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 Entre los israelitas vivía un hombre, hijo de madre israelita y de padre egipcio. Y sucedió que un día este hombre y un israelita iniciaron un pleito en el campamento.
11 Pero el hijo de la mujer israelita, al lanzar una maldición, pronunció el nombre del SEÑOR; así que se lo llevaron a Moisés. (El nombre de su madre era Selomit hija de Dibrí, de la tribu de Dan.)
12 Y lo pusieron bajo arresto hasta que el SEÑOR les dijera qué hacer con él.
13 Entonces el SEÑOR le dijo a Moisés:
14 «Saca al blasfemo fuera del campamento. Quienes lo hayan oído impondrán las manos sobre su cabeza, y toda la asamblea lo apedreará.
