Shocked and amazed that these pagan customs still can be found in modern religious philosophy. Women to be considered property, human chattal, to be disciplined like slaves? If Jews are to be considered a modern peaceful religion, not a violent, pagen one, why continue using religious biblical script to perpetuate the violence. Why not get rid of it? It certainly helps to explain why older Jewish lawyers asked, "when do you beat your wife." According to this text, it was never a question of if, but when. Guess Jews will not be leading anyone to peaceful, gender co-existence, and the elevation of women in a just society. No wonder these ancient religions have no female priests & rabbis. Women are lower than men - slaves to be directed and punished. As they say, alter the script if violence is being adopted by men to produce violence; it's clear that in keeping, and teaching it, change is impossible in such cultures that feel free to dictate to women. Wonder if any religion considers women as equal!
