No, that’s coming from the NIV version, which has been critique to death by scholars it’s not an accurate translation of this verse, because it uses the Hebrew term, for womb and the Hebrew term for a miscarriage, which can be found nowhere in the original Hebrew for Numbers 5.

Some versions translate “womb will miscarry” as “she will drop/lose her limb”, but that is because fetuses are considered an appendage of a woman and not a human being.
God supposedly killed everyone in sodom and gomora, and also nearly everyone on the planet with the great flood.

Look up Leviticus 27:6. God begins to value human life at one month of age. No value for the unborn. The Bible clearly says God commands that we are to care for the poor, the old, the immigrant, legal and illegal. The Bible absolutely does not say anything about banning abortion.

Hope that helps you maneuver our shared reality better.
I have been quoting numbers to a lot of people for many years. I even quoted it to my father, who happened to be a minister. He scowled at me yes, but he could not deny it. By the way, Adam and Eve who pro-choice as well. They were given the option eternal life or knowledge. They did not choose life.
They were made to choose life, it was predetermined. If God did not want them to eat the apple why did it exist in the center of the garden in the first place? Additionally, why was Satan in the garden? If you get a room put a bowl of candy in the middle of it and put a bunch of children in there and tell em not to eat it what are they going to do? Eat the darn candie. It's that simple. He wanted them to eat the apple it wouldn't have been there otherwise. IMHO, I think he wanted to create perfectly loyal beings and when he found out they weren't loyal he abandoned us to ourselves. Or did he.
So you're quoting a bible verse which shows God punishing sin? The passage is clearly upholds the sanctity of an unborn child.
I can deny it. That passage does not in any way certify abortion. It is a supernatural judgement ONLY to be used in a trial of adultery. And it would be GOD doing the miscarriage…because regular floor dust doesn’t cause abortion on its own…and ONLY if the women who drinks the dust-water committed adultery. The dust doesn’t know if she cheated on her husband or not.
that is from 1973 niv version. never once before that verison does it say the women is pregnant
@@swagraptor5477 The very next verse says she will conceive children implying she was never pregnant to begin with, most translations don’t use the term miscarriage, they say cause her thigh to rot or to shrivel, and the Hebrew term (fécheme) which is the term used for womb in the Masoretic text, and also the NIV is not a direct translation, and also the word Hebrew word for miscarriage is not present here either.
Some propose that Numbers 5:11-31 refers to God causing an abortion. The 2011 edition of the NIV mistakenly states that the drink will cause miscarriage in Numbers 5:21-22, 27. However, this is not what the passage is talking about. Pregnancy is nowhere mentioned, or even hinted at, in the text. The only thing that even sounds like pregnancy is the guilty wife’s stomach becoming bloated, but even in that instance, it has nothing to do with pregnancy. Further, the passage does not say that drinking the concoction would cause an abortion/miscarriage. While drinking a poisonous mixture of ingredients could very well cause a miscarriage, that is not what this text is speaking of.
Oh that's nice if you'd only have this same energy and learned about embryology and fetal development you'd figure out a fetus is not a baby! The main difference is that yours is an interpretation vs mine based on facts! 🤡
And the very next verse says she will conceive children implying that she wasn’t pregnant, and Hebrew term that’s used for miscarriage is nowhere in the original Hebrew for this verse ,neither is the Hebrew term for womb.

