SOME SAY WE ARE IN a time of law
some say our democratic countries
Have the best Juridical systems ever
but by the torah's law you couldn't be death sentenced
two witnesses have to see a man
and before he killed tell him that it is forbidden to kill
and that such crimes get a death sentence,
and the Talmud tells the story of a man with a knife
running after another man into a cave
then the man comes back with the knife full of blood
and says that the one who was killed took his knife and killed himself
and that he took the knife back because it's his and it's expensive.
Tell me, is there judge that would send this man free
Where is the jury that would say “Not Guilty”
but for all we know nobody saw him killing
and by Jewish law he is a free man
and God may judge him if he wants,
or after all, if nobody's seen him killing
how do we know he did it?
