The Bible is Pro-Choice Without a doubt, the Bible is largely pro-choice. Although the Jews were influenced by many of the laws of their Assyrian, Sumerian, and Babylonian neighbors, all of which prohibited abortion, the Jewish scriptures had no laws prohibiting abortion, not even one. This was mainly due to the fact that Jews placed a higher value on women than their neighbors. There are, however, some references to termination of pregnancy. Exodus. 21.22-25 says that if a pregnant woman miscarries due to injuries sustained during a fight between two men, the penalty for the loss of the fetus is a fine; if the woman is killed, the punishment is “life for life”. It is obvious from this passage that men whose fighting had caused a woman to miscarry were not considered murderers because they had not killed the woman. The woman, undeniably, had a greater moral and religious value than that of the fetus, which was nothing more than a pile of worthless tissue, an agglomeration of senseless and lifeless cells - contrary to those who are anti-choice and consider it "human life ”. reference in the Mosaic law to what is now called "abortion on demand" Num. 5:11-31 indicates that if a husband suspects that his wife is pregnant by another man, "the husband shall bring his wife to the priest," who he will mix a drink intended to make her confess or be threatened with termination of the pregnancy if she has been unfaithful to her husband. In other words, the Jewish Church was directly involved in the practice of abortion for those countless Jewish women who fell into this aforementioned category. Yes, Jewish priests actually performed abortions on women. The Bible is undeniably specific on this point. Of course there are less intelligent biblical exegetes who interpret this in various other obviously incorrect ways. It is best not to consider their ignorant opinions on the matter.
