In 2 Samuel 12:15, because David committed a crime in order to marry Bathsheba, god killed their firstborn child--not the offending adulterers! In fact, the poor baby suffered seven days before dying. It was kind of strange that god should do this, since in Deuteronomy 22:22 god clearly commanded that adulterous couples should be executed and in Deuteronomy 24:16 said that children should not be put to death for the sins of their fathers. God's ways are mysterious beyond all insanity.
