Deuteronomy 22:27 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 22:27

For he found her in the field
Which is a circumstance in her favour, from which it might he presumed that she was forced, and did not consent; for had the sin been committed by agreement, they would doubtless have betook themselves to another place: and the betrothed damsel cried as it might be concluded from the above circumstance she did, and as she herself declared, and which he could not gainsay, or however disprove:

and there was none to save her;
to help her against him, and deliver her out of his hands.

Deuteronomy 22:27 In-Context

25 But if the man encounters the engaged woman in the open country, and he seizes and rapes her, only the man who raped her must die.

26 Do nothing to the young woman, because she is not guilty of an offense deserving death. This case is just like one in which a man attacks his neighbor and murders him.

27 When he found her in the field, the engaged woman cried out, but there was no one to rescue her.

28 If a man encounters a young woman, a virgin who is not engaged, takes hold of her and rapes her, and they are discovered,

29 the man who raped her must give the young woman's father 50 silver [shekels], and she must become his wife because he violated her. He cannot divorce her as long as he lives.
