I wrote something in a post called “Should the Quran be banned? ”, there was something that deviated from the initial subject (and I did not receive answers), but the questions are fit for this group.
Because I receieved the link to Tanakh, now there should be no problem with how the verses and chapters are numbered.
The questions are these:
1. How do you understand Deuteronomy 13:7-19?
It’s about foreign gods. So, by the Torah, if a jew converts to hinduism or catholicism, and says to others “I found the truth, it is this!”, should he be killed? Or this is a different thing?
2. My question was
I have a question: what is the punishment of a man who sleeps with a woman (fornication, not adultery)? why should the woman be killed while the man - as far as I know - is not killed?
I received the answer:
Regarding the punishment for Adultery... Both the man and the woman are stoned to death..
However, it seems that Exodus 22:15-16 says a different thing... so, am I missing or missunderstanding something?
3. 1 Chronicles 20.3 Why did they do that? (if I understand well, they brought them out to torture them – isn’t that sadistic?). Some commentaries would be welcomed.
thanks in advance.
