Verse 22
If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband ,..... This law respects adultery, and is the same with that in Leviticus 20:10 .
then they shall both of them die ; with the strangling of a napkin, as the Targum of Jonathan, which is the death such persons were put to; and is always meant when death is simply spoken of, and it is not specified what death; See Gill on Leviticus 20:10 ,
both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman ; they were both to die, and to die the same death:
so shalt thou put away evil from Israel ; such that do it, as the above Targum; See Gill on Deuteronomy 22:21 .
