Deuteronomium 23:7-8

7 Den Edomiet zult gij voor geen gruwel houden, want hij is uw broeder; den Egyptenaar zult gij voor geen gruwel houden want gij zijt een vreemdeling geweest in zijn land.

8 Aangaande de kinderen, die hun zullen geboren worden in het derde geslacht, elk van die zal in de vergadering des HEEREN komen.
