I, the LORD, am your God.＂ 所以你们应遵守我的禁令，不可仿效你们以前的人所有的丑恶风俗，免得因此受到玷污：我，上主是你们的天主。 Footnotes(注解) 1 [6-18] These laws are formulated as directed to the male Israelites only, but naturally the same norms of consanguinity and affinity would apply to the women as well. Marriage, as well as casual intercourse, is here forbidden between men and women of the specified degrees of relationship. 2 [16] With your brother's wife: it was the violation of this law which aroused the wrath of John the Baptist against Herod Antipas. Cf Mark 6:18. An exception to this law is made in Deut 25:5. 3 [21] Immolated to Molech: the reference is to the Canaanite custom of sacrificing children to the god Molech. The little victims were first slain and then cremated. Cf Ezekiel 16:20-22; 20:26, 31; 23:37. |
