Leviticus, 20

1. Yahweh spoke to Moses and said:

1. The LORD said to Moses,

2. 'Say to the Israelites: "Anyone, be he Israelite or alien resident in Israel, who gives any of his children to Molech, will be put to death. The people of the country must stone him,

2. "Say to the people of Israel, Any man of the people of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who gives any of his children to Molech shall be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones.

3. and I shall set my face against that man and outlaw him from his people; for by giving a child of his to Molech he has defiled my sanctuary and profaned my holy name.

3. I myself will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given one of his children to Molech, defiling my sanctuary and profaning my holy name.

4. If the people of the country choose to close their eyes to the man's action when he gives a child of his to Molech, and do not put him to death,

4. And if the people of the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives one of his children to Molech, and do not put him to death,

5. I myself shall turn my face against that man and his clan. I shall outlaw them from their people, both him and all those after him who prostitute themselves by following Molech.

5. then I will set my face against that man and against his family, and will cut them off from among their people, him and all who follow him in playing the harlot after Molech.

6. "If anyone has recourse to the spirits of the dead or to magicians, to prostitute himself by following them, I shall set my face against him and outlaw him from his people.

6. "If a person turns to mediums and wizards, playing the harlot after them, I will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.

7. "Sanctify yourselves and be holy, for I am Yahweh your God.

7. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the LORD your God.

8. "You will keep my laws and put them into practice, for it is I, Yahweh, who make you holy.

8. Keep my statutes, and do them; I am the LORD who sanctify you.

9. Hence: "Anyone who curses father or mother will be put to death. Having cursed father or mother, the blood will be on that person's own head.

9. For every one who curses his father or his mother shall be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother, his blood is upon him.

10. "The man who commits adultery with his neighbour's wife will be put to death, he and the woman.

10. "If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall be put to death.

11. "The man who has intercourse with his father's wife has infringed his father's sexual prerogative. Both of them will be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

11. The man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness; both of them shall be put to death, their blood is upon them.

12. "The man who has intercourse with his daughter-in-law: both of them will be put to death; they have violated nature, their blood will be on their own heads.

12. If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall be put to death; they have committed incest, their blood is upon them.

13. "The man who has intercourse with a man in the same way as with a woman: they have done a hateful thing together; they will be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

13. If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall be put to death, their blood is upon them.

14. "The man who marries a woman and her mother: this is incest. They will be burnt alive, he and they; you will not tolerate incest.

14. If a man takes a wife and her mother also, it is wickedness; they shall be burned with fire, both he and they, that there may be no wickedness among you.

15. "The man who has intercourse with an animal will be put to death; you will kill the animal too.

15. If a man lies with a beast, he shall be put to death; and you shall kill the beast.

16. "The woman who approaches any animal to have intercourse with it: you will kill the woman and the animal. They will be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

16. If a woman approaches any beast and lies with it, you shall kill the woman and the beast; they shall be put to death, their blood is upon them.

17. "The man who marries his father's or his mother's daughter: if they have intercourse together, this is an outrage. They will be executed in public, for the man has had intercourse with his sister; he will bear the consequences of his guilt.

17. "If a man takes his sister, a daughter of his father or a daughter of his mother, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people; he has uncovered his sister's nakedness, he shall bear his iniquity.

18. "The man who has intercourse with a woman during her monthly periods and exposes her nakedness: he has laid bare the source of her blood, and she has exposed the source of her blood, and both of them will be outlawed from their people.

18. If a man lies with a woman having her sickness, and uncovers her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood; both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

19. "You will not have intercourse with your mother's sister or your father's sister. Whoever does so, has had intercourse with a close relation; they will bear the consequences of their guilt.

19. You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister or of your father's sister, for that is to make naked one's near kin; they shall bear their iniquity.

20. "The man who has intercourse with the wife of his paternal uncle has infringed his uncle's sexual prerogative; they will bear the consequences of their guilt and die childless.

20. If a man lies with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness; they shall bear their sin, they shall die childless.

21. "The man who marries his brother's wife: this is pollution; he has infringed his brother's sexual prerogative; they will die childless.

21. If a man takes his brother's wife, it is impurity; he has uncovered his brother's nakedness, they shall be childless.

22. "You will keep all my laws, all my decisions, and put them into practice, so that the country where I am taking you to live will not vomit you out.

22. "You shall therefore keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them; that the land where I am bringing you to dwell may not vomit you out.

23. You will not follow the laws of the nations whom I am driving out before you; they practised all these things, which is why I detested them.

23. And you shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I am casting out before you; for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

24. As I have already told you, you will take possession of their soil, I myself shall give you possession of it, a country flowing with milk and honey. "Since I, Yahweh your God, have set you apart from these peoples,

24. But I have said to you, `You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have separated you from the peoples.

25. you for your part will make a distinction between clean animals and unclean ones and between unclean birds and clean ones, and will not make yourselves detestable with any animal or bird or reptile, which I have set apart from you as unclean.

25. You shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the clean; you shall not make yourselves abominable by beast or by bird or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean.

