(דברים יג ו) **וְהַנָּבִיא הַהוּא** – וְלֹא אָנוּס.

[Sifrei Devarim 86:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Sifrei%20Devarim/r/86:2)

**אוֹ חֹלֵם הַחֲלוֹם הַהוּא** – וְלֹא מֻטְעֶה.

###### Sifrei Devarim 86:3
[Sifrei Devarim 86:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Sifrei%20Devarim/r/86:3)

**יוּמָת כִּי דִבֶּר סָרָה עַל ה׳ אֱלֹהֵיכֶם**, וַהֲלֹא דְבָרִים קַל וָחוֹמֶר: וּמָה הַמְזַיֵּף דִּבְרֵי חֲבֵרוֹ חַיָּב מִיתָה, הַמְזַיֵּף דְּבָרָיו שֶׁל מָקוֹם עַל אַחַת כַּמָּה וְכַמָּה!

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
"he is to be put to death, for he has spoken perversely of the L-rd your G-d": Now does this not follow *a fortiori*, viz.: If one falsifies his neighbor's words, he is (in certain instances) to be put to death, then if (as a false prophet) he falsifies the words of the L-rd, how much more so!

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
"who took you out of the land of Egypt": Even if your only indebtedness to Him were His taking you out of the land of Egypt, would that not be sufficient!

**וְהַפֹּדְךָ מִבֵּית עֲבָדִים**, אֲפִלּוּ אֵין לוֹ עָלֶיךָ אֶלָּא שֶׁפְּדָאֲךָ מִבֵּית עֲבָדִים – דַּי.

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
"and who redeemed you from the house of bondage": Even if your only indebtedness to Him were His taking you out of the house of bondage, would that not be sufficient!


###### Sifrei Devarim 86:6
[Sifrei Devarim 86:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Sifrei%20Devarim/r/86:6)

**לְהַדִּיחֲךָ מִן הַדֶּרֶךְ**, נֶאֱמַר כָּאן הַדָּחָה וְנֶאֶמְרָה לְהַלָּן (דברים יג יא) הַדָּחָה, מָה הַדָּחָה הָאֲמוּרָה לְהַלָּן בִּסְקִילָה – אַף הַדָּחָה הָאֲמוּרָה כָּאן בִּסְקִילָה. רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמֵר: אֵין מִיתָתוֹ שֶׁל זֶה אֶלָּא בְחֶנֶק.

**Sefaria Community Translation:**
"to turn you astray from the way": It is written here "turning astray," and, elsewhere (*Ibid*. 11) (in respect to one who incites to idol worship), "turning astray." Just as there the punishment is stoning, so, here. R. Shimon says: This one's death is only by strangulation.
