Scripture focus

But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

Numbers 31:18 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

The women children. Since they were young and impressionable there was the possibility of their being weaned from idolatry and its unclean practices.

Keep alive. For a law that came later, the enactment of which may have reflected the capture of these women, see Deut. 21:10-14.
