Sinai & The Law

Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: But reprove him openly, lest thou incur sin through him.

Seek not revenge, nor be mindful of the injury of thy citizens. Thou shalt love thy friend as thyself. I am the Lord.

Keep ye my laws. Thou shalt not make thy cattle to gender with beasts of any other kind. Thou shalt not sow thy field with different seeds. Thou shalt not wear a garment that is woven of two sorts.

If a man carnally lie with a woman that is a bondservant and marriageable, and yet not redeemed with a price, nor made free: they both shall be scourged: and they shall not be put to death, because she was not a free woman.

And for his trespass he shall offer a ram to the Lord, at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

And the priest shall pray for him: and for his sin before the Lord: and he shall have mercy on him, and the sin shall be forgiven.

When you shall be come into the land, and shall have planted in it fruit trees, you shall take away the firstfruits of them. The fruit that comes forth shall be unclean to you: neither shall you eat of them.

But in the fourth year, all their fruit shall be sanctified, to the praise of the Lord.

And in the fifth year you shall eat the fruits thereof, gathering the increase thereof. I am the Lord your God.

You shall not eat with blood. You shall not divine nor observe dreams.

Nor shall you cut your hair roundwise: nor shave your beard.

You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh, for the dead: neither shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks. I am the Lord.

Make not thy daughter a common strumpet, lest the land be defiled, and filled with wickedness.

Keep ye my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am the Lord.

Go not aside after wizards: neither ask any thing of soothsayers, to be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.

Rise up before the hoary head, and honour the person of the aged man: and fear the Lord thy God. I am the Lord.

If a stranger dwell in your land, and abide among you, do not upbraid hin:

But let him be among you as one of the same country. And you shall love him as yourselves: for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

Do not any unjust thing in judgment, in rule, in weight, or in measure.

Let the balance be just and the weights equal, the bushel just, and the sextary equal. I am the Lord your God, that brought you out of the land of Egypt.

Keep all my precepts, and all my judgments: and do them. I am the Lord.

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: If any man of the children Israel, or of the strangers that dwell in Israel, give of his seed to the idol Moloch, dying let him die. The people of the land shall stone him.

And I will set my face against him: and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he hath given of his seed to Moloch, and hath defiled my sanctuary, and profaned my holy name.

And if the people of the land neglecting, and as it were little regarding my commandment, let alone the man that hath given of his seed to Moloch, and will not kill him:
