Is the Law of Moses good or bad?

[Jacob]

Honesty is becoming. You have answered wisely.

Thank you, I think.

 

[Jacob]

Unlike Guyver here, I can answer your question without any hesitation.



After a speedy trial (which is the right of the victims, not the accused), where a conviction is made on two or three witnesses, a convicted murderer should be put to death swiftly and painfully.



Yup.

The right to a trial. Where do we learn about that?

 

[Guyver]

You going to answer the rest of my post?

If it please you, sure. I will when I have that kind of time. That is a really long post. That’s why I try to make points and split them into separate posts. That way, a person can address a point or two at a time, rather than going genesis to revelation on every post.

The Law.

Is the Law of Moses good?

It beats what man thinks is the law:

By. a. lot.

 

[Jacob]

The Law.

Which Law?

 

[JudgeRightly]

Which Law?

The Law.

As opposed to The Prophets and The Writings.

 

[Jacob]

The Law.

As opposed to The Prophets and The Writings.

Any particular scripture or commandment?

 

[JudgeRightly]

Any particular scripture or commandment?

Exodus 18
Deuteronomy 17:9-13

That's just off the top of my head.

Exodus 18
Deuteronomy 17:9-13

That's just off the top of my head.

And to a speedy trial?

Do you have anything to say here?

And to a speedy trial?

Why do you think that the Bible specifies such a thing?

 

[JudgeRightly]

And to a speedy trial?

Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. - Ecclesiastes 8:11 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ecclesiastes8:11&version=NKJV

 

[JudgeRightly]

Because of this.

[Right Divider]

Because of this.

I was asking whether it did. I was asking why Jacob is asking such questions.

 

[JudgeRightly]

I was asking whether it did. I was asking why Jacob is asking such questions.

Ah, ok

 

[Jacob]

Why do you think that the Bible specifies such a thing?

I do not.

I've looked ahead here so I see and know that I am wrong in this.

I would have said something like the Law guarantees a trial (learned here) but it is either the Constitution or the Bill of Rights that guarantees or assures a speedy trial.

What say you?

Jacob, the US legal system is anything BUT speedy.

I didn't catch that part of your question.

JudgeRightly said a speedy trial I believe.

Ah, ok
