Principles of Separation
1 On that day athey read from the Book of Moses in the hearing of the people, and in it was found written bthat no Ammonite or Moabite should ever come into the assembly of God,
2 because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and water, but ahired Balaam against them to curse them. bHowever, our God turned the curse into a blessing.
3 So it was, when they had heard the Law, athat they separated all the mixed multitude from Israel.
