ביטוי (אנגלית)

Penal Laws

הגדרה (אנגלית)

The criminal law. The statutes and procedures pertaining to the punishment of one who violates the law.

(“‘And you shall not pity: life for life, eye for an eye’—this is a warning not to show mercy to one who kills or injures his fellow; these are matters of fines and punishments. Likewise, the hidden matters belong to the Lord our God—I have already explained them regarding the cursed ones. Concerning the hidden matters, blessings and curses were involved, which cannot be enforced by a court, but only by God. For us and our children, we carry out punishments only according to the testimony of witnesses.”)
