6:16 8:3,31 10:17 21:22 Exodus 29:32,33

And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp;

Exodus 12:38 Numbers 11:4

And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)

blasphemed

the name

Houbigant and others think that the name which this man blasphemed was the name of the god of his native land. But that hashshem THE NAME, denotes Jehovah, appears from its being used in the latter part of verse 16, as equivalent to "the name of Jehovah," in the former part. The Jews also frequently use hashshem for Jehovah.

And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.

bear his sin

5:1 20:16,17 Numbers 9:13

And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death.

blasphemeth

As the word nakav not only signifies to curse, or blaspheme, but also to express, or distinguish by name, (Nu 1:17. 1 Ch 12:31. Isa 62:2,) hence the Jews, at a very early period, understood this law as prohibiting them from uttering the name Jehovah, on any other than sacred occasions. The Septuagint, which was made at least 250 years before Christ, renders it [Onomazon de to onoma Kyriou, thanato thanatoustho] "Whosoever nameth the name of the Lord, let him die;" from which we see that the Jews at this time were accustomed to pronounce adonay, or Lord, instead of Jehovah; for in place of it the Septuagint always put [Lo Kyrios.]

Exodus 20:7 1 Kings 21:10-13 Psalms 74:10,18 139:20 Matthew 12:31 Mark 3:28,29 John 8:58,59 10:33-36 Acts 26:11 1 Timothy 1:13 James 2:7

And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death.

And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast.

21 Exodus 21:34-36

Heb. life for life.

And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;

Deuteronomy 19:21 Matthew 5:38 7:2

Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.

Exodus 21:23-25 Deuteronomy 19:21 Matthew 5:38

And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.

Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God.
