  • George Hartwell on Genesis 38 - 10 years ago
    Comment on verse 9. When I look up the word Onanism in my dictionary, I find that, in the definition of the word, there is a reference back to Genesis 38:9, but there are two definitions given to describe what Onan did to displease the LORD so much that the LORD slew him. Does this mean that Onan actually did both of these things, one after the other, or are biblical scholars unsure of which thing he did? Either way, it does seem a very draconian punishment. Has anyone any thoughts on this, please? Thanks in advance.
