   1 Samuel 21:6 ESV   
   And David answered the priest, “Truly women have been kept from us as    
   always when I go on an expedition. The vessels of the young men are holy    
   even when it is an ordinary journey. How much more today will their vessels be   
   holy?”   
      
   * * *   
      
   As we know that men have urges and needs, and drafting is sometimes   
   done in haste, and young men immediately sent from their bedrooms   
   and their wives, girlfriends, mistresses or prostitutes to the front lines   
   in mass waves ... It is interesting that king David of the Biblical kingdom   
   of Israel had this requirement when setting on a military campaign:   
   that men be abstinent from touching women.   
      
   Russian translation is similar:   
   И отвечал Давид священнику и сказал ему:   
   женщин при нас не было    
   ни вчера, ни третьего дня, со времени, как я   
   вышел, и сосуды отроков    
   чисты, а если дорога нечиста, то [хлеб]   
   останется чистым в сосудах.   
   (1 Samuel 21:6).   
      
   This especially emphasises not approaching a woman in her montly   
   "flow" of blood (uncleanness).   
      
   Leviticus 15:19   
   And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she shall    
   be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean until    
   the even.   
      
   Russian:   
   Если женщина имеет истечение крови,   
   текущей из тела ее, то она    
   должна сидеть семь дней во время очищения   
   своего, и всякий, кто    
   прикоснется к ней, нечист будет до вечера;   
      
   Normally, the apostles required only four things from Gentiles who   
   accepted faith:   
      
   Acts 15:20   
   But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and    
   from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.   
      
   This doesn't put Christians under the Law of Moses and all the ritual   
   ceremonies which are impractical today without Temple or animal   
   sacrifice (and our sufficient sacrifice is the Lamb of God).   
   But I am certain about the monthly female uncleanness and I suspect   
   that eating or drinking blood is also forbidden to Christians too   
   (whether fresh or in sausages).   
      
   Leviticus 19:26   
   "Do not eat meat that has not been drained of its blood. "Do not practice    
   fortune-telling or witchcraft."   
      
   Leviticus 17   
   12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat   
   blood,    
   neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood. 13 And    
   whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, OR OF THE STRANGERS    
   that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that    
   may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with    
   dust.   
   14 For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof:   
   therefore I    
   said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of   
   flesh:    
   for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be   
   cut    
   off.   
      
   The STRANGERS that were forbidden from eating anything with blood   
   were Gentiles.   
      
   If you have eaten i.e. pork blood sausages, or anything with animal   
   blood, or have had been intimate with a woman, girl, mistress or   
   a prostitute in her monthly flow of unclean blood, you might have   
   experienced that it is not right.   
      
   But you do not have to go to Hell, you can ask forgiveness, as   
   the High Priest atones for the sins done in ignorance (Hebrews 9:7)   
   and not willful. And our High Priest is Lord Jesus Christ.   
      
   You might say, "Yes, but we are in the New Testament!"   
   OK, then go and sing to the lions! If you do not want to turn   
   the other cheek until the jaws snap, then if you render the Old   
   Testament "eye for an eye" justice, then you should be   
   aware of the need to avoid idols and witchcraft, strangled and   
   what the beast had slain, fornication and defiling yourself with blood   
   (eating or in intimate relationship).   
      
   There were talks of the soldiers who went to fight for freedoms,   
   but local prostitutes did not give them any discount on behalf of   
   that and they "remained with them" until they either repented,   
   or they died, maybe even to the Judgment Day, God only knows.   
      
   War is evil, sending unprivileged boys who did not have the money   
   to go to Switzerland where the children of oligarchs at war have   
   luxury parties together with plenty of expensive caviar, food and drinks,   
   prostitutes and all kinds of drugs and stimulants.   
      
   But we can look only to minimise the damage that is already done.   
      
   A fratricidal war is not a just war, but it is not profitable to stay   
   with the last girlfriend or wife who will quickly remarry (thereof   
   the term "black widow", for no one "returns" from an affair with her.   
      
   Ecclesiastes 7:26   
   And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and    
   nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her;    
   but the sinner shall be taken by her.   
      
   in the name of the LORD God Merciful, Almighty   
   Amen
