More explanation about New Covenant Literal Application

The New Covenant Literal Application Code (NCLA) is an interpretive guide used by the authors to indicate which person categories a mitzvah applies to, and at what level of literal compliance.

It combines person categories such as Jewish, K'rov Yisrael, and Gentile, together with male/female distinctions and an application level such as mandated, recommended, optional, or prohibited.

This code reflects the authors' interpretive opinion and is provided for prayerful consideration. On this page, the technical code is summarized into plain language to help new readers understand it more easily.

Commentary

Rabbi Michael Rudolph

Mitzvah #BA11 lists Scriptures that command us to honor God, but the Bible also contains Scriptures forbidding us to dishonor God. Since obeying God is the the principal way we honor him, the principal ways of dishonoring God are to disobey him, teach others to disobey, or to disrespect him in any other way
