Wrong. You claimed the following:
"
Nowhere does the OT state that the punishments are supposed to be carried out at the whim of man."
He provided you with biblical verses giving man the right to smite his servants so long as they live. Smiting can be used as punishment. Unless you can show how the bible explicitly says that man cannot use smiting as a punishment, you stand refuted.
This rust covered man just successfully showed how you were wrong. Sad.
