What Scriptural basis has been used in Christianity to support the idea that a fetus posseses the soul?
Upvote:1
Jeremiah 1:5
"Before you were formed in the womb, I knew you."
This conflicts with Exodus 21:22
22 “If people are fighting and hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely[e] but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman’s husband demands and the court allows.
(The implication here is that a fetus is treated as property, not life)
