wbs@Deuteronomy:21:16 @ Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not prefer the son of the beloved first-born, before the son of the hated, which is indeed the first-born:
wbs@Deuteronomy:21:17 @ But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated for the first-born, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the first-born is his.
wbs@Deuteronomy:21:18 @ If a man shall have a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and who, when they have chastened him, will not hearken to them:

wbs@Deuteronomy:21:23 @ His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land may not be defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

wbs@Deuteronomy:22:14 @ And give occasions of speech against her, and bring an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid:
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:15 @ Then shall the father of the damsel, and her mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity to the elders of the city in the gate:
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:16 @ And the damsel's father shall say to the elders, I gave my daughter to this man for a wife, and he hateth her,
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:17 @ And lo, he hath given occasions of speech against her, saying, I found not thy daughter a maid; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city.

wbs@Deuteronomy:22:19 @ And they shall amerce him in a hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the damsel, because he hath brought an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days.
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:20 @ But if this thing shall be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel:
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:21 @ 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 may die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to be guilty of lewdness in her father's house: so shalt thou remove evil from among you.
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:22 @ If a man shall be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou remove evil from Israel.
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:23 @ If a damsel that is a virgin shall be betrothed to a husband, and a man shall find her in the city, and lie with her;
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:24 @ Then ye shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they may die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbor's wife: so thou shalt remove evil from among you.
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:25 @ But if a man shall find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man shall force her, and lie with her; then the man only that lay with her shall die:
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:26 @ But to the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbor, and slayeth him, even so is this matter:
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:27 @ For he found her in the field, and the betrothed damsel cried, and there was none to save her.
wbs@Deuteronomy:22:28 @ If a man shall find a damsel that is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
