The term is used in various contexts throughout the Scriptures, illustrating both God's righteous judgment and the legal practices of ancient Israel. Divine Judgment The Bible frequently portrays God as the ultimate judge who issues sentences based on His perfect justice and righteousness. In the Old Testament, God's sentences are often depicted as direct consequences of the people's obedience or disobedience to His commandments. For instance, in the book of Genesis, God pronounces a sentence upon Adam and Eve following their disobedience: "To the woman He said, 'I will sharply increase your pain in childbirth; in pain you will bring forth children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.' And to Adam He said, 'Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat, cursed is the ground because of you; through toil you will eat of it all the days of your life'" (<a href="/genesis/3-16.htm">Genesis 3:16-17</a>). In the New Testament, the concept of divine sentencing is further developed with the promise of final judgment. Jesus speaks of the separation of the righteous from the wicked, where each will receive their due sentence: "Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life" (<a href="/matthew/25-46.htm">Matthew 25:46</a>). Human Legal Proceedings In addition to divine judgment, the Bible also addresses human legal systems and the sentences they impose. The Mosaic Law provided a comprehensive legal code for the Israelites, including various sentences for different offenses. For example, the law prescribed specific penalties for crimes such as theft, murder, and false witness. In Deuteronomy, the principle of proportional justice is emphasized: "Show no pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot" (<a href="/deuteronomy/19-21.htm">Deuteronomy 19:21</a>). The role of judges and elders in administering justice and issuing sentences is also highlighted in the Scriptures. In the book of Exodus, Moses appoints capable men to serve as judges over the people, instructing them to judge fairly and impartially: "Select capable men from all the people—men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain—and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens" (<a href="/exodus/18-21.htm">Exodus 18:21</a>). Mercy and Redemption While the Bible underscores the importance of justice and the execution of sentences, it also emphasizes God's mercy and the possibility of redemption. The Psalms frequently appeal to God's mercy in the face of deserved judgment: "Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; remember me according to Your loving devotion, because of Your goodness, O LORD" (<a href="/psalms/25-7.htm">Psalm 25:7</a>). The New Testament reveals the ultimate expression of God's mercy through Jesus Christ, who bore the sentence of sin on behalf of humanity. The Apostle Paul writes, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (<a href="/romans/6-23.htm">Romans 6:23</a>). Through faith in Christ, believers are spared the sentence of eternal separation from God and are granted the promise of eternal life. In summary, the concept of "sentence" in the Bible encompasses both divine and human judgments, reflecting God's justice, the legal practices of ancient Israel, and the overarching theme of mercy and redemption through Jesus Christ.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
