Adultery here is denied in strong language. If Job had given into the enticements of another woman he was willing that his wife become. slave for someone else (the grinding of corn by hand with millstones was. menial task of female slaves), and be degraded sexually by others. "This imprecation demonstrates Job's firm convictions regarding his innocence, for no man would readily subject his wife to such. terrible curse" (Zuck p. 135).
