Ezekiel16:38
Ver. 38. And I will judge thee as women that break wedlock] See Lev. 20.10. Deut. 22.22. The Egyptians cut off the harlots noſe, and the adulterers privy members; The Romans beheaded them; the old Germans whipt them through the ſtreets. Canutus the Daniſh King in this land, baniſhed them. Tenedius, a King in another land, did cut them in ſunder with an axe. By our laws they are to be hanged, as by the Jews laws to be ſtoned, ver. 40.
And ſhed blood] See ver. 35.
I will give thee blood] God loveth to retaliate.
