Leviticus
King James Version (KJV)


“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.”
King James Version (KJV)
24:16 He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord - This is a repetition of the same sin in other words, which is common. As this law is laid down in general terms, #Lev 24:15|, so both the sin and the punishment are particularly expressed, #Lev 24:16|. All the congregation - To shew their zeal for God, and to beget in them the greater dread and abhorrence of blasphemy.
And hee that blasphemeth the Name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death, and all the Congregation shall certainely stone him: Aswell the stranger, as he that is borne in the land, when he blasphemeth the Name of the Lord, shall be put to death.
