    Thank you for the context. I feel like you could find similar sentiments today over less severe harms.

    Honestly, that type of retaliation is happening right now by the descendants of those that wrote the Psalm. Goes to show we really haven’t progressed much in how we treat each other in 3000 years.

      Much? Today there are people who say “you’re such an annoying cyclist, I’m going to roll coal to spite you”. We are no wiser at all, and we have a much greater potential for destruction. Humanity has regressed imo.
