Job31:11
For this is a heinous crime - Mr. Good translates, "For this would be a premeditated crime,
And a profligacy of the understanding."
See also Job 31:28. That is, It would not only be a sin against the individuals more particularly concerned, but a sin of the first magnitude against society; and one of which the civil magistrate should take particular cognizance, and punish as justice requires.
