John Wesley's Notes
<< Deuteronomy 23:16   Deuteronomy 23:18 >>


Deuteronomy 23:17

No whore - No common prostitute, such as were tolerated and encouraged by the Gentiles, and used even in their religious worship. Not that such practices were allowed to the strangers among them, as is evident from many scriptures and reasons, but that it was in a peculiar manner, and upon special reasons, forbidden to them, as being much more odious in them than in strangers.
