Primary Verses:
-
Deut. 13:5-11
-
"And that prophet, or that
dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death;
because he hath
spoken to turn you away from YHVH your God,
which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed
you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of
the way which YHVH thy God commanded thee to walk in. So
shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
If thy brother, the
son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the
wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own
soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve
other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy
fathers; Namely, of the gods of the people which are
round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee,
from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of
the earth; Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken
unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither
shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be
first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the
hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with
stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust
thee away from YHVH thy God, which brought thee out of
the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. And all
Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any
such wickedness as this is among you."
