Among non-Christian faiths, [[Judaism]] is almost exclusively pro-choice, largely due to interpreting Exodus 21 (see above) as showing such a philosophy. Of note, however, where Christianity translates to imply a premature (and potentially successful) birth, most Jewish translations directly refer to miscarriages. <ref>[http://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/9882|Chabad Translation: Exodus Chapter 21]</ref>
