BTW, translators of the Bible typically use the word “thigh” as a euphemisim for the hebrew word that can mean “groin” (yarek)*. I’m pretty sure that it’s not the lady’s “thigh” that is supposed to rot.

The test part to see if the woman was defiled kind of reminds me of Monty Python’s Holy Grail test where they wanted to throw the woman into the water to see if she’s a witch, her being innocent of being a witch if she drowned.

Thanks for the heads up.

* A few times in the Old Testament someone is asked to swear by putting their hand under a “thigh.” Actually this is likely instead putting one’s hand on testicles, something more sacred and a common way of swearing in the ancient world which is possibly where we ultimately get words such as “testify”, “testimony”, “testament”, “protest”, “contest”, “protestant”, etc… from the latin root: “testi.”
