Even cursing a person can lead to corporal punishment under Noahide Law: Book Review, The Rainbow Covenant

 TABLE OF CONTENTS


 Even cursing a person can lead to corporal punishment under Noahide Law:

In Israel's law, cursing is permitted only when prompted by pure motives, which ate selfless motives, and justified by the guilt — the reprehensible conduct — of the person being cursed. Sometimes some people, due to their crimes, deserve others' curses. But ordinatily, when a curse against a person is forbidden, a Torah court can impose no more than corporal, rather than capital, punishment. That level of penalty is revealing. (Dallen, 2003, p. 239)

Even cursing pagan idols can lead to punishment for blasphemy under Noahide Law: Book Review, The Rainbow Covenant


 The featured image comes from the book The Rainbow Covenant by Michael Dallen. It shows a tourist poking fun at a pagan idol in a museum; notice two securing guards running toward him with clubs. This is how Dallen chose to depict the commandment that even blaspheming a pagan idol can come with punishment if the blasphemer in any definitionally loose way associated the idol with the "One God", this can be as simple as attributing wisdom to the idol which is said to be an attribute of the Jewish god. 

Pagans adore and venerate their idols. Ignorant folk associate their false gods with the One God. They invest their Athenas with His wisdom, their earth mothers with His mercy or His infinite love, their father gods with His omnipotence; etc. So the fierce public curse or angry taunting insult by which the blasphemer brings contempt against a mere idol can easily reach beyond its target — that is, against Him, as pagans think they know Him. (Dallen, 2003, p. 235)

Under Noahide Law only non-Jews are punished for blaspheming using ANY name for god, Jews must use specific holy names to be indicted 

Following the majority viewpoint, the Torah prohibition that governs Israel is narrower than the Rainbow Law is here. Hebrews are legally culpable only if they damn the Name — the Tetragrammaton — or (while it isn't said to merit capital punishment) one of the seven holy descriptive Hebrew titles by which God revealed Himself to Israel. A Ben Noah is guilty if he curses God by any of the names or titles or descriptive designations by which he knows the God of Israel, the One God, the Almighty.  (Dallen, 2003, p. 233)
