Wesley's Notes for Leviticus 24:21

24:22 One law - That is, in matters of common right, but not as to church privileges.

24:23 Stone him with stones - This blasphemer was the first that died by the law of Moses. Stephen the first that died for the gospel, died by the abuse of the law. The martyr and the malefactor suffered the same death; but how vast the difference between them.
