Exodus 22:2-4
Original
2If a thief is caught breaking in and is beaten to death, no one shall be guilty of bloodshed.
3But if it happens after sunrise, there is guilt for his bloodshed. A thief must make full restitution; if he has nothing, he himself shall be sold for his theft.
4If what was stolen is actually found alive in his possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—he must pay back double.
3But if it happens after sunrise, there is guilt for his bloodshed. A thief must make full restitution; if he has nothing, he himself shall be sold for his theft.
4If what was stolen is actually found alive in his possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—he must pay back double.
Corrected:
2 If a thief is caught breaking in:
- and is beaten to death, no one shall be guilty of bloodshed.
- 3 But if it happens after sunrise, there is guilt for his bloodshed.*
- A thief must make full restitution; if he has nothing, he himself shall be sold for his theft.**
4 If what was stolen is actually found alive in his possession—whether ox or donkey or sheep—he must pay back double.
*after the burglary happend, (time has past) meaning he is chased after or found later, a revenge!
** Many need to understand that being sold as a slave is equivalent of becoming a convicted felon!
