Love Your Neighbor: Only Israelites or Everyone?

Love Your Neighbor: Only Israelites or Everyone? 2015-01-08T12:01:59-04:00

Richard Elliott Friedman

I tell my students that if you’re on a desert island and can have only one chapter of the Bible with you, make it Leviticus 19. And its laws all come mixed in between each other. No line can be judged by what comes before it or after it. And, remember, there are no verse numbers or periods or commas in the original.
