- after the manner of adulteresses:
- "That¹ they have committed adultery,ª° and bloodª [is] in their hands,ª and with¹ their idolsª have they committed adultery,ª° and have also¹ caused¹ their sons,ª whom¹ they bareª° unto me, to pass for them throughª° [the fire], to devourª [them]. ... For when they had slainª°¹ their childrenª to their idols,ª then they cameª° the same¹ dayª into¹ my sanctuaryª to profaneª° it; and, lo,¹ thus¹ have they doneª° in the midstª of mine house.ª" {Ezk 23:37-39} + "And I will judgeª° thee, as women that break wedlockª° and shedª° bloodª are judged;ª and I will giveª° thee bloodª in furyª and jealousy.ª ... Because¹¹ thou hast not¹ rememberedª°¹ the daysª of thy youth,ª but hast frettedª° me in all¹ these¹ [things]; behold,ª therefore I¹ also¹ will recompenseª° thy wayª upon [thine] head,ª saithª° the Lordª GOD:ª and thou shalt not¹ commitª°¹ this lewdnessª above¹ all¹ thine abominations.ª" {Ezk 16:38-43} + "And the manª that¹ committeth adulteryª° with¹ [another] man'sª wife,ª [even he] that¹ committeth adulteryª° with¹ his neighbour'sª wife,ª the adultererª° and the adulteressª° shall surely²° be put to death.ª°" {Lev 20:10} + "And the daughterª of anyª priest,ª if¹ she profane²° herself¹ by playing the whore,ª° she¹ profanethª°¹ her father:ª she shall be burntª° with fire.ª" {Lev 21:9} + "Then they shall bring outª°¹ the damselª to¹ the doorª of her father'sª house,ª and the men²¹ of her cityª shall stoneª° her with stonesª that she die:ª° because¹ she hath wroughtª° follyª in Israel,ª to play the whoreª° in her father'sª house:ª so shalt thou put²° evil² awayª°¹ from amongª¹ you. ... Then ye shall bring²° them both² out¹¹¹ unto¹ the gateª of that¹ city,ª and ye shall stoneª° them with stonesª that they die;ª°¹ the damsel,ª becauseªª¹ she criedª° not,¹ [being] in the city;ª and the man,ª becauseªª¹ he hath humbledª°¹ his neighbour'sª wife:ª so thou shalt put awayª° evilª from amongª¹ you." {Deu 22:21-24} + "Soª whenª they continuedª° askingª° him,ª he lifted up¹ himself,²° and saidª° untoª them,ª He that is without sinª among you,ª let him²° firstª castª° a stoneª atª her.ª" {Jhn 8:7}
