申命記 22:20-22 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:13-30

Chastity. The Mosaic Law is strict and stern in its requirement of purity in all that pertains to the marriage relation. Its strictness, however, is united with a fine sense of justice, and its shield is, as usual, extended for the protection of the innocent. I. THE DEFAMED WIFE . ( Deuteronomy 22:13-19 .) No act can be conceived more cruel or dastardly than that of a man who groundlessly assails his wife's character, accusing her of ante-nuptial unchastity. As the matter was... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:13-30

Expedients to secure purity. We have here various wise expedients to control the licentiousness of the people, and secure, so far as possible, social purity. I. DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER WAS SEVERELY PUNISHED . A husband could not, with impunity, defame a newly married wife; for should there be proof forthcoming that his charge was false, he was to be publicly chastised, to pay a fine of one hundred shekels of silver to his father-in-law, whoso good name and peace he had... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:22-29

Four cases are here distinguished. 1. That of a married woman who has been unfaithful; in this case both the woman and her paramour are, when detected, to be put to death ( Deuteronomy 22:22 ). 2. That of a virgin betrothed who is assailed in a town, where she might have cried for protection, but did not; in this case also both were to be punished with death as adulterers ( Deuteronomy 22:23 , Deuteronomy 22:24 ). 3. That of a virgin betrothed who has been forcibly violated... read more

Various penalties for unchastity. Purity in domestic life is at the root of national prosperity. I. THE NEGLECT OF VIRTUE 'S SAFEGUARDS IS GUILT . ( Deuteronomy 22:24 .) If a sentinel recklessly leave open a portal in the beleaguered city, it is treason; it is as if he had betrayed his king. To see a house on flame, and to give no warning, is to become accountable for the destruction of a city. To neglect the physician's counsel in time of disease is to be guilty of... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Deuteronomy 22:1-30

Laws of love and purity (22:1-30)A collection of miscellaneous laws reminds the people of some everyday responsibilities. They had to go out of their way to help others (22:1-4); they were not to dress in a way that would encourage immorality (5); they were to be thoughtful for the safety of others, birds and animals as well as people (6-8); and they were not to restrict the productivity of their crops through wrong practices, or shorten the lives of their working animals through cruelty... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Deuteronomy 22:22

"If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so thou shalt put away the evil from Israel."Many have commented upon the fact of the impartiality of God's law given here in that both the man and the woman were condemned to death. Christ removed the death penalty for this offence (John 8:1-8), but, it is still totally contrary to the will of God and prohibited, absolutely, in the N.T. The penalties for... read more

Ver. 21. Then they shall bring out the damsel, &c.— As a disgrace to her parents, who had not taken better care to preserve her chastity, she was to be punished at their door, having committed the crime in their house. read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Deuteronomy 22:13-30

The marriage relationship 22:13-30Moses considered seven types of cases in these verses.The first case (Deuteronomy 22:13-19) is of a man who marries a woman and then falsely charges her with being a harlot (not being a virgin when he married her). If the girl could prove her virginity, her husband would have to pay a large fine (cf. 2 Samuel 24:24) to her father and remain married to the girl. Note that his law clarifies that God permitted divorce among the Israelites in some situations... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Deuteronomy 22:1-30

Laws regarding Lost Property, Distinction of Sex in Apparel, and Chastity1-4. Law of Lost Property: see Exodus 23:4 and note.5. ’God is not the author of confusion,’ and the natural distinctions He Himself has appointed ought to be respected. Whatever contravenes the law of nature contravenes the law of God: cp. the principle laid down by St. Paul in 1 Corinthians 11:3-16. Immodesty leads to immorality. There may be an allusion here to the unchaste practices connected with certain idolatrous... read more
