Exodus 22:17 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 22:17
If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.This ordinance reveals God's comprehensive justice—regulating economic transactions, property rights, and social relationships. The mishpatim create framework for covenant community to flourish. Each law applies broader principles: love God supremely, love neighbor practically. Modern believers aren't bound by ceremonial laws but should pursue their spirit—justice, mercy, and faithfulness (Matthew 23:23). God's character revealed in law guides Christian ethics.
