Levítico 24:12 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 24:12

And they put him in ward
In some prison, a place known in the camp, as Aben Ezra observes: that the mind of the Lord might be shewed them;
for, though this was a breach of the third command, in which God declares he would not hold such an one guiltless, ( Exodus 20:7 ) ; yet no particular punishment being expressed, it was not a clear case whether the Lord would punish for it himself, by an immediate stroke of his hand, or whether by the civil magistrate; and if by the latter, in what manner; for though it might be concluded, without any hesitation, that he was worthy of death, since cursing father or mother was death, ( Exodus 21:17 ) ( Leviticus 20:9 ) ; and much more blaspheming God, yet what death to put him to they might be at a loss about; or if that was understood of stoning, they might think this deserved a sorer punishment, and therefore consulted God about it.

Levítico 24:12 In-Context

10 Ejemplo de castigo justo
Cierto día, un hombre de madre israelita y de padre egipcio salió de su carpa y tuvo una pelea con un israelita.
11 Durante la pelea, el hijo de la madre israelita blasfemó el Nombre del Señor
con una maldición. Así que llevaron a este hombre ante Moisés para ser juzgado. Su madre se llamaba Selomit, hija de Dibri de la tribu de Dan.
12 Lo tuvieron bajo vigilancia hasta que les fuera clara la voluntad del Señor
sobre este asunto.
13 Luego el Señor
le dijo a Moisés:
14 «Saca al blasfemo fuera del campamento, y diles a los que escucharon la maldición que pongan las manos sobre la cabeza del blasfemo. Después permite que toda la comunidad lo mate a pedradas.
