利未记 19:27-28 RCUVSS

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:3-37

The holy Law in the holy life. I. REVERENCE FOR PARENTS . True religion is seen in common, everyday life. If we love God, we love man. Family peace and order is best preserved by appeal to deep, religious motives. Natural affection is not sufficient against fallen human nature. "God says, Thou shalt," must be the support of natural feeling. II. SABBATH KEEPING . Not as a Jewish regulation, but as both the demand of physical nature and the gracious provision of God for us.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:9-34

Considerateness. We gather from these verse— I. THAT THE FEAR OF GOD WILL SURELY LEAD TO THE LOVE OF MAN . That piety which begins and ends in acts of devotion is one that may be reasonably suspected: it is not of the scriptural order. True piety is in consulting the will of the heavenly Father ( Matthew 7:21 ), and his will is that we should love and be kind to one another ( Ephesians 4:32 ). Philanthropy is a word which may not have its synonym in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:11-36

Stealing is forbidden by the law of man, and by the Law of God. It is forbidden by the law of man in order to prevent injury being done to a citizen, and its sanction is fear of punishment. Remove the fear of punishment, and the goods of another will no longer be respected. It is forbidden by the Law of God because it is displeasing to God; because honesty and uprightness are in themselves right; because to defraud another is in itself wrong. Take away the fear of punishment, and there... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:11-36

Integrity. The Jews have always been considered a cunning and crafty race; they have been credited with a willingness to overreach in business dealings. Men would rather have transactions with others than with them, lest they should find themselves worsted in the bargain. This suspicion may be well founded; but if it be so, it ought to be remembered that it is the consequence of the long and cruel disadvantages under which they have suffered, and is not clue to anything in their own blood... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:18-34

We have the testimony of our Lord ( Matthew 22:9 ) and of the Apostle St. Paul ( Romans 13:9 ; Galatians 5:14 ) that to obey the injunction, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," is to fulfill all the commandments of the second table of the Law; and for that reason St. James calls it a royal law ( James 2:8 ). Here, therefore, the Levitical Law culminates in its highest point, so far as our duties towards men are concerned. Lest the Jew should confine the idea of thy neighbour... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:19-28

Fidelity to God. In the verses before us we note the injunction— I. THAT THE STATUTES OF THE LORD MUST BE KEPT . These require: 1 . That there be no unnatural mixtures. (a) Cattle which God ordered "after their kind" ( Genesis 1:25 ), are not to be let to gender with diverse kinds. Hybrids are degenerated creatures; they are monsters; and they are withal unfruitful. (b) Mingled seed must not be sown in the field. The plants of both kinds in such a case... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 19:26-28

After a repetition of the fundamental ceremonial law against eating things which have the blood in them (the LXX . rendering, ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων , "upon the mountains," arises from a mistaken reading), follow prohibitions read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 19:26-28

Certain pagan customs, several of them connected with magic, are here grouped together. The prohibition to eat anything with the blood may indeed refer to the eating of meat which had not been properly bled in slaughtering (Leviticus 7:26; Leviticus 17:10, etc.): but it is not improbable that there may be a special reference to some sort of magical or idolatrous rites. Compare Ezekiel 33:25.Leviticus 19:26Observe times - It is not clear whether the original word refers to the fancied... read more

Leviticus 19:27. The corners of your heads That is, your temples; ye shall not cut off the hair of your heads round about your temples. This the Gentiles did, either for the worship of their idols, to whom young men used to consecrate their hair, being cut off from their heads, as Homer, Plutarch, and many others write; or in funerals or immoderate mournings, as appears from Isaiah 15:2; Jeremiah 48:37. And the like is to be thought concerning the beard, or the hair in the corner, that... read more
