Stoning

Taking some one to court made up of a jury of "Living Stones".

Stoning someone to death was like taking someone to the court made up of the Living Stones and producing the verdict of shunning in side the imaginary walls of society or banishment outside the gates. It was excommunication, being evicted from the community and the welfare system of God.

It did not originally mean to pick up rocks and throw them at someone to murder them. Thou Shall Not Kill.

To be banished from a community could be a death sentence. It certainly would be throwing you to the dogs of societies all around you where you would be forced to labor under the rulers of the rest of the world.

Israel operated by the perfect law of liberty with free will offerings but the charity which flowed through the ministers of that church in the wilderness needed to flow freely from the moral members of society to the moral and virtuous members of society.

While there was no shame in being poor there was no virtue in poverty. If people were to be helped they needed to meet a moral criteria of righteous behavior or go somewhere else. That left few options that did not include a bondage under a master other than God the father.
