Exclusive analysis finds the rate of maternal deaths in Texas increased 56% from 2019 to 2022, compared with just 11% nationwide during the same time period.
Why are they talking about a woman’s womb at all unless they think she is pregnant? What does the womb “discharge?” Where does it say she is NOT pregnant? Why is pregnancy NOT a concern if she was laying with another man as the passage discusses?
I think this translation is valid. That you have to explain that “thigh falling,” means “womb discharge,” shows that your translation is a bad one. And a womb discharge is clearly another way of saying miscarriage.
Women have wombs when they’re not pregnant? Ever heard of a period? Heavy periods? People would have been seen unclean in that society as well if they had constant periods and would have been infertile.
A period being induced when a woman is pregnant is another name for a miscarriage. Thank you for proving my point. If they are inducing a period with the bitter water, that’s to cause a miscarriage.
The passage isn’t about periods. There are indeed biblical passages about menstruation, but this isn’t one. This passage is about a woman sleeping with a man who isn’t their partner. So again, what are they making the womb “discharge” after this suspected infidelity?

But the passage doesn’t say she’s pregnant. You don’t always get pregnant after the first time you sleep with someone 🤦
