Verse 22
"If a man be found lying with a woman married to a husband, then they shall both of them die, the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so thou shalt put away the evil from Israel."
Many have commented upon the fact of the impartiality of God's law given here in that both the man and the woman were condemned to death. Christ removed the death penalty for this offence (John 8:1-8), but, it is still totally contrary to the will of God and prohibited, absolutely, in the N.T. The penalties for violation are transferred from the administration of earthly courts and reserved for the final judgment of all people.
