What Does The Torah Say About Animal Cruelty? (4 Minutes)

[Music] the law is that if a person kills another person they there's only one penalty what is it death penalty there's no 20 years in prison there's no 50 years in prison there's no 100 years in prison like they're giving this kid that just murdered a bunch of people last week they're giving him 50 years in prison because he's only 17 or 40 years in prison and when he's 57 he's going to be able to go on parole 57 years old he's going to be able to go free potentially if nobody kills him in there before that but the point is that this is the ludicrous situation according to the Torah you kill you have to be killed you have no you have lost your right to live but the Torah specifies if you kill an animal it's obviously not the same value no matter what the organization Peta and the like and the Lefty liberals think the value of an animal is not like the value of a human being if you kill a dog however cute he is it's not worth your life if you kill a cat it's not worth your life you kill a monkey it's not worth your life you kill the biggest smartest lion in the planet it's not worth your life what do you have to do you have to make restitution you have to pay for it money and then it goes into the law I for eye tooth for tooth and so on and so forth from here we learn that IE for ey doesn't literally mean physical eye for physical eye it literally explains to you that it's monetary compensation but then then the is this after we hear IE for ey break for break tooth for a tooth it says again on verse 21 it says one who strikes an animal shall make restitution and one who strikes a person shall be put to death I don't understand you already said this before on verse 17 you said if you strike a person you kill a person you have to kill them and 18 you said if you kill an animal you have to make restitution why mention it again a couple of verses later both of them in the same verse in verse 21 if you strike an animal you have to pay restitution if you strike a person you're put to death there's nothing that's duplicated the Torah for no reason there has to be a reason here the Torah is teaching us M the Torah is teaching us M telling us if the reason why you killed the animal wasn't because you were protecting for your own life the lion wasn't trying to kill you you're just hunting for fun if you kill the sheep or the cow or the dog or whatever it is because you're angry and you don't work on yourself just know you eventually going to kill a person the reason why it's mentioned again abai is because if he kills an animal he has to pay restitution meaning he has to do chuva that's the restitution why because if he doesn't do Chua the next sin is GNA follow what he's going to kill a person and for that he's going to lose his life for that he's going to lose his life first you lost money and you were given an opportunity to do chba second time when it's a person you have to that's it you've lost your right to live that's the Torah teaching us m is a caed to our anger [Music]
