If a person curses his father or mother with the Tetragrammaton⁹⁶lit. ‘the distinguished name’. he is liable to the penalty of stoning,⁹⁷Cf. Lev. 24, 14. Stoning is one of the major penalties imposed by a court. but if only with the attributes he is liable to a warning.⁹⁸i.e. he is guilty of transgressing a negative commandment, the penalty of which is scourging with thirty-nine stripes.
