The Scriptures call us to holiness and faithfulness. In this study of the Torah passage כִּי־תֵצֵא Ki Tetze (“when you go forth,” Deut. 21:10-25:19) focusing on a parallel passage in 1st Corinthians 5, we will see that tolerating unrepentant sin weakens the witness of the community of believers. Confronting sin with grace is an act of love — for the individual and the congregation. As we strive to walk uprightly, may we have the courage to uphold righteousness and the humility to receive correction. Only then can we fulfill our purpose to be a holy people.
