Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father’s house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.
Entonces llevarán a la joven a la entrada de la casa de su padre, y los hombres de su ciudad la apedrearán hasta que muera, porque cometió un acto vergonzoso en Israel al ser sexualmente inmoral mientras estaba en la casa de su padre. De esta manera quitarán el mal de entre ustedes.
La ley prescribía la pena de muerte por lapidación para la inmoralidad sexual prematrimonial como forma de eliminar el mal de la comunidad.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This law was part of the detailed legal code given to Israel as they prepared to enter the Promised Land around 1400 BC. Ancient Near Eastern societies had strict laws about sexual purity, especially for women, as family honor and inheritance lines were considered crucial for social stability. These laws were given to a theocratic nation where civil and religious law were unified under God's direct rule.
