Leviticus 20:23 in Context — Leviticus 20

21 E o que tomar a mulher de seu irmão, é imundícia; a nudez de seu irmão descobriu; sem filhos serão.

22 Guardai, pois, todos meus estatutos e todos meus regulamentos, e ponde-os por obra: e não vos vomitará a terra, na qual eu vos introduzo para que habiteis nela.

23 E não andeis nas práticas da gente que eu lançarei de diante de vós: porque eles fizeram todas estas coisas, e os tive em abominação.

24 Porém a vós vos disse: Vós possuireis a terra deles, e eu a darei a vós para que a possuais por herança, terra que flui leite e mel: Eu sou o SENHOR vosso Deus, que vos separei dos povos.

25 Portanto, vós fareis diferença entre animal limpo e impuro, e entre ave impura e limpa: e não torneis abomináveis vossas pessoas nos animais, nem nas aves, nem em nenhuma coisa que vai arrastando pela terra, as quais vos separei por impuras.
