Murdering a man requires the death penalty. King David murdered a man to hide his adultery which also carries a death penalty. When approached with this, he fell on his face and confessed "I HAVE SINNED BEFORE YHVH!" The death penalty was stayed because David did not REBEL and hide his sin. Nor did he sin BECAUSE IT WAS SIN. Numbers 15 details the INTENTIONAL REBELLIOUS sin of a man who decided (in my opinion) to gather sticks BECAUSE IT WAS SHABBAT. He was defiant against YHVH and he was in rebellion. Rebellion against YHVH and Moshe was already in FULL SWING at this time, and this man's defiance was proof of it. The rebellion came FULL CIRCLE in the next chapter of Numbers when Korach and his lackeys stood up against YHVH and said, "YOU'VE TAKEN TOO MUCH UPON YOURSELF, MOSHE!" The rebellion, however, did not die down until the next day when a plague came from YHVH and destroyed a great number of Bnai Yisrael who came contemptuously against the altar and against YHVH. THIS, my friend, (according to the 10th chapter of Hebrews) carries the death penalty. Repentance and renewal does not. I'm not going to argue with the Word of YHVH. -- slade ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
