0 SAB - Drunk with Blood: God's killings in Leviticus

I kill ... I wound ... I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh. Deuteronomy 32:39-42

God's Killings in Leviticus

Leviticus tells us how to kill animals for God and how to kill people for breaking God's laws. So it only has time for two killings. But they are doozies.

In the first killing, God burns Aaron's sons to death for offering "strange fire." And in the second, God commands a blasphemer to the stoned to death.

Here are the two killings in Leviticus.

  1. God burned Aaron's sons to death for offeringZZZ
  2. A blasphemer is stoned to deathZZZ
