The Wilderness a Suitable Place for the Giving of These Laws
Leviticus 18:6-30
None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.…


The wilderness in which they now were was a very fit place for enjoining these laws upon the Israelites, as they were now removed from the snares and temptations of Egypt, and were not yet mingled with the people of Canaan.

(Bp. Kidder.)
