Mar 14, 2017 at 0:40 comment added termsofservice Rashi does however say: ולא יעבור – חוק זה מביניהם, שיהא זה חוק ודת לכל הבוזה את בעלה, It may mean that זה is the death penalty.

Mar 14, 2017 at 0:30 comment added termsofservice @mevaqesh Yeah, I was just writing that this question answers why Memukhan extended the decree, so not a huge logical step to extend the death penalty to them to. I am going to look up the sources the OP mentions to evaluate the assumption.
Mar 14, 2017 at 0:27 comment added mevaqesh Your call. Personally I would leave it as it addressed why Memukhan generally decreed against women. You might want to mention that the basic assumption of the OP is incorrect.

Mar 14, 2017 at 0:24 comment added termsofservice @mevaqesh oh you are totally correct, I completely misread the OP's question, should I leave this as an answer?
Mar 14, 2017 at 0:23 comment added mevaqesh Note that this answer doesn't address the question that the OP asked (apparently based on a misreading of Rashi) of why Memukhan decreed that all other women would be killed. However, it could be that the question stands without it.
