The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Leviticus 19:1-8

Chiefly of the First Table v. 1. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, v. 2. Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel and say unto them, ye shall be holy; for I, the Lord, your God, am holy. They were not only to be pure and sinless, but their entire life was to present a definite and unvarying contrast to sin and transgression in any form. That is the fundamental thought of the Chapter. v. 3. Ye shall fear every man his mother and his father. The mother is here mentioned... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 19:1-37

The more positive habits of separation are insisted on by the repetition of laws already given, with one reiterated emphasis, namely, the fact that the God of this people is Jehovah. There was, first, a general call to holiness based upon the essential reason, 'Ye shall be holy; for I Jehovah your God am holy." This is the profoundest reason that can possibly be assigned. The holiness of Jehovah must be exemplified in His people. Every departure from the pathway of holiness is a profaning of... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 19:1-2

Chapter 19. God Requires His People To Be Holy. Having spoken of what God requires of His people especially as regards sexual relations which had a vital place in a patriarchal society, God now moves on to remind them that they are to be holy in every way. They must not be spiritually skin-diseased. It is not apparent from the English text but in this chapter there is continual movement from plural to singular and back again in order to bring home the personal application of the words. In view... read more

Leviticus 19:1-Ruth : . Holiness, Piety, Idolatry, Peace-offerings.— Note the mention of the mother first. On the Sabbath, see pp. 101f., Exodus 20:8 *. Idols, lit. “ things of nought” ; only here and in Leviticus 26:1 in Pentateuch; common in 2 Isaiah ( cf. 44:9ff.). “ Molten,” specially prohibited also in Exodus 34:17; not in Exodus 20:4. On consumption of peace offerings, see Leviticus 7:15-Job :, which, however, only allows this latitude for a vow. Since peace offerings alone were... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 19:2

Ye shall be holy, separated from all the forementioned defilements, and entirely consecrated to God, and obedient to all his laws and statutes. I the Lord your God am holy, both in my essence, and in all my laws, which are holy and just and good, and in all my actions; whereas the gods of the heathens are unholy both in their laws and institutions, whereby they allow and require filthy and abominable actions; and in their practices, some of them having given wicked examples to their... read more
