Literatura ng Ikalawang Templo sa Deuteronomio 21:21: On Drunkenness

וּ֠רְגָמֻהוּ כָּל־אַנְשֵׁ֨י עִיר֤וֹ בָֽאֲבָנִים֙ וָמֵ֔ת וּבִֽעַרְתָּ֥ הָרָ֖ע מִקִּרְבֶּ֑ךָ וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יִשְׁמְע֥וּ וְיִרָֽאוּ׃ (ס)

At babatuhin siya ng lahat ng mga lalaki ng kanyang lungsod hanggang sa siya ay mamatay; at aalisin mo ang kasamaan mula sa iyong gitna, at ang buong Israel ay makaririnig at matatakot.

On Drunkenness

[28] Naturally, therefore, will punishment follow, purging every base tendency out of the mind. For it says, “thou shalt remove the evil one,” not out of a city or a country or a nation but “out of yourselves” (Deut. 21:21). For it is in ourselves that the vicious and culpable thoughts exist and have their lair, thoughts which we must cut away and destroy when their state is incurable.
