A wound and dishonour shall he get
A wound, stroke, or blow, either from the husband of the
strumpet, as was often the case
FOOTNOTES:
F24 in later times; or from the civil
magistrate, being ordered by him to be beaten F25 or
stoned; or from God himself inflicting diseases on him; see (
Genesis 12:17
) ; where the same word is used as here: and "dishonour" from men;
for though they do not despise a thief in circumstances before
related, yet they will despise an adulterer, and speak
reproachfully of him, whenever they have occasion to make mention
of him; and his reproach shall not be wiped away;
as long as he lives, though his life may be spared; yea, it shall
even continue after death; and though he may repent of his sin and
reform, as in the case of David. F24 "Secat ille cruentis verberibus",