Personally,
1) I'm a male from Central Texas who is pro-choice, but I feel that it's ultimately a women's right/decision to take birth control & that Roe V. Wade should remain in effect as it currently is.
2) When it comes to the 1st & 2nd trimester, I don't agree with the argument that the baby is truly alive even with a heartbeat since it also lacks a brain, its lungs, & an immune system, which are needed to keep it alive (& something like this happened to a family member whom I won't mention by name).
3) I was born & raised Christian (specifically Baptist), & in The Bible there is a story in the Book of Numbers where a man believes his wife committed adultery, so he asked God for help & he was told by God to give his wife an elixir that would've aborted the child if it wasn't his, so this story proves that The Bible isn't against abortions.
4) I believe that once a baby is born it should have affordable medical care/coverage for its entire life since I'm pro-life in that regard & not just pro-birth of the baby.
5) I don't believe male politicians should be able to create laws regulating what women can or can't do with their own bodies when that sets a precedent for female politicians to create laws regulating what men can do to theirs.
You sound like Californian.
I am in this country for 18 years and still can’t process the fact why the abortion is government affair. I know money is the center of all discussions at the end of the day but there are other many issues that money is spent on. Why abortion is such passionate deal to republicans especially? I have only one answer so far- control. They want to control women. Mechanism of control never succeeds, females will fight.
You actually believe that the “elixir” on its own…made of nothing but dust and water…is able to not just cause an abortion…but ALSO differentiate in the woman’s behavior so that it ONLY causes the miscarriage of the woman committed adultery?
No no no. That’s not how things work. This is a supernatural event. The only way this would work if it was by God’s hand. Only God would know that the woman had done the deed…and God himself would have to cause the abortion to happen.
The whole process existed as a sign to the people. Everyone would know that dust water would NOT cause a miscarriage by default. And so if the process was followed as ordered and the miscarriage happened…then it would be divine proof that the woman committed adultery.
This is a supernatural trial. It is not a green light for abortion.
This mistranslations from the 70s. The others recognize this as making her barren. Read a normal translation & you'll see in verse 28 it's before the seed has been conceived. I thought we should make laws about killing people.

Jumping in with my 2 cents - The passage in question, (Numbers 5) is contextually speaking about an old ceremonial ritual that the Israelites used when they suspected that someone may be cheating in a marriage. It’s critical to understand that what is described as taking place in this passage is very different from what we see with regards to our modern day abortion debate. The ceremony/ritual was their way of getting to the bottom of figuring out the truth in a “tricky” marriage situation. It wasn’t specifically about ending a pregnancy, and it should be noted that that’s not even mentioned in the text itself (if you go back and read it contextually you see that it's speaking of some type of curse).
Now I get it, many reading this may be Bible skeptics or may not exactly hold the Bible in high regard. I got you. But as with any ancient text or commentary, you have to understand the cultural context and environment of the time it speaks of. Here the passage is giving a descriptive account of how those people believed and how they lived back then. As snapshot in time so to speak, far different from our time today.
With that said, for those who do hold and adhere to the Bible and it’s teachings, it’s important to remember that not all passages are “Prescriptive” as some are “descriptive” of the times, as the one above. Number 5 should be views considering the bigger picture of the Bible (and numerous supporting verses/scriptures); where there are countless teachings on the value and sanctity of life. Taking a holistic and intentional approach to properly interpreting what the Bible is truly saying in a given passage (what was the message that the original author was trying to convey, and how would that original audience have understood/interpreted that message) can help us truly understand and navigate the trickier parts.
So in essence, Numbers 5 is an interesting read indeed (especially as a historical descriptive narrative of the time). But it is not a direct say on today’s abortion debate. Context is king!
Again, this is my 2 cents. I hope this adds to the discussion as a view to be considered in open and respectful dialogue.

Hey! Very interesting argument. Can you provide the Bible translation used for this passage?
If it really supports abortion then you could use any translation but you can't, because it doesn't. The uncorrupt versions talk about if the wife has cheated on her husband, she will never be able to conceive but if she hasn't cheated, she will be able to conceive, implying that she ISN'T pregnant yet. There is no baby to abort.

@@reezoe164 you must be a right winger because y'all seem to NOT understand the word hypocrisy these day. Let me school you.. When someone tells you something that they don't practice themselves, that's call hypocrisy and it destroys your credibility. So if you're trying to prove to me the existence of someone and they're teachings and as you're trying to do this their teachings start to NOT match up with their actions then the hypocrisy in their actions starts to discredit that they exist at all or that everything else from here on out that they say is true. Why would a God who seeks to be ones spiritual and moral mentor who's trying to save you immortal soul abandon his teachings and start committing the same sins he's supposedly trying to keep you from committing in order to get to heaven? A true God would understand that this moral break in his character would cause disbelief of his existence from those humans who logically think for themselves because at this point you'd have to be brainwashed to dismiss all his sins and continue to follow his teachings that he doesn't follow himself just because he claims to be God. An all powerful God who supportedly created the entire universe and existence of man should NEVER under any circumstances have to commit the hideous acts that this supposed God of love, forgiveness, and compassion did in this Bible. Him and his followers broke a large amount of his 10 commandment throughout the Bible. He broke the very first one on many occasions which was thou shalt NOT kill. He personally committed more sins in the Bible than the devil he tries to discry all thoughout the Bible did. Go reread your Bible and find out the truth and that's this God was not full of supposed light and truth like this Bible claims he was. You can't be committing mass murder one minute and the next minute be claiming that killing people is a sin and then the next minute be justifying the stoning of others for shit like foraging on the sabbath day like he did with Mosses right after he gave him the 10 commandments, with the first rule being thou shalt NOT kill. Now miss me with your nonsense because the Bible is just as full of hypocrites as these churches are these days. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, huh?

