 LEVITICUS 24

God tells Moses to command the Israelites to bring olive oil to light the lamps, and to bake twelve loaves to be placed in the Tabernacle every Sabbath. A blasphemer is brought to Moses and God tells Moses to take the blasphemer outside the camp and stone him. God instructs that anyone who blasphemes God is to be put to death, anyone who commits murder is to be put to death, and anyone who maims another person is to pay proportionately.
