Your jumbling.
Molech is clearly spoken about, I was waiting for it to be brought up. It’s asked as a open question “how can it be that one and he gets killed but more not “?
According to you what’s the question. There is no clear rational to a punishment scale
The premise of the whole question is predicated on my contention.
Since the severity of the punishment indicates the severity of the crime, how can it be that one kid and he gets killed and more he goes free? How can more kids equal a less severe offense.
To which a chiddush is revealed that in this case it’s so heinous that no earthly punishment suffices.
(according to your logic, raping a divorced girl is worse than raping a married woman because by the married Woman you get killed but here nothing?)
I don’t know the Rambam you are referring to but from the context I’d imagine he means you can kill him right then to stop the act.
That’s not a punishment. So you can’t bring a proof from that. It’s more like בא במחתרת
Which does apply in some cases of stealing.
Orchodosh
Those are payments that every mazik of another person must deal with
They have nothing to do with rape
They apply to it just like they apply if I give someone a black eye
Which is more to my point. The Torah views the rape like any other person to person hezek
You Pay what you damaged
If you do it to a girl who for whatever reason is not bothered by it (I’m discussing hypothetical don’t get sidetracked by telling me it’s not possible) you would not have to pay those payments.
If that same hypothetical girl was married though, yet would get killed even though she doesn’t mind
Ergo it’s worse to rape a married woman than a single one.
Happens to be over there the issue also isn’t the coercion factor. It’s the fact that she is married.
