SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:14
Además, si alguno se ensoberbeciere contra su prójimo, y lo matare con engaño, de mi altar lo quitarás para que muera.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 21:14
Verse 14. Thou shalt take him from mine altar] Before the cities of refuge were assigned, the altar of God was the common asylum.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 12-21 - God, who by his providence gives and maintains life, by his la protects it. A wilful murderer shall be taken even from God's altar But God provided cities of refuge to protect those whose unhappiness it was, and not their fault, to cause the death of another; for such as by accident, when a man is doing a lawful act, without intent of hurt happens to kill another. Let children hear the sentence of God's wor upon the ungrateful and disobedient; and remember that God wil certainly requite it, if they have ever cursed their parents, even in their hearts, or have lifted up their hands against them, except the repent, and flee for refuge to the Saviour. And let parents hence lear to be very careful in training up their children, setting them a goo example, especially in the government of their passions, and in prayin for them; taking heed not to provoke them to wrath. Through poverty the Israelites sometimes sold themselves or their children; magistrate sold some persons for their crimes, and creditors were in some case allowed to sell their debtors who could not pay. But "man-stealing, the object of which is to force another into slavery, is ranked in the New Testament with the greatest crimes. Care is here taken, tha satisfaction be made for hurt done to a person, though death do no follow. The gospel teaches masters to forbear, and to moderat threatenings, Eph 6:9, considering with Job, What shall I do, when God riseth up? Job 31:13, 14.
