Leviticus 19:9 - Forerunner Commentary

Leviticus 19:9

7 And if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It shall not be accepted.

8 Therefore everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the hallowed offering of the Lord; and that person shall be cut off from his people.

9 ^a‘When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.

10 And you shall not glean your vineyard, nor shall you gather every grape of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the poor and the stranger: I am the Lord your God.

11 ^a‘You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, ^bnor lie to one another.

12 And you shall not ^aswear by My name falsely, ^bnor shall you profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.

13 ^a‘You shall not cheat your neighbor, nor rob him. ^bThe wages of him who is hired shall not remain with you all night until morning.

14 You shall not curse the deaf, ^anor put a stumbling block before the blind, but shall fear your God: I am the Lord.

15 ‘You shall do no injustice in ^ajudgment. You shall not ^bbe partial to the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty. In righteousness you shall judge your neighbor.

16 You shall not go about as a ^atalebearer among your people; nor shall you ^btake a stand against the life of your neighbor: I am the Lord.

17 ^a‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. ^bYou shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.

18 ^aYou shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, ^bbut you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.

19 ‘You shall keep My statutes. You shall not let your livestock breed with another kind. You shall not sow your field with mixed seed. Nor shall a garment of mixed linen and wool come upon you.

20 ‘Whoever lies carnally with a woman who is ^abetrothed to a man as a concubine, and who has not at all been redeemed nor given her freedom, for this there shall be¹ scourging; but they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
