Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 24:15-16

Leviticus 24:15-16. Whosoever curseth his God Speaketh of him reproachfully. Shall bear his sin That is, the punishment of it; shall not go unpunished, He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord This is a repetition of the same sin in other words, which is common. As this law is laid down in general terms, Leviticus 24:15, so both the sin and the punishment are particularly expressed, Leviticus 24:16. All the congregation To show their zeal for God, and to beget in them the greater... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 24:1-23

Reverence for God (24:1-23)Further instructions are given to remind the Israelites of their daily and weekly responsibilities in relation to the Holy Place. To begin with the people had to supply the oil so that the priests could keep the lamp burning continually (24:1-4). The priests also had to make sure that twelve cakes of ‘presence bread’, renewed weekly, were on the table before the Lord continually. This was possibly to symbolize that the nation Israel, which consisted of twelve tribes,... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 24:16

16. as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the Lord, shall be put to death—Although strangers were not obliged to be circumcised, yet by joining the Israelitish camp, they became amenable to the law, especially that which related to blasphemy. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Leviticus 24:10-23

E. The punishment of a blasphemer 24:10-23This is another narrative section of Leviticus (cf. chs. 8-10). Its position in the book must mean that it took place after God had given Moses the instructions about the holy lamps and showbread (Leviticus 24:1-9). This fact underlines that Leviticus is essentially a narrative work. God gave the legal information at specific times and places to meet particular situations in Israel’s life. [Note: Wenham, The Book . . ., pp. 308-9.] This is how case law... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Leviticus 24:16

(16) And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord.—Better, And he that curseth the name of the Lord. The case is, however, different when it is the God of Israel. It is henceforth to be the law that whosoever curses Jehovah is to suffer death by lapidation, which is to be inflicted upon the criminal by the Jewish community.As well the stranger as he that is born in the land.—This law is applicable alike to the proselyte and to the Gentile, who does not even profess to believe in Jehovah.When he... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 24:1-23

THE HOLY LIGHT AND THE SHEW BREAD: THE BLASPHEMER’S ENDLeviticus 24:1-23IT is not easy to determine with confidence the association of thought which occasioned the interposition of this chapter, with its somewhat disconnected contents, between chapter 23, on the set times of holy convocation, and chapter 25, on the sabbatic and jubilee years, which latter would seem most naturally to have followed the former immediately, as relating to the same subject of sacred times. Perhaps the best... read more

THE PENALTY OF BLASPHEMYLeviticus 24:10-23"And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: and the son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp; and the son of the Israelitish woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed: and they brought him unto Moses. And his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan. And they put him in ward, that it might be declared unto them at the mouth of... read more

3. Blasphemy and Israel’s Sin Foreshadowed CHAPTER 24:10-23 1. The blasphemy (Leviticus 24:10-22 ) 2. The penalty executed (Leviticus 24:23 ) The blasphemer who blasphemed the Name and cursed, foreshadows the sin of Israel. They sinned and blasphemed that holy Name: and on account of the rejection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the curse has come upon them. But it will not be permanent. The remnant of Israel will be saved in the future day, when He comes back and they shall welcome Him:... read more
