1 At that time the Book of Moses (drawn out) was read aloud in the hearing of the people, and in it they found the passage stating that no Ammonite or Moabite (from father: what father?) should ever enter the assembly of God 2 because they had not met the Israelites (God prevails) with food and water, but had hired Balaam (not of the people) to call down a curse against them (although our God {Elohenu} had turned the curse into a blessing). 3 As soon as the people heard this law, they excluded from Israel (he wrestles with God) all of foreign descent.
