Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(9) And the daughter of any priest.--This statute, according to the administrators of the Law during the second Temple, applies only to betrothed and married daughters. Hence the ancient Chaldee version renders it, "and if the betrothed daughter"She shall be burnt with fire.--Whilst the married daughter of a layman who had gone astray was punished with death by strangling (see Leviticus 20:10; Deuteronomy 22:23-24), the daughter of a priest who had disgraced herself was to be punished with the severer death by burning. Though the doom of the guilty partner in the crime is not mentioned here, his sentence was death by strangulation.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewIfכִּ֥י (kî)ConjunctionStrong's 3588: A relative conjunctiona priest’sכֹּהֵ֔ן (kō·hên)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 3548: Priestdaughterוּבַת֙ (ū·ḇaṯ)Conjunctive waw | Noun - feminine singular constructStrong's 1323: A daughterdefiles herselfתֵחֵ֖ל (ṯê·ḥêl)Verb - Nifal - Imperfect - third person feminine singularStrong's 2490: To bore, to wound, to dissolve, to profane, to break, to begin, to playby prostituting herself,לִזְנ֑וֹת (liz·nō·wṯ)Preposition-l | Verb - Qal - Infinitive constructStrong's 2181: To commit adultery, to commit idolatrysheהִ֣יא (hî)Pronoun - third person feminine singularStrong's 1931: He, self, the same, this, that, as, areprofanesמְחַלֶּ֔לֶת (mə·ḥal·le·leṯ)Verb - Piel - Participle - feminine singularStrong's 2490: To bore, to wound, to dissolve, to profane, to break, to begin, to playher father;אָבִ֙יהָ֙ (’ā·ḇî·hā)Noun - masculine singular construct | third person feminine singularStrong's 1: Fathershe must be burnedתִּשָּׂרֵֽף׃ (tiś·śā·rêp̄)Verb - Nifal - Imperfect - third person feminine singularStrong's 8313: To be, on firein the fire.בָּאֵ֖שׁ (bā·’êš)Preposition-b, Article | Noun - common singularStrong's 784: A fireJump to PreviousA-Whoring Behaviour Burned Burnt Common Defiles Disgraces Fire Harlot Harlotry Herself Lewdness Makes Playing Polluteth Polluting Priest Priest's Profane Profanes Profaneth Prostitute Puts Shame Whore
