You have misrepresented my position and the Biblical distinction.

Murder was not the only offense to incur capital punishment. Other offenses, as you may recall, that required capital punishment included: willful Sabbath-breaking, rebellion against parental authority, rape, adultery, and failing to restrain one's dangerous animal to the point where it killed someone (this list is not intended to be exhaustive, merely descriptive).

In the end, any sin, however small, requires capital punishment of the offender. The only way for each of us to obtain mercy and pardon, is to accept Jesus' substitutionary payment of our penalty in our place.

M: Where in the Bible did Jesus command divorce? He commanded capital punishment multiple times (a point you have not confessed).

A: He commanded the people to spy out the land, which was not His will.

God sent them into the land for a special purpose, but the spies brought back an evil report, full of unbelief and complaint. {RH, October 3, 1893 par. 6}

Here it was proposed by the people that spies be sent up to survey the country. The matter was presented before the Lord by Moses, and permission was granted, with the direction that one of the rulers of each tribe should be selected for this purpose. {PP 387.1}

MM - you questions are not on topic. Does God give commands in situations which are not His will? YES. Who proposed to send in spies? God? Nope.

God never commands against His will.

Kland, you refuse to confess the Bible distinguishes between killing and murder. Jesus commanded capital punishment in the Law of Moses. You refuse to confess it.
