Hygiene Bible Quotes

I cannot protect my children from my weaknesses. As hard as I may try, at some point my sin will affect their lives. However, the way I deal with my failure can provide an example for them to follow. I am a sinner raising sinners. Each of my children will face the weight and sorrow of his or her own sins. Just as we teach daily hygiene habits like brushing teeth, our children need instruction on how to find cleansing for their souls. By teaching our children about confession and repentance as well as grace and forgiveness, we bless their lives for years to come.

Highlight – Leviticus 15:2 Rules About Sex Some of the rules regarding sex and bodily discharges mystify modern readers, but the Israelites took for granted that God had dominion over even the most private aspects of their lives. The Bible does not provide a detailed rationale for these regulations. Some relate to health and hygiene: Following the rules would help the Israelites avoid the venereal diseases that plagued their neighbors. Also, pagan religions commonly employed temple prostitutes, and God clearly intended for the Israelites to keep worship and sex separate.
