Bible Question: I have been looking for a verse out of the Bible and can't find it. I thought it was in Levitcus but I can't find it. It tolds about if a woman has child birth out of wedlock that she and 5 generations shale be damed. And it talks about if a man is cercusized that he and 5 generations shall be damed. Does anyone know where these verses are? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Beth1117n! I dont' know if this is the verse you are looking for, but it sounds like it. Deut. 23:1-2 says, "No one who has been emasculated by crushing or cutting may enter the assembly of the LORD. 2 No one born of a forbidden marriage nor any of his descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, even down to the tenth generation." Of course, the people referred to here are barred from taking part in the Assembly (the public worship of Israel in the Temple). If this is the verse you are looking for, it does not say that these people (of the following generations) are damned, simply that they can't take part in the worship of Israel.
