Contextual Overview

¹³When a man takes a wife, and has gone in to her, and hated her, ¹⁴and laid evil deeds of words against her, and brought out an evil name against her, and said, I have taken this woman, and I draw near to her, and I have not found proofs of virginity in her; ¹⁵then the father of the girl, and her mother, have taken and brought out the girl's proofs of virginity to [the] elderly of the city in the gate, ¹⁶and the father of the girl has said to the elderly, I have given my daughter to this man for a wife, and he hates her; ¹⁷and behold, he has laid evil deeds of words, saying, I have not found proofs of virginity for your daughter—and these [are] the proofs of virginity of my daughter! And they have spread out the garment before [the] elderly of the city. ¹⁸And [the] elderly of that city have taken the man, and discipline him,¹⁹and fined him one hundred pieces of silver, and given [them] to the father of the girl, because he has brought out an evil name on a virgin of Israel; and she is to him for a wife—he is not able to send her away [for] all his days. ²⁰And if this thing has been truth—proofs of virginity have not been found for the girl— ²¹then they have brought out the girl to the opening of her father's house, and the men of her city have stoned her with stones and she has died, for she has done folly in Israel, to go whoring [in] her father's house; and you have put away evil out of your midst. ²²When a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then both of them have died—the man who is lying with the woman, and the woman; and you have put away evil out of Israel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the elders of that city shall take the man, and chastise him. Not with words, but blows. Jarchi interprets it of beating, and so does the Talmud x; and both the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan render it,

"shall beat him;''

that is, with the beating or scourging of forty stripes, save one.

x T. Bab. Cetubot, fol. 46. 1.
