We teach them as for this verse it shows just how severe the sin of adultery was and if you study this topic throughout the Bible you get to David who committed adultery and had Uriah killed. God still restored David and called him after this a man after Gods own heart. Read psalm 51 Davids prayer of repentance and we can see God did forgive him. Then you get to the woman caught in the very act of adultery and Jesus was asked a question,the law says she shall be stoned but what do you say? Jesus said he who is without sin may cast the 1st stone at her and then wrote on the ground. The crowd left and Jesus was alone with the woman and asked her where were her accusers. Jesus told her, I do not condemn you, go and sin no more.How do we go about answering bible verses like Deuteronomy 22 20-21 and other darker verses like these in the OT( Scary Bible Quotes, NIV) check out that link for other verses like it.

What we have to do is to determine who the intended audience was and why it was written. Are these verses written FOR us or TO us? As a gentile Christian believer, because Deuteronomy was written to Jews the book may be useful for my education but not for a set of direct instructions to me. Therefore I don't feel threatened by any of them.How do we go about answering bible verses like Deuteronomy 22 20-21 and other darker verses like these in the OT( Scary Bible Quotes, NIV) check out that link for other verses like it.

Wow i like that scripture, but that brings uo another question wouldent this be a difference in teaching from the OT God and Jesus? When the bible says he is the same always and forever.Read:
Matthew 5:38-48 (KJV)
John 8:1-11 (KJV)

This shows that the cost of disobeying and rejecting the Lord and going after other gods is very high and very unpleasant. The Scripture says "Knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men."And they will go out and look on the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me; the worms that eat them will not die, the fire that burns them will not be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.—Isaiah 66:24
We pray for our enemies; we seek to persuade those who hate us without cause to live conformably to the goodly precepts of Christ, that they may become partakers with us of the joyful hope of blessings from God, the Lord of all.—Justin MartyrThis shows that the cost of disobeying and rejecting the Lord and going after other gods is very high and very unpleasant.
