Is punishing homosexuality by death "evil"?

Is punishing homosexuality by death "evil"?

Or does it depend on the period of history and the local culture?

Same question for things like adultery, blasphemy, disobedience to parents, lying about being a virgin, etc.

Yes it's evil....per Jesus.

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone".

Was it "evil" prior to him saying that?

A Christian would likely say that the words of Jesus 'outranks' the OT and render that question moot.

A modern day Jew, who only believes in the OT might say yes.
