"Wilful murder ought always to be punished with death", wrote Matthew Henry in the 17th century. "Here, God establishes government and gives it the sword, to hold wantonness in check, lest violence and other sins proceed without limit." -- Martin Luther.
Using both Old and New Testaments as a final authority, George Cheever clearly demonstrates that capital punishment was instituted by God for the punishment of murderers and has never been rescinded. Cheever's clear commentary and biblical arguments can help guide us to a better understanding of this controversial issue."
