2 Mose 21:8

Studie

       

8 Wenn sie in den Augen ihres Herrn mißfällig ist, die er für sich bestimmt hatte, so lasse er sie loskaufen: er soll nicht Macht haben, sie an ein fremdes Volk zu verkaufen, weil er treulos an ihr gehandelt hat.

9017. Verses 16-17 And anyone stealing a man and selling him - and he is found in his hand - shall surely die. And anyone cursing his father and his mother shall surely die.

'And anyone stealing a man and selling him' means applying the truth of faith to evil, and alienating it. 'And he is found in his hand' means though there is still an acknowledgement of it. 'Shall surely die' means damnation. 'And anyone cursing his father and his mother' means complete rejection of the Lord and of His kingdom by those belonging to the Church, and so profanation of the Church's goodness and truth. 'Shall surely die' means damnation.
