Then all the people
This phrase emphasizes the collective responsibility and unity of the Israelite community. In the Hebrew context, "all the people" (כָּל־הָעָם, kol-ha'am) signifies the entire nation, underscoring the communal nature of justice and the importance of shared values. The Israelites were called to be a holy nation, set apart for God's purposes, and this required a collective adherence to God's laws. The phrase reminds us of the importance of community in maintaining righteousness and justice.

will hear
The Hebrew word for "hear" (שָׁמַע, shama) goes beyond mere auditory reception; it implies understanding, internalizing, and responding appropriately. In the biblical context, hearing is often linked with obedience. This phrase suggests that the public nature of justice serves as a deterrent to wrongdoing, as the people are expected to learn from the consequences faced by those who transgress the law.

and be afraid
The fear mentioned here (יִרְאוּ, yir'u) is not merely terror but a reverential awe and respect for God's laws and the consequences of disobedience. This fear is intended to lead to wisdom and a healthy respect for divine authority. In a conservative Christian perspective, this fear is seen as a necessary component of a godly life, encouraging believers to live in accordance with God's commandments.

and will never again
This phrase indicates a desired outcome of permanent change in behavior. The Hebrew construction suggests a strong negation, emphasizing the hope that the community will learn from the example set by the enforcement of justice. It reflects the transformative power of God's law when it is applied correctly and consistently.

do such an evil thing
The term "evil" (רָעָה, ra'ah) in this context refers to actions that are morally wrong and contrary to God's commandments. The phrase underscores the seriousness of sin and the need for the community to reject behaviors that are harmful and destructive. In the conservative Christian view, this serves as a reminder of the fallen nature of humanity and the need for redemption through Christ.

among you
This phrase highlights the internal nature of the community's responsibility. The Hebrew word for "among" (בְּקִרְבֶּךָ, bekirbecha) suggests an intimate, internal presence, indicating that the community must be vigilant in maintaining purity and righteousness within its own ranks. It serves as a call for self-examination and accountability, ensuring that the community remains faithful to God's covenant.
