Kill whoever does not listen to the Priest or the Judge in the Bible:
In Deuteronomy 17:8-13, the LORD gives the law courts and the regulation of the courts and the vital consequence of the decision of the judge!
In Deuteronomy 17:12, the Lord commands to kill (according to the Biblical versions):
The man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest;
The man who does presumptuously and will not listen to the priest or to the judge;
The man who acts presumptuously by not obeying the priest;
The man who does foolish things and will not listen to the judge or the priest;
The man who shows contempt for the judge or for the priest;
The man that will not listen to the priest or the judge;
Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest; or
Anyone who presumes to override or twist the decision handed down by the priest or judge
-----------------------------------
Deuteronomy 17:12 in different Versions of the Bible:
New International Version (NIV)
The man who shows contempt for the judge or for the priest who stands ministering there to the LORD your God must be put to death. You must purge the evil from Israel.
New American Standard Bible (NASB)
The man who acts presumptuously by not listening to the priest who stands there to serve the LORD your God, nor to the judge, that man shall die; thus you shall purge the evil from Israel.
Amplified Bible (AMP)
The man who does presumptuously and will not listen to the priest who stands to minister there before the Lord your God or to the judge, that man shall die; so you shall purge the evil from Israel.
New Living Translation (NLT)
Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the Lord your God must die. In this way you will purge the evil from Israel.
King James Version (KJV)
And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.

Kill whoever does not listen to the Priest or the Judge in the Quran:
There is nothing like that in the noble Quran.
Allah does not command anything like that.
It is interesting to know that there is NO Priesthood in Islam and the relation between the LORD and man is strictly direct without "any in between".
-------------------------------
In this series, the LORD in the Bible commands to kill many kinds of people. What if the Quran was the Book which commands to kill anyone who 1) is Uncircumcised, 2) curses his parents, 3) is a gay, 4) is Zoosexual 5) works in the Sabbath! 6) tries to turn you away from the LORD, 7) lives in that town, 8) is a false prophet, 9) is a Midianites, 10) is the Owner of the ox, 11) is adulterer, 12) eats leavened bread, 13) eats the meat of the sacrifice of peace, 14) eats blood, 15) approaches the holy gifts, 16) does not eat the Passover, 17) touches a dead body, 18) sins defiantly and/or blasphemes the name of the LORD, 19) are old men, young men and maidens, women and children, 20) the Murder, 21) whoever gives his seed to Molech, 22) the medium, the spiritist, the necromancer and the Fortune-Teller, 23) whoever touches the Mount Sinai, 24) whoever kidnaps another and either sells him or still has him and 25) whoever does not listen to the Priest or the Judge. None of these Biblical Commandments are present in the Noble Quran. However, what the Western Media would have said if the Quran was the book which commands these 24 Commandments? What names they have given the Quran in such case?

Back to the main issue of my series of articles; this is my question to you smart readers: "Is the Quran quoted from the Bible?"
