God told his ancient dedicated people, Israel, to keep separate from the nations around them and be unsullied by the practices of those nations. He gave his people laws to help them do this.
در دوران باستان ،‏ خدا به قوم وقف‌شدهٔ خود ،‏ اسرائیل ،‏ گفت که خود را از ملل اطرافشان مجزا و جدا نگاه دارند و آلوده به اعمال ایشان نشوند .‏
