Deuteronomy:21:15-21
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:15 @ "If a man has two wives, the one loved and the other disliked, and they have borne him children, both the loved and the disliked, and if the first-born son is hers that is disliked,
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:16 @ then on the day when he assigns his possessions as an inheritance to his sons, he may not treat the son of the loved as the first-born in preference to the son of the disliked, who is the first-born,
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:17 @ but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the disliked, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the first issue of his strength; the right of the first-born is his.
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:18 @ "If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and, though they chastise him, will not give heed to them,
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:19 @ then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gate of the place where he lives,
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:20 @ and they shall say to the elders of his city, `This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.'
rsv@Deuteronomy:21:21 @ Then all the men of the city shall stone him to death with stones; so you shall purge the evil from your midst; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