Except this means the woman is unfaithful, it doesn't necessarily mean she became pregnant. It implies the wife cheating and is therefore cursed by the priest to not be able to become pregnant.

Context is important.
Without it, one cannot understand the basic written Word or words in general, much less concepts.
God is hence merciful as shown in the text read by Cenk (even if he was a bit snarkey during side commentary). ☺️You'll see this mercy (it being obvious if one cares about context) - if not, one will remain blind even to what's clear and obvious...especifically, the text itself.
If the aim is not understanding, one cannot be humbled nor much less meek...thus making inheriting the Kingdom quit more difficult.
God bless ma peeps! 🙏 ❤️
Your Christianese is cute and folksy, and I'm sure you're a nice person, but you're wrong.
"Out of context" is probably THE most common excuse Christian apologists make when they got bupkis. (You’re not the only one who can do “folksy”!)
The context is that “GAWD will impart his mighty wrath because your husband OWNS you!”
Whatever you think about this, it’s not a modern “moral guide”, it’s an ancient one, when women were like cattle. I get that lots of Christians have trouble being told what your own Holy Book actually says/means by non-believers (or former ones), but you DO realize that this “pro-life” stuff has a fairly well-known origin, politically speaking in America, right?
Just as Christians tend not to know what’s in their Bible, they also tend not to know much about RECENT RW history for some reason.

Of Note: Once again, no consequences for the man/men involved.
If you would actually read the Bible you will see that it says men who commit adultery should be executed.
You do realize that this ritual will not work, don't you. A combination of holy water and dust from the temple floor will NOT produce a potion which will figure out if the woman has been unfaithful and punish her if she does. The purpose of the ritual is to set the jealous husband's mind at ease, or may be scare the woman into confessing. But magic potion, NO!
The operative words are that the priest will tell her.
False: After she reacts they say "shall enter" twice & the male will show all the same signs. Their face pales, eyes do something, body becomes full of veins.
Numbers 5:11-31 is about a woman that is suspected of adultery, in verse 28 it said if she is found innocent she shall conceive children

