Wife-beating may not have been condoned (aside from women being considered property of course), but watch out for that ball-grabbing woman in a fight: Deuteronomy 25:11-12. "11. When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets: 12.Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her." Of course, one scholar claims that this is a mistranslation and it says that her groin should be shaved.
