The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Leviticus 20:1-9

For Sins Against the Sixth, Second, and Fourth Commandments v. 1. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, v. 2. Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech, in the double sin of masturbation or onanism and idolatry, or, more likely, in immolating children, Leviticus 18:21, he shall surely be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones.

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 20:1-27

Once more we have a repetition of laws already enunciated with the same persistent thought of responsibility. In this section we find the death sentence associated with certain forms of disobedience, and thus the fact of responsibility is lifted into a yet more clearly defined importance and lays a new and startling emphasis on the absolute authority of God. All the words which had thus been uttered for conditioning life were definite and positive laws. They were infinitely more than general... read more

Child Sacrifice To Molech And Involvement In The Occult Is Forbidden To All In The Land (Leviticus 20:2-6 ).

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 20:1-9

Leviticus 20:1-1 Samuel : . Worship of Molech, etc.— Offering children to Molech (see Leviticus 18:21 *) is to be punished by stoning; such a death emphasizes the repudiation by the whole community and involves everyone in the act, always serious, of killing a fellow-tribesman ( cf. Joshua 7:25). Yahweh Himself will see that the sinner does not survive his crime even if he is not publicly punished; his whole family will be destroyed. Cursing parents is also a capital crime; in such a case,... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 20:2

Here follow the punishments of the crimes forbidden in the former chapters. The strangers; not only such as were proselytes, but all others, these being gross immoralities, and such as the precepts of Noah reached to, and such as the laws of nature and nations obliged them to. And therefore the toleration of such actions was not only against reason of state, and the interest of the commonwealth of Israel, and dangerous to the infection and destruction of the Israelites by the imitation of such... read more

Social and Moral CrimesSUGGESTIVE READINGSLeviticus 20:2.—Again thou shalt say to the children of Israel. These denunclations of sin (already denounced in ch. 18.) are to be repeated in the hearing of the nation. The holy God would have these social and moral commands reiterated that they may be emphasised upon the people’s attention. When sins are pleasant to us, when inclination leads us towards them, it is scarcely in human nature to halt at the first command to desist. Evil indulgence... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Leviticus 20:1-27

Chapter 20Chapter twenty, now God begins to get a little heavier. In chapter twenty God goes over some of the things He dealt with in chapter eighteen, only in chapter twenty telling that the violators of these things should be put to death. I know a lot of these sob sisters are crying out against capital punishment. But if we practice capital punishment as the Bible says, we wouldn't have near the crime problem that we have today.I don't know what's gone wrong with our judicial system, but we... read more

Leviticus 20:2. Molech. See on Leviticus 18:21. Leviticus 20:3. I will cut him off. Ahaz gave his son to Molech, and the Lord afflicted his reign with miseries. Leviticus 20:7. Sanctify yourselves be ye holy; in the disposition of your minds, says Maimonides, and from heretical notions in doctrine. Secondly, from all corporeal pollutions, as it is said “their filthiness is in their skirts.” Thirdly, from exterior defilement by contact, for the words of the law suffer no... read more

Leviticus 20:2-27He shall surely be put to death.Penal sanctionsThis chapter, directly or indirectly, casts no little light on some most fundamental and practical questions regarding the administration of justice in dealing with criminals. We may learn here what, in the mind of the King of kings, is the primary object of the punishment of criminals against society. First and foremost is the satisfaction of outraged justice, and of the regal majesty of the supreme and holy God; the vindication... read more
