SEV Biblia, Chapter 17:7
La mano de los testigos será primero sobre él para matarlo, y después la mano de todo el pueblo; así quitarás el mal de en medio de ti.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 7. The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death , etc.] Of everyone of them, as Aben Ezra; they were to cast the first stone at him, which would be a further trial and confirmation of their testimony; for if they readily and without reluctance first began the stoning of the idolater, it would not only show their zeal for the honour of the divine Being, but an unconsciousness of guilt in their testimony, and be an encouragement to others to proceed with safety: and afterwards the hands of all the people ; should be employed in taking up stones, and casting at him until he was dead: so thou shall put the evil away from among you ; both the evil man and the evil committed by him, which by this means would be prevented from spreading, seeing by his death others would be deterred from following his example; as well as the evil of punishment, which otherwise would have come upon the nation, had they connived at so gross an iniquity.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-7 - No creature which had any blemish was to be offered in sacrifice to God. We are thus called to remember the perfect, pure, and spotles sacrifice of Christ, and reminded to serve God with the best of ou abilities, time, and possession, or our pretended obedience will be hateful to him. So great a punishment as death, so remarkable a deat as stoning, must be inflicted on the Jewish idolater. Let all who in our day set up idols in their hearts, remember how God punished thi crime in Israel.
