Numbers 15:30-36 - Deliberate Sin

³⁰ “But the person who acts defiantly, whether native or foreign resident, blasphemes the Lord. That person is to be cut off from his people. ³¹ He will certainly be cut off, because he has despised the Lord’s word and broken His command; his guilt remains on him.”

³² While the Israelites were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering wood on the Sabbath day. ³³ Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and the entire community. ³⁴ They placed him in custody because it had not been decided what should be done to him. ³⁵ Then the Lord told Moses, “The man is to be put to death. The entire community is to stone him outside the camp.” ³⁶ So the entire community brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
