He gave them his daughters and they turned around and raped him.  If you think the Bible is misogynistic, then you misread it.  It is highly supportive of women.  Especially considering the time in which it was written.   How many female heroes does it have, even in the Old Testament?   Were not men punished for mistreatment of women?   Who did Jesus have as his first witnesses to his resurrection?  How does Paul suggest men treat their wives?  Is that suggestion of Paul's one of the things from the Bible that is not to be taken literally?  Do you say that Jesus is not alive today?   Is Jesus a liar?   Do you think that people that take the Bible literally are also not looking for the Spirit of the Bible (BTW, He is also known as the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity.)?  It is also a timeless document if it is taken literally.
