Deuteronomy 22:28-29 New International Version (NIV)

28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, 29 he shall pay her father fifty shekels[a] of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

These are the types of religious values that Roy Moore / Donald Trump / etc., and his supporters want to preserve..

28 If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;

29 Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.


Wrong. Another failure of a BBT topic.

Simply paying for damages isn't punishment for a crime. So are you saying that Weinstein has already been punished enough because he's already paid settlements to the women that he's assaulted or harassed?

Of course it's part of the punishment. The man has to take care of the girl for the rest of his life. Being an unpure, unmarried female in those days was a life of destitution at best and a death sentence at worst.

No it doesn't, that one translation (which is known to be the less accurate) uses the word rape. The original text does not. This is a poor translation as having sex with a virgin outside of marriage is considered a "violation." This was said to make women impure and undesirable in those days, which is why this penalty exists. This is not discussing forcible rape.

the man only needs to pay her father if he rapes her in the countryside
if he rapes her in the city then the punishment if for her to be taken to the middle of town and have stones thrown at her until she is dead because if she wasnt a dirty whore who secretly wanted it god would have saved her

Even the version he uses has the phrase "they are discovered" which is quite telling. It makes it clear that is a mutual act.

Also rape had a different connotation in a lot of ancient texts, which could imply force, but also more of an elopement. I'm not sure if that is true in the Biblical context though.

Deuteronomy WAS the law, that's what you're not getting. The legal punishment for the crime of rape was paying compensation and taking care of the girl for the rest of your life. What the hell does Harvey Weinstein and the American justice system have to do with that? Nothing but an attempt to troll my character.

You're using the King James version, which is widely considered to be full of mistranslations.

The NRSV is considered by biblical scholars to be the best translation into English and it says this:
28 If a man meets a virgin who is not engaged, and seizes her and lies with her, and they are caught in the act, 29 the man who lay with her shall give fifty shekels of silver to the young womans father, and she shall become his wife. Because he violated her he shall not be permitted to divorce her as long as he lives.

The defense should not be "ahh a translation error!" but instead recognition that this, while considered barbaric in todays morals, was actually protection for women. If they had been raped, then she would struggle to get a husband and would continue to be a drain on her family's resources.
It's not even about what we should use today, it's literally a group of sermons Moses said to the Israelites, not what is relevant today.

Right, so according to the Bible, rape is okay as long as you do those things. AKA CONDONE.

Just like we CONDONE sexual harassment today - so long as the victims are compensated.

For people that support the death penalty - that's what they'd see it as. And jail is not compensation on the part of the perpetrator.

By that logic, all crime is okay as long as you spend a certain amount of time in jail afterwards.

Jail isn't compensation. The point of compensation is simply to pay for the damages, with no additional penalties. Jail doesn't do anything about that.

Civil suits for those crimes offer the victims and their families compensation. That's also part of our legal system.

Here's some context from the King James Bible bringing more light to what is being discussed in that chapter of the Bible since tc is intent on shit posting and twisting the reality of the situation.

These are laws put into place to try and make amends for transgressions against victims. Payment was made as part of it just like people in the US can sue for mental anguish outside of the actual infraction of the law. These laws looked out for women. While this last one isn't ideal and I wouldn't agree with it, I also have the mental capacity to understand context of the verse around the ones in the OP.

Society is paying for that removal - and therefore there's no compensation on the part of the perpetrator.

That's not a penalty, that's still compensation for taking away her honor. On the flip side, the girl, in being forced to marry her rapist, now must get raped by her rapist for the rest of her life.

The alternative is that she never gets married and when her parents die will be stuck out on her own.
It's the best option in a shitty situation.

There's a lot to complain about religion, but this is a weird hill to die on.

As @thanosibe has already shown, forced rape was punishable by death in the bible. And the woman was free to go because being raped wasn't a crime.

The scripture you are using means that if a man and a woman have sex out of wedlock, then the guy automatically has to marry her no matter what and can never leave her.

Even still, what does old law from millennia ago have to do with the law of today? Christians read the old testament, but follow the religion of the new testament as best as it fits in the world today. But even that does not define the laws we live by today as a nation.

You never have anything of value to post.

Not considered damaged property by God, but by the society at the time. Marriage was the one way of giving her at least a little hope she wouldn't be at the absolute bottom of society and a way to try and salvage a bad situation.
