"And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him,.... One of the children of Israel, as the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan, and so the Septuagint version: but though this
law was given to the Israelites primarily, yet was made for men stealers in general, as the apostle observes, who plainly has reference to it, Ti1 1:9 , or if he be found in his hand; before the selling of him, as Jarchi notes, since he stole him in order to sell him, he was guilty of death, as follows: he shall surely be put to death; with strangling, as the same Jewish writer remarks, as on the preceding verse; and Jarchi sets it down as a rule, that all death in the law, simply expressed, is strangling.
