Genesis 9:6
9:6 “Whoever sheds human blood,
by other humans
must his blood be shed;
for in God’s image
God has made humankind.”
Genesis 37:22
37:22 Reuben continued,
“Don’t shed blood! Throw him into this cistern that is here in the wilderness, but don’t lay a hand on him.”
(Reuben said this
so he could rescue Joseph
from them
and take him back to his father.)
