"the maiden because (lit., "by word of") she did not cry out": What is the intent of "by word of": to include her who transgressed willfully as requiring (for stoning) the forewarning of witnesses (i.e., because of her violation of the word of warning).

"and the man, because (i.e., "by word of") he afflicted his neighbor's wife": What is the intent of "by word of"? By forewarning.

(Ibid. 25) "And if in the field the man find the betrothed maiden and lie with her": to exclude an instance where one holds her and the other lies with her, (in which instance there is no death penalty.) These are the words of R. Yehudah.
