Funny Bible Quote #44

And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?

Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord.

Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.

But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

~ Numbers 31:15-18, KJV

  2. Oh they have ways...

    For one thing, they look for young women (aka "girls"). At that point, they may ask, or just assume those who are unmarried are virgins.
