Translations:Are you allowed to use deadly force in defense of (mere) property?/14/en
From Theonomy Wiki
The law seeks to guard the lives of both parties involved. The householder is exonerated if he kills the intruder at night in the defense of his home. Conversely, the life of the thief is also protected by the law. If he is killed in plain daylight, then the slayer is held responsible for the homicide and is vulnerable to blood vengeance (Num. 35.27; Deut. 19.10). (p. 474)
