The "Laws of the Brethren" refers to a set of guidelines and principles that govern the conduct and organization of the Brethren, a Christian religious group known for its emphasis on community and simplicity. These laws focus on mutual support, ethical behavior, and the importance of living a life that reflects their faith. The laws promote values such as honesty, humility, and service to others. They encourage members to engage in communal activities and to maintain a lifestyle that avoids excess and materialism, aligning with the group's belief in living out the teachings of Jesus Christ.
