And the man that committeth adultery with another man’s wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
Si un hombre comete adulterio con la esposa de otro hombre—si comete adulterio con la esposa de su prójimo—tanto el adúltero como la adúltera deben ser condenados a muerte.
El adulterio era castigado con la pena de muerte tanto para el hombre como para la mujer según la ley antigua.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This command was part of the holiness code given to Israel through Moses around 1440 BC, establishing civil and religious laws for the newly formed nation. In ancient Near Eastern cultures, adultery was seen as a severe violation of marriage covenant and community order, often carrying harsh penalties. These laws were designed to create a holy society that reflected God's character and maintained social stability in the wilderness and promised land.
