Contextual Overview

16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife. 17 If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins. 18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. 19 Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death. 20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the Lord only, he shall be utterly destroyed. 21 Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. 22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child. 23 If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry; 24 And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ver. 19 cualquiera que liete con una bestia ,. De la misma manera como hombre y mujer, por copulación carnal; Este es un crimen tan detestable y abominable, tan impactante y deshonroso para la naturaleza humana, que uno pensaría que nunca podría ser cometido por ninguna de las especies humanas, y que no había ninguna ocasión para hacer una ley contra ella; pero, tal es la depravación y la corrupción de la humanidad, que la sabiduría divina lo vio necesario, y, para disuadirlo, lo hizo la muerte, como sigue; tal uno.

seguramente se pondrá a la muerte ; Ninguna misericordia le mostró él, ningún perdón o relevo le dio el magistrado civil: según el Targum de Jonathan, la muerte de una persona que tal persona estaba soltando, porque parafrase las palabras,.

"Será asesinado con el casting de piedras. ''.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verso Éxodo 22:19. Cohabitare con una bestia... Si este crimen tan abominable no hubiera sido común, nunca se habría mencionado en un código sagrado de leyes. Es muy probable que haya sido una práctica egipcia ; y es seguro, según un relato de los viajes de Sonnini, que se practica en Egipto hasta el día de hoy.
