Laws of Sexual Morality

1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: a‘I am the Lord your God.  
3 aAccording to the doings of the land of Egypt, where you dwelt, you shall not do; and baccording to the doings of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you, you shall not do; nor shall you walk in their2 ordinances.  
4 aYou shall observe My judgments and keep My ordinances, to walk in them: I am the Lord your God.  
5 You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, which if a man does, he shall live by them: I am the Lord.
6 ‘None of you shall approach anyone who is near of kin to him, to uncover his nakedness: I am the Lord.

Leviticus 18:1-5

I think it becomes clear here that when this introduction is filled in with the laws that follow in this and in the next two chapters, that God intends that separation from the world begins in the home at the very earliest possible point in a child's infancy, with a right example from the parents, combined with positive instruction. In order to really fill that out we would have to go through it verse by verse. But those of you who know, chapter 18 mostly focuses on sexual immorality. Hardly anything will destroy a family like sexual immorality.

Excerpted from The Fifth Commandment

Leviticus 18:1-5

If we do keep His law, they produce life because of whose laws they are. It is not the laws themselves that are going to produce life (verse 5), they are just signs. It is because of who stands behind and gave those laws that they produce life. They are the Creator God’s laws giving directions regarding how we are to live. It is because of Him that they produce life. God’s laws give counsel on all levels of life: physical, moral, spiritual, and relational.
