Love your neighbor as yourself.

Leviticus 19:15-37
Rebuke your neighbor frankly(坦率地說) so you will not share in their guilt.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
Do not eat any meat with the blood still in it.
Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves.
When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them.
God wants to see honestly, fair dealing, impartial justice: God cares if wage are delays.
He calls his people to respect life and reputation.
God is also concerned for the natural world, how we care for his creation.
Patience while a tree is immature means better long-term yield.
V26b-31 These are all heaven practices.
Why?
Aggressive to do something is needed, not only do not do some laws.
Respect life and reputation and love your neighbor as yourself is the principle of those decrees of the Lord.
How?
Love your neighbor as yourself.
