OUR RELATIONSHIP TO OTHERS

Text: Leviticus 19
  I. In the first 2 verses of Leviticus 19, Jehovah tells 
     Moses to speak to the children of Israel.
     A. He is to tell them to be holy.
     B. Why? “For I Jehovah your God is holy.”
 II. Jehovah goes on to point out the ways in which the 
     children of Israel were to be holy.
III. For our lesson this morning, I would like to go 
     through this chapter and notice the verses that deal 
     with our relationships with others.

         1. God has never approved of this, and when a
