Leviticus 17:8

Leviticus 17:8 f. Extension of the Rule to Resident Aliens. Strangers, often referred to in H (cf. Leviticus 19:34), are men of alien race, frequently broken men from other countries, Jiving more or less permanently in Palestine, and therefore naturally expected to conform to many of its religious practices (cf. Leviticus 17:12), while without the special rights of a Hebrew, and therefore liable to oppression unless specially protected, as by H (Deuteronomy 1:16 *, p. 110).
