AB - Leviticus 19 is a theological essence of the Old Testament. It has very unique rhetorical particularities in developing its theology by using stereotyped expressions. I tried to examine its traditio-theological interconnectedness with other legal corpora of the Old Testament by analysing 5 stereotyped expressions(“I am Yahweh”, “Your should be holy as I am holy”, “Keep my Sabbaths”, “Fear your God”, “Love your neighbour as yourself”).
It shows that the compiler of Lev 19 emphasized his theological views by using such stereotyped expressions. I could observe theses expressions were the result of inheriting and developing further the other Old Testament legal corpora such as Covenant Law, Deuteronomic Law, Ten Commandments etc. Particularly, the expressions like “I am Yahweh”, “You should be holy as I am holy”, “Love your neighbour as yourself” are those which were cited as stereotyped expressions in the New Testament. These expressions should be regarded as the theological foundation for the universal love for all mankind proclaimed by Jesus Christ. The compiler of Lev 19 gives us the clear answer for such fundamental questions as who God is and how we should live, on the basis of such rhetorical devices(esp. stereotypical expressions and parallelism). The text also provides us with a meaningful direction of Christian living in multi-cultural societies.