Exodus 21:22-23
“And when they strive together men and they injure woman pregnant so that they go out children of her but not he is mortal injury to fine he shall be fined. As he shall place on him husband of the woman and he shall give on judgements. But if harm he is then you shall give life in place of life” (The Hebrew-English Interlinear ESV Old Testament; Literal reading)
This passage is about a violent argument between men, where there is a pregnant woman present near them. During this struggle, the woman is somehow “injured” (nâgaph, which can also include fatal injuries), which caused the “children (masculine plural, boys), to “come out” (yâtsâ’) of the woman. It is clear from the Hebrew, that the “mortal injury” is of the children, and not the woman, as we have the masculine, singular, “’âsôn” used, as the ESV rightly reads, “he is”. “’âsôn” is used in the Old Testament for serious, and even fatal injuries.
The Hebrew “wə·yā·ṣə·’ū yə·lā·ḏe·hā”, literally, “children come out”, is translated as “to miscarry”, or, “born prematurely”, or “fruit depart”, or “come out”, etc, in our English Versions. The masculine plural, shows that there is more than one boy in the womans womb.
In verse 23, “’âsôn” is used to show that either, one, or both of the boys died from the result of the injuries sustained by the woman, during this violent argument between the two men. It is clear, “then you shall give life in place of life”, which is a requirement of death, and not injury.
It is clear from verse 23, that if the child, or children, died, which can only mean, “to miscarry”, and not as some English translations read, “she gives birth prematurely”, as in the NASB, as this does not mean that the child or children, did not live. “she has a miscarriage”, is used in these Versions: NAB; NASB 1977; Douay-Rheims Bible; NRSV; Lasma Syriac Bible; The Contemporary Torah, JPS, 2006, etc
Abortion in the Bible is MURDER
No, Sir! You have inappropriately misinterpreted the context of this passage. You see, you have a presupposition that Moses is writing about "abortion". This is called "Eisegesis" Which means - to insert ones own ideas rather than the intended meaning. Moses is not talking about the topic of abortion here. Cenk is reading from the NIV and also he is skipping verses which is improper hermeneutics. Although improper lets continue. He asserts that "the priest is causing a misscarriage" but fails to recognize the orginal meaning of the word "miscarry" in verse 21. The word "Womb" in vs 21 is the Hebrew word ירכ (yerekh) which means thigh, loin, side, or base and the word "miscarry" in Hebrew is נפלת(nofelet) which means to fall away.. The ESV and LSB translation renders it better ("your thigh fall away and your body swells"). The usage of the word "miscarry" is probably to aid the 21 century reader to understand that a prevention or a hault if you will (in reference to only a woman) will take place because of her sin. So... it is an inappropriate interpretation when Cenk says "The priest caused her to have a misscarriage" when the passage asserts no such thing. The NIV is a reliable translation but misses the mark here with the word usage. The entire context is about the disciplinary actions when there is lying after commiting infidelity in the marriage which both are in direct disobedience against the LORD. Also, there is no where in the text that implies that conception had taken place after the adultery had taken place. These are warning passages to infidelity in a marriage and the LORD is most certainly not affirming the killing of children in the womb in order to present "abortion" as truth. Cenk is not a Christian according to the Scriptures and he needs to repent according to the Scriptures. He says so himself. I encourage anyone to the read the passage in context and allow the orginal writer to speak. You wouldn't want someone misinterpreting your book(Especially someone who radically disagrees with you from the start) with their biases in mind would you? I pray this would help and if anything sticks I pray it is this "the pursuit of the authors intended meaning should be paramount". God bless.
Many Christians mistranslate and attach meaning to the bible's writing that may or may not be the writer's message all the time. Usually literal because it's the most obvious for even the most simple minded. It doesn't matter to me if Cenk is misinterpreting it for that reason. I also trust the Christian religion the least of all religions along with it's clergy & followers for many reasons that are justified. Many Christians read only what is directed in church at the time rather than reading it themselves in their spare time so if a pastor wants to, they can avoid the text that seemingly contradicts one of the religion's beliefs.

This is talking about a Woman cheating on her husband, this isn’t about a woman going out of her way to abort a child due to sexual impurity. You’re in a covenant with your husband, and should be loyal and faithful throughout that marriage.

“You shall not murder.”
Leviticus 24:17
“Whoever takes a human life shall surely be put to death”
Psalm 139:13-16
“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them”
Romans 1:28-32
“And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know God's decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.”
Abortion and Miscarriage are two different things.

But yet in the Gospels, upon hearing the sound of Mary's voice, the baby in Elizabeth's womb leapt for joy. In Chapter 1 of Jeremiah, God tells Abraham, Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. Furthermore, there's a big difference between a miscarriage, which is a tragedy, and an abortion, which is an intentional act of murder.
And to add to that, God gives us free will! The will to make your own decisions, your choice! And if God allows us to live freely, who is the Government to stop others from doing what they will🤷🤦 They are trying overthrow everything that God has already put in place! It's our decision on how we live our life, what decisions we make, because he gave us free will!
Are you OK with killing a newborn? What about the creature 1 minute before giving birth? 2 hours? 1 month? 3 months? Where is the line? Isn't the creature a totally different human from the mother, with a unique DNA, after the moment of conception? Are you OK with killing a human in its most vulnerable state? What about a baby that is not needed by a mother? Is it OK to abandon the kid if she does not want it?

@@kuba2ve I understand what you're saying, however, you have to understand that even in the Bible that flat-out says that the baby is nothing more than water for the first forty days in the bible, in the Quran it's 120 days the Catholic church is the one that says it's a viable human being at conception not the Bible but it's the church that is ran by old white men that believe women are nothing more than a vessel to give them pleasure and a child and if they don't give him pleasure or a child they're worthless!!!
And when I say Bible I mean Bible... I am not talking about the King James version of it, which by the way is not a Bible!!!
If I am or not it's my decision! Who are you to judge? God is my judge, he has the final say. Everyone has sinned, even you. We're you okay with the decision you made to do what you wanted? Yes you did! That's no different from someone choosing to have an abortion! God forgives all, even you! Sweep around your own front door, before trying to sweep around someone else's.... Make sure you have your business right with God, he will be judging you for the things you've done, and you alone😜
When HE makes your womb miscarry... it says NOTHING ABOUT US ALLOWING OURSELVES TO MISCARRY or Abort. BE CAREFUL WHEN RECITING SCRIPTURE. Nowhere in there does it prove that he approves us to make those decisions for ourselves...
This isn't even a correct translation. The translations before the 70s understand this is talking about being made barren. Amen on still having the correct point. Even in places where God kills it's not like giving man permission to.

