Deuteronomy 22:11

Covenant Order: Neighbor, Creation, and Sexual Holiness

The chapter moves from concrete acts of community care for neighbor and creature (vv. 1–8), through laws protecting created distinctions in the natural order (vv. 9–12), into a sustained legislation of sexual holiness, marital fidelity, and covenant purity (vv. 13–30), grounding neighbor-love and sexual ethics together in the covenant order Israel bears before God.
