And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
Y todos los hombres de su ciudad le arrojarán piedras hasta que muera. Así quitarás el mal de en medio de tu pueblo, y cuando todo Israel lo escuche, tendrán temor de hacer lo mismo.
La aplicación de la justicia divina debe servir para quitar el mal del pueblo y generar temor reverente que prevenga futuros pecados.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In ancient Israel, under the Mosaic Law given through Moses, this verse addressed the need to maintain social order and purity in a theocratic society by prescribing severe punishments for rebellion, such as a son who persistently defied his parents and refused correction. The community was required to stone the offender to eliminate evil and serve as a warning to others, reflecting the cultural emphasis on collective responsibility and deterrence in a nomadic and later settled nation. It was part of a broader legal framework designed to uphold God's covenant with Israel and prevent moral decay.
