Leviticus 18:6-23
“ You must never have sexual relations with a close relative, for I am the Lord.“ Do not violate your father by having sexual relations with your mother. She is your mother; you must not have sexual relations with her.“ Do not have sexual relations with any of your father’s wives, for this would violate your father.“ Do not have sexual relations with your sister or half sister, whether she is your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, whether she was born into your household or someone else’s.“ Do not have sexual relations with your granddaughter, whether she is your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, for this would violate yourself.“ Do not have sexual relations with your stepsister, the daughter of any of your father’s wives, for she is your sister.“ Do not have sexual relations with your father’s sister, for she is your father’s close relative.“ Do not have sexual relations with your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s close relative.“ Do not violate your uncle, your father’s brother, by having sexual relations with his wife, for she is your aunt.“ Do not have sexual relations with your daughter in law; she is your son’s wife, so you must not have sexual relations with her.“ Do not have sexual relations with your brother’s wife, for this would violate your brother.“ Do not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. And do not take her granddaughter, whether her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, and have sexual relations with her. They are close relatives, and this would be a wicked act.“ While your wife is living, do not marry her sister and have sexual relations with her, for they would be rivals.“ Do not have sexual relations with a woman during her period of menstrual impurity.“ Do not defile yourself by having sexual intercourse with your neighbor’s wife.“ Do not permit any of your children to be offered as a sacrifice to Molech, for you must not bring shame on the name of your God. I am the Lord.“ Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin.“ A man must not defile himself by having sex with an animal. And a woman must not offer herself to a male animal to have intercourse with it. This is a perverse act.

Mark 7:10-23
For instance, Moses gave you this law from God:‘ Honor your father and mother,’ and‘ Anyone who speaks disrespectfully of father or mother must be put to death.’But you say it is all right for people to say to their parents,‘ Sorry, I can’t help you. For I have vowed to give to God what I would have given to you.’In this way, you let them disregard their needy parents.And so you cancel the word of God in order to hand down your own tradition. And this is only one example among many others.”Then Jesus called to the crowd to come and hear.“ All of you listen,” he said,“ and try to understand.It’s not what goes into your body that defiles you; you are defiled by what comes from your heart.”
