21 All the men of the city should stone him to death. You must get rid of this evil. When all Israel hears about it, they will be afraid.
Various Laws
22 When a convicted person is put to death, 23 never leave his dead body hung on a pole overnight. Be sure to bury him that same day, because anyone whose body is hung on a pole is cursed by God. The land that the Lord your God is giving you must never become unclean.[a]
