My perplexity on the other hand is basically
Where we are comparing two unconnected crimes.
Emotion would dictate that crime A is much worse.
Yet (in my understanding) the Torah seems to view crime B as the greater crime.
OK obviously my emotions don’t agree with the clear sight of hashem.
It’s not a logical conundrum.
It’s a case of misplaced emotions
