Commentary on Exodus 21:30

Theological / Devotional

Ransom of his life. Since it was unlikely that a man would be put to death for the offense of an animal, no matter what the neglect, provision is made for paying “a sum of money” as a fine, the amount being proportionate to the value of the life taken.
