Translations:Did Jesus really support the death penalty for cursing a parent?/41/en
From Theonomy Wiki
If you stole someone's sheep, and were caught, you would have to pay them back two sheep (Exodus 22:4). Compare this with British common law, for example, under which stealing a sheep (classified as "felony theft") got you the death penalty. In Biblical law, there is never a death penalty for property crime. They are always dealt with by restitution to the injured party (not restitution to the civil government).
