Torah Temimah points to Sanhedrin / Sifrei.
אשר יעשה. בזדון — פרט לשוגג.
English: Who acts — presumptuously — excluding one who acts unwittingly.
Only deliberate, knowing defiance of the high court’s ruling incurs the death penalty.
Derash on the verse (Sifrei) — not a formal named middah of the 13.
The death penalty for rebellion against the court applies only to intentional, high-handed disobedience.
