Vayikra 18:26 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 18:26

Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments
Before observed to them, whether of a ceremonial nature, and enjoined them according to his sovereign will and pleasure; or of a moral nature, and founded in justice and equity, and so worthy of their regard, and obligatory upon them; as well as in their own nature they recommended themselves to their regard, as being the reverse of those loathsome and abominable things before dehorted from: and shall not commit [any] of these abominations;
such as incest, adultery, idolatry, and bestiality, which are in themselves abominable things, execrable to God, and to be detested by men: [neither] any of your own nation;
that belonged to any of their own tribes, or should be born to them in the land of Canaan when they came thither, and were properly natives of it: nor any stranger that sojourneth among you;
any proselyte, and especially a proselyte of righteousness, who conformed to the Jewish religion, and had laid himself under obligation to do everything that was binding upon an Israelite.

Vayikra 18:26 In-Context

24 Make not yourselves tamei in any of these things; for in all these the Goyim which I cast out before you became tamei;
25 And HaAretz became tamei; therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and HaAretz itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
26 Ye shall therefore be shomer over My chukkot and My mishpatim, and shall not commit any of these to’evot; no, neither any of your ezrach, nor any ger that sojourneth among you;
27 (For all these to’evot have the anshei HaAretz done, which were before you, and HaAretz is tamei;)
28 That HaAretz vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the Goyim that were before you.
