Matthew Poole and continuators on Deuteronomy 23:17

17 There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel , nor a Sodomite of the sons of Israel.

No common prostitute, such as were tolerated and encouraged by the Gentiles, and used even in their Religious worship.

Not that such practises were allowed to the strangers among them, as is evident from many Scriptures and reasons, but that it was in a peculiar manner, and upon special reasons forbidden to them, as being much more odious in them than in strangers. Though the words may be rendred, among the Daughters, and so, in the following clause, among the sons, for the Hebrew Mem is sometimes used in that sence, as Numb. 32. 22. Psal. 31. 12. and so it notes that none of that sort should be permitted among them, whether Jews or Strangers?

Or, buggerer, who defileth or suffereth himself to be defiled with mankind. See Gen. 19. 5. Levit. 18. 12. 1 King. 14. 24. and 22. 47. Rom. 1. 27.

Marginal references: or, Sodomitess.
