Vayikra 20:22 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 20:22

Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes
All the ordinances, institutions, and appointments of God, whether observed in this chapter or elsewhere, but particularly those concerning incestuous marriages and unlawful copulations: and all my judgments, and do them;
all the laws and commandments of God, founded injustice and judgment, and according to the rules thereof; or else, as Aben Ezra, the judgments of punishment, or the penalties annexed to the above laws, which were carefully to be observed, and put into execution, to deter from the transgression of them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spew you not out;
as the stomach does its food when it is loathsome and nauseous to it, and it cannot bear it; see ( Leviticus 18:25 Leviticus 18:28 ) .

Vayikra 20:22 In-Context

20 And if an ish shall lie with the wife of his dod, he hath uncovered his uncle’s nakedness; they shall bear their chet; they shall die childless.
21 And if an ish shall take his brother’s wife, it is niddah; he hath uncovered his brother’s nakedness; they shall be childless.
22 Ye shall therefore be shomer over all My chukkot, and all My mishpatim, and do them; that HaAretz, whither I bring you to dwell therein, vomit you not out.
23 And ye shall not walk in the chukkot of HaGoy, which I cast out before you; for they committed all these things; therefore I abhorred them.
24 But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to inherit it, an Eretz zavat cholov udevash: I am Hashem Eloheichem, which have separated you from the peoples.
