Levitico 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.

10 OR un uomo, figliuolo di una donna Israelita, ma di padre Egizio, che stava per mezzo i figliuoli d’Israele, uscì fuori; ed egli e un Israelita contesero insieme nel campo.
11 E il figliuolo della donna Israelita bestemmiò il Nome, e lo maledisse; laonde fu condotto a Mosè; or il nome di sua madre era Selomit, figliuola di Dibri, della tribù di Dan;
12 e fu messo in prigione, finchè Mosè avesse dichiarato ciò che se ne avesse a fare, per comandamento del Signore.
13 E il Signore parlò a Mosè, dicendo:
14 Mena quel bestemmiatore fuor del campo; e posino tutti coloro che l’hanno udito le lor mani sopra il capo di esso, e lapidilo tutta la raunanza.
