    3. In the section on sexual sin (#14 above)...
    a) What are the two terms used for sex in this section? What does each imply about the woman's participation?
    b) What is assumed that a woman would do if forced into sex against her will? What does not doing this imply?
    II. Interpretation/Discussion Questions
    • Section 1: Marrying a Captive Woman
    • Was marrying a captive woman an act of love, selfishness, or both? Why or why not?
    • What, if anything, do the changes described in 21:12-13 suggest about the woman's heart? Is she forced?
    • Section 13: Premarital Promiscuity
    • Why do you think that a husband would falsely accuse his new wife of not being a virgin? (hint: punishment)
    • Who was ultimately responsible for a girl's virginity?
    • Why do you think that the guilty wife was put to death on her father's house steps?
    • Section 14: Sexual Sin
    • Why do you think that sexual sin is given such attention here? What's the issue? (hint: motive)
    • What do the similarities in punishment in the first two cases tell us about how “being engaged” was viewed?
    • What attributes of God's character do we see illustrated in this passage?
    • Does this passage point us towards Christ? If so, how?
    III. Application
    • God is holy. We are not. Just as a captive woman had no hope of being redeemed from slavery, so too do we find
    ourselves as captives to our own deprived nature. Yet, Christ redeems us from our captivity as his bride by his own will.
    • Sharing a gift as precious as sexual intimacy with anyone but your spouse robs both of you of the joy it's designed for.
