Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.

Verse 5 is found in chapter 17 of Deuteronomy. Defective sacrifices are rejected, and cases of idolatry must be investigated through a procedure involving multiple witnesses. The penalty for apostasy is established only after judicial verification. The text combines cultic requirements with due process, preventing a single accusation from being sufficient to execute a serious sentence.

trai fuori alle tue porte quell’uomo o quella donna che avrà commesso quell’atto malvagio, e lapidalo con pietre, sì che muoia.
