According to the Torah or Law of Moses, these are the offenses which may merit the death penalty in a Jewish ''Beth din'' court of 23 judges. ==Religious practices== * Sacrificing to gods other than YHWH * ''Passing children through the fire to/as ()''. The triconsonantal root ''MLK'' has traditionally been translated as if it were the name of an otherwise unattested deity - ''Moloch'' - but may just describe a type of sacrifice. It is generally thought that this refers to a form of human sacrifice similar to that of which the Phoenicians (particularly in Carthage) have historically been widely accused However, the Septuagint reads "You shall not give your seed to serve a ruler", suggesting that the root M-L-K should be more properly rendered as 'king/ruler'. * Worshiping Baal Peor * False prophecy * Necromancy, according to the Masoretic Text; specifically those who ''are masters over ghosts'' (Hebrew: ''Ba'al ob'') and those who ''gain information from the dead'' (Hebrew: ''Yidde'oni''). The Septuagint instead condemns gastromancy (Greek: ''eggastrimuthos''), and enchantment (Greek: ''epaoidos'').〔(Leviticus 20:27 (LXX) )〕 * According to the Masoretic Text, practitioners of ''kashaph'' - incanting maleficium. According to the Septuagint version of the same passages, ''pharmakeia''〔(Exodus 22:17 (LXX) ); note that for technical reasons, verse numbering in the Septuagint doesn't correspond exactly with the masoretic text〕 - poisoners. Historically this passage has been translated into English using vague terminology, condemning ''witchcraft'' in general.〔 (numbered as verse 17 in the NAB, which follows Septuagint numbering)〕 * Blasphemy * Sabbath breaking 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of capital crimes in the Torah」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
