Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

that killeth: Leviticus 24:21, Exodus 21:34-36

beast for beast: Heb. life for life

Reciprocal: Exodus 22:14 - make it good

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he that killeth a beast shall make it good,.... Pay for it, give the value of it, or another as good as that instead of it, as follows:

beast for beast; or "soul for soul"; life for life, that is, a living one for that the life of which is taken away, and one every way as good as that.
