How could a puny human ever be that much of a threat to a all powerful God?
Would God give them the honor and admit they were that much of a threat, that the only way to stop or silence them would be to threaten or kill them?
Does a Father threaten, beat or kill his little girls if they disagree with or disobey Him, to get their obedience and silence?
What would that make Him look like, in front of a crowd of onlookers?
He may humilate them in front of the crowd to such a degree they would beg for death instead though.
They would live, and think twice before trying a stunt like that again.....of that I am pretty damned sure.