26. "Be consecrated to me, for I, Yahweh, am holy, and I shall set you apart from all these peoples, for you to be mine.

26. You shall be holy to me; for I the LORD am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.

Fußnoten:

20:1-5 - Die Strafe für den Moloch-Kult, der auch Kinderopfer beinhaltete, ist streng und unterstreicht den Schrecken dieser Praxis. Gott verbietet Götzendienst und extreme Ungerechtigkeit und betont damit seinen Eifer für die Reinheit seines Volkes (siehe auch Jeremia 32:35 und 2. Könige 23:10).

20:6-8 - Die Konsultation von Medien und Spiritisten ist bei Todesstrafe verboten. Gott verlangt von seinem Volk, Führung und Trost bei ihm zu suchen, nicht bei okkulten Praktiken, und betont damit die Heiligkeit seiner Gesetze (siehe auch Deuteronomium 18:10-12 und Jesaja 8:19-20).

20:9-16 - Einige Sünden, wie etwa die Verfluchung der Eltern, Ehebruch und Inzest, werden mit dem Tod bestraft. Dies verdeutlicht die Bedeutung der Familie und der moralischen Heiligkeit, die Gott fordert. Das göttliche Gericht ist eine Reaktion auf die Sünde, die die Schöpfung verdirbt (siehe auch Exodus 21:17 und 1 Korinther 6:9-10).

20:22-24 - Gott ermahnt sein Volk, seine Gesetze zu befolgen, damit das Land sie nicht ausspeit, wie es die heidnischen Völker taten. Diese Passage unterstreicht das Urteil über Ungehorsam und das Privileg, im Bund mit Gott zu leben (siehe auch Levitikus 18:28 und Deuteronomium 28:1-2).

20:26 - Gott ruft sein Volk dazu auf, heilig zu sein und sich von den anderen Völkern abzusondern, denn er hat es zu einem heiligen Volk erwählt. Dieser Ruf zur Heiligkeit durchdringt Israels gesamte Beziehung zu Gott (siehe auch Deuteronomium 7,6 und 1. Petrus 2,9).

Verse im Zusammenhang mit Leviticus, 20:

Levitikus Kapitel 20 legt Strafen für schwere Verstöße gegen Gottes Gesetz fest. Welche Folgen hat Ungehorsam? In diesem harten Text werden die Strafen für Praktiken wie Götzendienst, sexuelle Unmoral und Okkultismus detailliert beschrieben. Das Kapitel betont die Schwere der Sünde und die Bedeutung der gemeinschaftlichen Heiligkeit. Diese Gesetze spiegeln Gottes Gerechtigkeit und seinen Wunsch nach Reinheit unter seinem Volk wider. Betrachten Sie mit uns fünf Bibelstellen, die das Gleichgewicht zwischen göttlicher Gerechtigkeit und Barmherzigkeit bei der heutigen Anwendung dieser Prinzipien beleuchten.

Apostelgeschichte 15:29: "Halten Sie sich von Götzenopfern, Blut, dem Fleisch erdrosselter Tiere und sexueller Unmoral fern. Sie tun gut daran, diese Dinge zu vermeiden. Sich amüsieren." - Diese Entscheidung des Jerusalemer Konzils spiegelt mehrere Verbote aus Levitikus 20 wider.

1. Korinther 6:9-10: "Wussten Sie nicht, dass die Bösen das Reich Gottes nicht erben werden? Lass dich nicht täuschen: Weder Unmoralische noch Götzendiener noch Ehebrecher noch Männer, die mit Menschen lügen, noch Diebe, noch Habgierige, noch Alkoholiker, noch Verleumder, noch Betrüger werden das Reich Gottes erben." - Paulus nennt mehrere Sünden, von denen viele in 3. Mose 20 verboten sind, als Hindernisse für die Ererbung des Reiches Gottes.

Offenbarung 21:8: "Aber die Feiglinge, die Ungläubigen, die Verdorbenen, die Mörder, diejenigen, die sexuelle Unmoral begehen, diejenigen, die Hexerei betreiben, die Götzendiener und alle Lügner – ihr Platz wird im Feuersee sein, der mit Schwefel brennt. Dies ist der zweite Todesfall." - Johannes listet Sünden auf, die vom Reich Gottes ausschließen, von denen viele in Levitikus 20 verurteilt werden.

Römer 1:32: "Obwohl sie Gottes gerechtes Urteil kennen, dass diejenigen, die solche Dinge praktizieren, den Tod verdienen, praktizieren sie sie nicht nur weiterhin, sondern billigen auch diejenigen, die sie praktizieren." - Paulus wiederholt die Todesurteile in Levitikus 20 für bestimmte Sünden.

1. Petrus 2:9: "Aber Sie sind eine auserwählte Generation, eine königliche Priesterschaft, eine heilige Nation, Gottes eigenes Volk, um das Lob dessen zu verkünden, der Sie aus der Dunkelheit in sein wunderbares Licht gerufen hat." - Petrus wendet die Sprache von Levitikus 20:26 an, in der es darum geht, ein heiliges Volk zu sein und von der Kirche abgesondert zu sein.
