Wisdom & Truth Verses
Every verse of God's eternal Word carries wisdom and truth. A home for all the rich teachings not captured elsewhere.
And every soul that eateth that which died {of itself}, or that which was torn {with beasts, whether it be} one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe {himself} in water, and be unclean until the even: then shall he be clean. {that which died...: Heb. a carcase}
But if he wash {them} not, nor bathe his flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity.
None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover {their} nakedness: I {am} the LORD. {near...: Heb. remainder of his flesh}
Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it {is} confusion.
Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
(For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which {were} before you, and the land is defiled;)
That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that {were} before you.
For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit {them} shall be cut off from among their people.
Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I {am} the LORD your God.
