Sebastian Benefield, English Calvinistic preacher, in his commentarie on Amos, mentions cruelty 82 times. He hones in on cruelty in punishment. Even when Deuteronomy allows for flogging, you must not degrade the person in your eyes.

Do we today see the degrading as a necessary part of maintaining the security of a free state?

How can you avoid tyrannous cruelty for infractions against yourself?
