Biblical Law and NT explanation: Clothing and Firstborn

(Christians may do these things in a "spiritual" sense and changing the approach to dealing with justice, but reality is that these laws are for the land of Israel and the times before Christ explained proper Justice and Mercy.)  CHRISTIAN DO meditate on these verses, OLD and NEW.  Gain better ground at the righteousness in Judgement of the Lord.

Clothing

  1. That a man shall not wear women's clothing (Deut. 22:5) (CCN179).
  2. That a woman should not wear men's clothing (Deut. 22:5) (CCN178).
  3. Not to wear garments made of wool and linen mixed together (Deut. 22:11) (CCN181).

The Firstborn

  1. To redeem the firstborn human male (Ex. 13:13; Ex. 34:20; Num. 18:15) (CCA54). See Pidyon Ha-Ben: Redemption of the Firstborn.
  2. To redeem the firstling of an ass (Ex. 13:13; Ex. 34:20) (CCA55).
  3. To break the neck of the firstling of an ass if it is not redeemed (Ex. 13:13; Ex. 34:20) (CCA56).
  4. Not to redeem the firstling of a clean beast (Num. 18:17) (CCN109).

But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem; they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet savour unto the LORD. (Num 18:17)