First, it is in Numbers 5 not 11 and the word in Hebrew does not say miscarriage at all. It refers more to her becoming barren and not being able to have children if she is found guilty.
Bible also says that killing a pregnant woman is a bigger crime than killing a non pregnant woman. Pretty sure in most countries its also the case. At least in US i think

I just read this recently, but the Southern Baptist Convention was apparently officially pro-choice until 1976. I've also seen reference to statements made by Billy Graham that he stood with Planned Parenthood, inferring that he was in support of abortion rights. His son Franklin is a big-time right-winger and it's also been implied it's not a stretch that he would do his best to remove that kind of info.
@@chrisazure1624 Margaret Sanger, the founder, was strongly associated with abortion rights, but it was illegal until 1972. They became the largest provider of abortions in the US after that. Frank Schaeffer, who worked for his dad Francis in opposing abortion and knew Billy personally, said he was always pro-choice, like many or most evangelicals until the 80s. It wasn't that he wanted everyone to go out and get an abortion, he saw it as a complex issue that needed more than a black or white approach.
@@rocketreindeer She was associated with eugenics, racism and birth control.
I think back then it was thought only for the health and sanity of the mother and not as birth control after the fact.
@@chrisazure1624 Yes eugenics is evil and wrong, and she coasted with paternalistic attitudes toward Black and other people, but it depends who you ask on how racist she was. MLK spoke positively of her. But none of that changes the fact Billy Graham, according to people who knew him, was pro-choice, as were evangelicals generally. The anti-abortion movement was seen as a Catholic thing until around the 80s. Again, it was not that they were excited and thrilled about abortions, they saw it as a complex, multilayered issue that families needed to decide.

I see still misrepresenting (Numbers 5), first of all I just love how you’re like read your Bible, yeah why don’t you actually read the very next verse which says she will conceive children implying that she wasn’t pregnant, and again this is an absolutely terrible example even if the term being used what is in fact miscarriage which it’s not, because you’re quoting from the NIV I can tell because of the wording, the NIV is not a direct translation, and also most translations don’t use the term miscarriage, they say cause her thigh to rot or cause, or caused her to be infertile, and I’ve even seen some translations that Psyco has her fighter shrivel, as well. the Hebrew term for womb, (recheim) isn’t in (Numbers 5), at all anywhere in the Mazzarella text, which is the manuscript at the old testament in the book of numbers is based on, this only took me about 12 minutes to figure out, Plus reading the verse, in context unlike you, really professional journalist 100% facts guy Cenk Uygur, couldn’t bother to do12 minutes of research, I mean you made that first video like seven years ago for crying out loud, that’s amazing.

Also most versions of the Bible dont say this. This particular version translation implies and that "womb swell" as an euphemism for miscarriage. Majority translations don't interrept like this but of course Cenk will fail to ignore the overwhelming majority that oppose his point.
Most versions of the Bible do say this.
They use different words in translation, but even the most obscured and apologetic translations still make it very clear what is being said.
If you want to quibble semantics of ancient euphemism, I've got a Behemoth to discuss with you, but don't try to deny the context of the Ordeal of the Bitter Water, you'll look very foolish.
@@PuffyCloud_aka_puffeclaude I'm sorry just checked NASB KJV among others all support my point. The actual phrase is "thigh to rot" which has been translated into miscarriage, the actual meaning is the punishment for the women is she can't ever conceive a child.

NIV which has been highly discredited. The word miscarriage isn't correct & wasn't in any copies before the 70s. In reality what this does is make the woman barren. There's more that goes with the curse, for her & the guy, but miscarriage instead of being made barren is the part they're messing up.

You should read that passage in Exodus again because it says that if the woman gives birth prematurely and no harm is done then he pays at the judge determines BUT if any harm (to the child) follows then he shall give life for life, acknowledging that the child in the womb is a life and ending that life is murder.
If men fight, and hurt a woman with child, so that she gives birth prematurely, yet no harm follows, he shall surely be punished accordingly as the woman’s husband imposes on him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.

