민수기 35:17의 미드라쉬
וְאִ֡ם בְּאֶ֣בֶן יָד֩ אֲשֶׁר־יָמ֨וּת בָּ֥הּ הִכָּ֛הוּ וַיָּמֹ֖ת רֹצֵ֣חַֽ ה֑וּא מ֥וֹת יוּמַ֖ת הָרֹצֵֽחַ׃
만일 사람을 죽일 만한 돌을 손에 들고 사람을 쳐죽이면 이는 고살한 자니 그 고살자를 반드시 죽일 것이요
Mekhilta d'Rabbi Yishmael
"with stone or fist": I might think that he is liable (only if he strikes) with these, but otherwise he is not liable; it is, therefore, written (Numbers 35:17) "And if with a hand-stone (i.e., a stone the size of a full hand) (whereby he can die he strike him"). He is not liable until he strikes him with something that has the potential to kill and in a locus which is critical to life.
