Leviticus 24:21

24:21 One who beats an animal to death ¹  must make restitution for it, but ²  one who beats a person to death must be put to death.

Leviticus 24:16

24:16 and one who misuses ³  the name of the Lord must surely be put to death. The whole congregation must surely stone him, whether he is a foreigner or a native citizen; when he misuses the Name he must be put to death.

¹ sn See the note on v. 18 above.

² tn Heb “and,” but here the Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) is adversative, contrasting the consequences of beating an animal to death with those of beating a person to death.

³ sn See the note on v. 11 above.
