It is written, \u201cDo not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, and do not say in the presence of the messenger of God that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry on account of your voice and destroy the work of your hands?\u201d O how should one be careful in this world? This verse was perplexing to the friends, for this is how it should have been written, \u201cDo not let your mouth cause your soul to sin,\u201d as it is written, \u201cAnd if a soul sins,\u201d and we did not find a verse where it is written, \u201cAnd should flesh sin.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>24. However, so is the rule: it is forbidden for a man to speak words of whoredom even with his wife because his organ will harden and he will come to other thoughts and will be threshing in his barn and sowing other wheat\u2014mating with his wife and thinking of other women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>25. \u201cDo not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin\u201d is holy flesh, as it is written, \u201cAnd My covenant shall be in your flesh,\u201d namely the circumcision. And do not say indecent words or words of whoredom before the angel who walks to the right of man. Rather, let all your words be calm and sound, for it is a mistake, for which he must offer the mistake-offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>26. \u201cWhy should God be angry on account of your voice?\u201d It is because the fowl of the sky will lead your voice and place it before the Creator\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>27. \u201cAnd destroy the work of your hands,\u201d meaning of the sin of the flesh. Because every person has a holy covenant, they who govern in Hell cannot let him in here, as long as he keeps the holy covenant. If he does not keep it, the covenant is removed from him and he is destroyed and sabotaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The word is called \u201cthe works of man.\u201d It is written about it, \u201cAnd destroy the work of your hands,\u201d meaning that the holy covenant is removed from him. Afterward he is put in Hell and they have nothing on which to rely. Now, my son, be careful with your friend\u2019s honor more than with your own body. He warned him by that that he should not offend the honor of another as he has hurt his own honor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>23.
