Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour’s wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.
Entonces llevarán a ambos a la puerta de la ciudad y los apedrearán hasta que mueran—a la joven porque no gritó pidiendo ayuda estando en la ciudad, y al hombre porque violó a la esposa de su prójimo. Así quitarán el mal de en medio de ustedes.
La ley antigua prescribía la pena de muerte para el adulterio como forma de eliminar el mal de la comunidad.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This passage is part of Moses' legal code given to Israel around 1400 BC, addressing various civil and moral laws for their society. In ancient Near Eastern cultures, adultery was considered a serious crime that threatened family structure and community stability. The assumption was that in a city, if a woman didn't cry out, she was a willing participant rather than a victim.
