Esodo 21:32

Listen to Esodo 21:32
32 Se il bue cozza un servo o una serva, paghi il padron del bue trenta sicli di argento al padrone di esso, e sia lapidato il bue.

Esodo 21:32 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 21:32

If the ox shall push a manservant, or a maidservant
Which the Targum of Jonathan and Jarchi interpret of a Canaanitish servant, man or maid; but no doubt the same provision was made for an Hebrew servant, man or maid, as for a Gentile one:

he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver;
that is, the owner of the ox shall pay so much to the masters of the servants for the loss they have sustained by his ox goring them; and Maimonides F18 observes, that

``the ransom of servants, whether great or small, whether male or female, is fixed in the law, thirty shekels of good silver, whether the servant is worth a hundred pounds, or whether he is worth but a penny.''

This was the price our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ was sold at, (See Gill on Matthew 26:15).

32 Se il bue cozza un servo o una serva, paghi il padron del bue trenta sicli di argento al padrone di esso, e sia lapidato il bue.
33 E, se alcuno scuopre una fossa; ovvero, avendo cavata una fossa, non la ricuopre, e vi cade dentro bue od asino;
