The Sabbath Breaker Executed

Numbers 15:32-36

While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath day.

Those who found the man gathering wood brought him to Moses, Aaron, and the whole congregation,

and because it had not been declared what should be done to him, they placed him in custody.

And the LORD said to Moses, “The man must surely be put to death. The whole congregation is to stone him outside the camp.”

So the whole congregation took the man outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
