it takes a lot of balls...

[rudemonk]

to write some of the verses contained in the OT, every now and then you get a wheal whopper that really causes a severe What The F reaction, here's an odd one:

Deut 25:11-12

11 If men get into a fight with one another, and the wife of one intervenes to rescue her husband from the grip of his opponent by reaching out and seizing his genitals, 12 you shall cut off her hand; show no pity.

What the F.

Jaith, you made me laugh out loud.

Thank God for Jesus.

Hey Monk, they refer to genitals as "secrets" in the old testament

Well Mel Brooks in his Two Thousand Year Old Man persona referred to them not as genitals but as "gentles" because you have to be gentle with them.
