Thus says the Lord: I will raise up trouble against you from within your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes, and give them to your neighbour, and he shall lie with your wives in the sight of this very sun. 12 For you did it secretly; but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun. (2 Samuel 12:11-12)
For debate: If a husband commits adultery, is justice served by having the adulterer's wives raped?

God's Justice
Post #1In case anyone is wondering... The avatar quote states the following:
"I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness."

Re: God's Justice
Post #61Bumping this topic back to the top. Apparently, (God's justice) is to have an adulterer's wives raped, as punishment. I guess this means it's "just"? If so, why? I know this introduces the topic of the "Euthyphro dilemma", but hey, I guess it is what it is....
