Biblioth. Bibl Leviticus 15:2-33 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When any man has a running issue out of his flesh… All this mystically teaches us to beware of courting or choosing the conversation of those that have received any tincture of vice, and not to contract acquaintance with any persons who we have reason to believe are not on good terms with God. There is such a venomous contagion in vice and immorality that familiarity with sinners does, of itself, make a man an associate in their practices: so saith the son of Sirach (Ecclesiasticus 13:1), and thus the apostle commands (1 Timothy 5:22). (Biblioth. Bibl.) Parallel Verses KJV: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When any man hath a running issue out of his flesh, because of his issue he is unclean. |
