DO NOT COMMIT INCEST
DO NOT MARRY YOUR NEAREST RELATIVES, as it is written…
We have seen the “fruits” of incest.
Children born from incest are often mentally retarded and sometimes physically disabled. Many royal families in Europe practiced incest to keep the “money in the familily”. While trying to hord their riches for themselves they produced weaker and weaker lines of kings. The ending result was great mental retardation and an “ugly” appearance.
This is why this law was in place. I believe Yahuah cursed the children of incest to produce an instant Karma so humans don’t commit this offense. This law came into effect after the nation of Israel received the Torah from Yahuah through Moses (Mashah).
Abraham and Sarah were brother and sister and nothing happened to them. This is why I believe Yahuah cursed the children of incest after this law. It is confusion to practice incest and wickedness.
Leviticus ויקרא (u’Ye-QuRA) 18:6-19
[6] None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am יהוה (Yahuah).
6איש איש אל כל שאר בשרו לא תקרבו לגלות ערוה אני יהוה׃
The Pharaoh’s of Egypt also practiced incest to keep the money in the family. The picture above says it all!
