Deuteronomy 23:17 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

No whore — No common prostitute, such as were tolerated and encouraged by the Gentiles, and used even in their religious worship. Not that such practices 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.

Deuteronomy 23:17

17 There shall be no whorec of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
