According to Judaism, if you hit a jew then you deserve to be killed? Is it true?

[eeeeeeeeeee]

As I was looking through the Talmud, I came across this section (Sanhedrin 58b)

-Sanhedrin 58b. If a heathen (gentile) hits a Jew, the gentile must be
killed


-Sanhedrin 57a . A Jew need not pay a gentile ("Cuthean") the wages owedhim for work

-Sanhedrin 57a . When a Jew murders a gentile ("Cuthean"), there will be

no death penalty. What a Jew steals from a gentile he may keep

-Sanhedrin 58b A heathen who keeps a day of rest, deserves death, for it is written, And a day and a night they shall not rest

Theres alot of messed up crap in the bible like that. Fortuneately most abrahamic monotheists choose to "not be complete followers of gods law" and therefore dont pullshit like this.

Not my understanding of Judaism or how the great Jewish sages behaved. I personally see all life as sacred and having listened to talks by the Chief Rabbi of Britain and other Rabbis would say that they view life in the same way.

Sad if these ancient Rabbis did think like this but would have to know a lot more about the context and the people and their lives to know if this was the case.

Not true. Check out: http://talmud.faithweb.com/articles/kill.html

Most web sites are either garbage (tell outright lies) or take commentary out of context.

Hearken and hear, O ye my people, saith the Lord and your God, ye whom I delight to bless with the greatest of all blessings, ye that hear me; and ye that hear me not will I curse, that have professed my name, with the heaviest of all cursings.
