Idol worshippers?
Stone them to death – in public
Severe punishment
But this can happen
Only with testimony
From two witnesses
Another limit
Is that this only applies
In “the settlements”
-
Another limit
That was then and this is now
We’ve come a long way -
be fair when judging
if it’s too baffling
then get assistanceethics of Torah:
in all ways, in all dealings
chase after fairnessmaking aliyah
to any Jerusalem
within each of usa legal framework
Torah as Magna Carta
no one is abovewhere do we find truth?
it is not up in Heaven,
it is in peoplewith exegesis
to question authority,
make up your own mindnot to be alone
everybody must get stoned
Bob Dylan’s Torah
