Or are you talking Hebrew texts? That would be interesting...

Hebrew. The judaeo-Christian religion is a significant reason why the west has been a boon to humanity. Now we’re at this moment...as an anti abortion absolutist, I’d be very interested to see the textual basis for the ‘Hebrew rule’. There’s lots in the OT about manslaughter vs murder, but I do not know how they would come up with that parameter from the OT.

Perhaps the Midrash or Talmud? Wish we had a rabbinical scholar among us!
