If these laws are nailed to the cross, then incest is no longer a sin!
Can any of you name two verses in the Apostolic writings which refer to any of these laws against incest?

[YahsNiviim]

There were giants in the earth in those days.

N@phiyl (nef-eel'); Noun Masculine, Strong #: 5303


giants, the Nephilim

This tends to sound like more than kings or normal men.

[Anna]

If you referring to the Book of Enoch from where the teaching of Angels cohabiting with men is derived, you will find it describing these nephilim as 450 feet tall! Obviously this is one of the Jewish fables we are told not to pay any attention to.

Let's save or take this discussion to another venue....

Regarding the prohibition of Beastiality, Commandment # 105 -

This web site was a shocker to me:

[Eccl. 12:13]

How do you get, 'Not to castrate the male of any species...' from the following scripture you presented?

Lev.22:24
[24] Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make any offering thereof in your land.

From the 18th thru the 25th verses the ONLY topic spoken of is that of 'freewill offerings' to the Lord. Granted the verses do say not to sacrifice any animal with any type of blimish, but since animal sacrifices are no longer needed, why would this even be included in laws that are still to be kept today? Not that I plan or even know when such an act would be done, but NOWHERE does it say to NEVER castrate the male of any species.

[Anna]

You asked a good question, Brother Eccl. 12:13.

I asked a friend of mine who is a Black Rabbi in the Reformed branch of Judiasm and he shared with me that this commandment only applied during temple times, that animals were not to be castrated.

This list of the 613 commandments is obviously created by and based on Jewish interpretation.
This interpretaiton of commandment # 106 is clearly an expansion or "fence" around the commandment expanding it further than it's original intent.

We are only obilgated to adhere to "whatever proceeds from the mouth of YHWH" not adding to nor taking away. Therefore we can ignore the superfluous additions by the Rabbis.

What do you mean - No SKIPPING - which may lead to incest. Surely you jest. Surely.
