Deuteronomy 22

COA1655

Deuteronomy 22:5

Not weare] That difference of Apparel, to distinguish the Sexes, must be observed, and never broken; except in case of necessity, and for some present pinch, some weighty and urgent occasion, as to evade and avoid a sudden mischief; and the like.

Deuteronomy 22:28

If a man] Is understood of an unmarried man, and a Virgin not betrothed: as likewise that is, Exod. XXII. 16, 17. The difference is in inticing her there; and in laying hold on her here, though not violently to ravish her. And therefore the Offender is ordered and punished somewhat lesse there; and more here.
