God told Noah that ''Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed;...''Because
Answer Details
God told Noah that ''Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed;...'' because man is made in God's image. This means that human life is sacred and should be valued and protected. God created man in his own image, and therefore, taking another human life is an affront to God himself. The statement is a commandment given to Noah and his descendants to establish the sanctity of human life and to discourage the practice of murder. The punishment for those who take another human life is also stated in the statement, which is that their own life shall be taken.
