Commentary on Mark 7:10
Theological / DevotionalMoses said. The first part of Christ’s quotation is from the fifth commandment, and the second is from the civil code of laws (see Ex. 21:17).
Die the death. The Greek of this phrase is a reflection of the Hebrew idiom meaning “surely die,” literally, “dying you will die” (see on Gen. 2:17). In other words, death was to be the inevitable penalty for an infraction of the fifth commandment.
