Deuteronomy 23:1-8 - Exclusion And Inclusion
1 He who is wounded, crushed, or who has his male member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of Jehovah. 2 A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Jehovah. Even to his tenth generation he shall not enter into the congregation of Jehovah. 3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of Jehovah. Even to their tenth generation they shall not enter into the congregation of Jehovah forever, 4 because they did not meet you with bread and with water in the way when you came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor, of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you. 5 But Jehovah your God would not listen to Balaam, but Jehovah your God turned the curse to a blessing to you, because Jehovah your God loved you. 6 You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever. 7 You shall not despise an Edomite, for he is your brother. You shall not despise an Egyptian, because you were a stranger in his land. 8 The sons that are born to them shall enter into the congregation of Jehovah in their third generation.
