I don't know, but one passage asserts that this god will cause one himself under some circumstances:
Quote:20 But if you have gone astray while married to your husband and you have made yourself impure by having sexual relations with a man other than your husband”— 21 here the priest is to put the woman under this curse—“may the Lord cause you to become a curse[b] among your people when he makes your womb miscarry and your abdomen swell. 22 May this water that brings a curse enter your body so that your abdomen swells or your womb miscarries.”
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se...ersion=NIV
It goes without saying that the woman still has no choice, because she is, after all, still property and not a person. But God don't mind abortion for adultery, apparently.
This underlines the point that there are far more miscarriages than abortions. Why didn't God treasure those fetuses?

Quote:Florida abortion rights activists win over Republicans in ballot measure push
Jaymie Carter is a registered Republican.
She has been named by two Republican governors — first Rick Scott, then Ron DeSantis — to sit on the Board of Trustees for the State College of Florida, and she says she voted for DeSantis in his 2022 campaign for governor.
But when it comes to the issue of abortion, she’s breaking with her party.
“Women are concerned about what’s happening with our bodies and our right to choose. And there’s a lot of people that you wouldn’t think would be the pro-choice advocates, but they are,” she said. “And the government overreach, it’s huge right now.”
Carter is one of more than 150,000 registered Republican voters who have signed a petition in support of a ballot amendment that would bar the state from restricting abortion “before viability” — which is usually at 24 weeks — or “when necessary to protect the patient’s health.”

Good Morning America gathered about 50 women to talk about how they were tortured in hospitals because of Christian dogma that doesn't allow them to abort dangerous life-life-threatening pregnancies.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

A woman who had a miscarriage is now charged with abusing a corpse
An Ohio woman who had sought treatment at a hospital before suffering a miscarriage and passing her nonviable fetus in her bathroom now faces a criminal charge, her attorney told CNN.
Brittany Watts, 33, of Warren, has been charged with felony abuse of a corpse, Trumbull County court records show.
Though a coroner’s office report said the fetus was not viable and had died in the womb, Watts’ case highlights the extent to which prosecutors can charge a woman whose pregnancy has ended – whether by abortion or miscarriage.

Abortion bans and travel bans are weakening the military.
Abortion access policy could be dumped, former Pentagon leader warns
“Abortions bans — like anything else that unfairly puts hurdles between service members and necessary health care — pose a threat to military readiness. They erode the principles that make America strong.”
“The Department of Defense’s abortion travel policy was a necessary, though incomplete, step to remedying the Supreme Court’s error. It also could be reversed on the very first day of a new administration,” wrote Gil Cisneros, the former undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, in an op-ed published by The Hill on Tuesday.
Service members can take up to three weeks of administrative leave and receive travel stipends to cross state lines for abortion services if local laws prohibit the procedures. White House officials have defended the policy as necessary for the health and readiness of troops. Conservative opponents have called it an illegal move to ignore state bans on abortions.

Not to mention Tommy Tuberville. His hold on general/flag officer confirmations in protest of this Pentagon policy (400 leadership spots left unfilled for almost a year) directly and palpably damaged America's national security. This prick, and many like him, think their opinions are more important than our nation's safety.
One more bit of evidence that the GOP cares more for its party fortunes than our national weal.

Texas saw an estimated 26,313 rape-related pregnancies during the 16 months after the state outlawed all abortions, with no exceptions for survivors of rape or incest, according to a study published Wednesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

A Texas man slipped abortion pills to his wife and severely damaged the fetus.
He got sentenced to 180 days and got to keep his law license.
If she had taken the abortion pills voluntarily, she would have been charged with murder.
This is about controlling women.

Well, in all honesty, if you weren't smart enough to be born with a penis, how could possibly be trusted to make your own decisions?
