Leviticus 18:25 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown Book Notes

Leviticus 18:25

23 Nor shall you mate with any ^aanimal, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it. It is perversion.

24 ^a‘Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; ^bfor by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you.

25 For ^athe land is defiled; therefore I ^bvisit the punishment of its iniquity upon it, and the land ^cvomits out its inhabitants.

26 ^aYou shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations, either any of your own nation or any stranger who dwells among you

27 (for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and thus the land is defiled),

Leviticus

LEVITICUS. So called from its treating of the laws relating to the ritual, the services, and sacrifices of the Jewish religion, the superintendence of which was entrusted to the Levitical priesthood. It is chiefly, however, the duties of the priests, "the sons of Aaron," which this book describes; and its claim to be the work of Moses is established by the following passages:— II Chronicles 30:16; Nehemiah 8:14; Jeremiah 7:22-23; Ezekiel 20:11 Matthew 8:4; Luke 2:22; John 8:5; Romans 10:4; Romans 13:9; II Corinthians 6:16; Galatians 3:12; I Peter 1:16.
