Transgression

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by John of Reading (talk | contribs) at 14:07, 10 December 2017 (Better to remove that line, I think. "Transgression" isn't mentioned in the Philosophy article, and I can't find a suitable target for a blue link.).

Transgression may be:

  • A Biblical transgression is a violation of God's Ten Commandments or other element of God's moral law; sin (1 John 3:4)
  • A legal transgression, a crime usually created by a social or economic boundary
    • In civil law jurisdictions, a transgression or a contravention is a smaller breach of law, similar to summary offence in common law jurisdictions.
  • A social transgression, violating a norm
