'Necessary' in the Bible

If anyone thinks he is acting inappropriately toward his virgin, if she is past the bloom of youth and it seems necessary, he should do what he wishes; he does not sin. Let them marry.

If anyone imagines that he knows and understands anything [of divine matters, without love], he has not yet known as he ought to know.

For indeed it is necessary that there be factions among you, in order that those who are approved may become evident among you.

Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

for the spirits of prophets are subject to the prophets [the prophecy is under the speaker’s control, and he can stop speaking];

For it is necessary [for] this perishable [body] to put on incorruptibility, and this mortal [body] to put on immortality.
