<td valign="top" width="50%">'''4''' A Noahide that murdered someone, even if it was an unborn child -- he is given capital punishment over this. Even if the person killed was terminally ill, or bound and place before a lion, or allowed him to die of starvation -- since he caused someone to die in some manner, he is given capital punishment. Even if someone is killed by a pursuer, that could have been saved [by the action] of even one of his limbs, he is given capital punishment, whereas this is not the case in Jewish law.</td>