This is only the second time I’ve ever come across this from someone that’s pro-choice even .

Thank you for posting this. Those of us in America who support women's right to sovereignty over their own bodies (the vast majority of us) need to just go ahead and memorize this and the other Biblical passages that support abortion... i.e., the lines about how the punishment for striking a woman and causing a miscarriage is a simple monetary fine... because the Bible, and therefore God, regard fetuses as 'property' and NOT as 'human life'. There's also the bit about life beginning at first breath... but the passage and interpretation of those lines is less immediately clear, so perhaps less usable, since the 'audience' is overtly hostile and won't sit through a long textual analysis.
Basically, we need to be able to say, "But the bible supports abortion" and "The bible regards beating another man's wife, and causing a miscarriage, to be a property crime, punishable by a fine, while it regards killing a human as murder, punishable by execution. We have to destroy their ability to say they oppose abortion for 'religious' reasons, so we can move the conversation to where it belongs, about personal sovereignty over one's own body, or 'security of person', as it is referred to in the 'Universal Declaration of Human Rights'.
Exodus 21:22-25 - If you cause a miscarriage or abortion by committing assault you must be punished by paying a monetary fine.
Genesis 9:6, AND Leviticus 24:17, AND Exodus 21:12 - If you kill a human, you should be punished by execution.
Vast majority don't translate that to miscarriage, it's to make barren. & in verse 28 it even says she can "...then...conceive seed" which is when life starts. By yours & the scientific standard the baby should equally have rights to their body.
@@vashmatrix5769 Hmm. No. Even if you weren't wildly mistaken about 'when' a fetus becomes a 'human' (go ahead and remind us of when, during the pregnancy, you think that is, and why...) but no 'human' has the right to 'another humans' body. Even if anyone agreed with you that cell-masses and zygotes were actually 'people' (which, again, the VAST MAJORITY does NOT), then ONE 'person' does not have the right to use ANOTHER person's body as a 'life-support system'. No matter which way you want it to be, no one has the right to anyone else's body.
@@yishnir look up oxford. All you did was list stages of human or animal development. If you're talking about a human mother, they're only carrying a human baby. 2nd, yes people do have rights to another's body, people conjoined for example, while ironically you're trying to say the mother has right over the babies body. Majority recognize conception is when life starts, also majority doesn't make morality, but we do see the same party still wanting to treat people as property & deny their human rights.
@@vashmatrix5769 Plus, we're only saying that other people don't have the right to *kill* another person. The "no right to anyone else's body" argument is a strawman argument.

There's also a story in Exodus that says if a woman gets in a fight with her neighbor and she miscarries, the neighbor pays a fine to the HUSBAND bc the fetus is HIS property. If she dies, then it's a life for a life (plus a fine to the husband, she's still property)
'The Bible is a book about men, for men, by men.' F.S.
Exodus 21:22
“If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.”
Galatians 3:13
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:”
“Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? “For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's” (1 Cor. 6:19-20)

False. They get put to death. Also this makes a woman barren, not miscarry. Try any other translation before the 70s & read verse 28.

The Bible verses were referring to a miscarriage, not a still born, and not an abortion.
Therefore, this was a wizardly 0:25 magical play using the elusive play on one word; the word did not even sound the same and meant something differently.
I have another way of looking at it. Take Jeremiah 1 : 5. This is about predestination.
That, together with the fact God is the only one that makes the final Judgement (Numbers), Man should not interfere in the choice of a woman. She will have to face justice from somebody higher than Man.

Actually the verse in Numbers in most translations does not refer to miscarriage. Only the New International Version does. You will not find a single translation that references it because most scholars agree that it actually refers to barrenness and has therefor nothing to do with an induced miscarriage but rather infertility.
If it has to do with barrenness then why would the priest mix a potion and give it to the woman who was committing infidelity?
@@Beverley30333 Because if she is guilty it makes her infertile. It would literally not make any sense for this form of testimony to be applied because not all adulterous women become pregnant. It makes a lot more sense that as punishment she would not be able to bear children anymore.

@@Beverley30333 it was to test if she had been faithful to her husband, and the very next verse says she will conceive children implying that she wasn’t pregnant.
