Does the bible ever mention zoning laws?
In the bible it is said that God is very orderly being. However I've never hear about any comments from God that suggest zoning. How can you be orderly with out zoning laws?
Pretty good answers so far, but no actual quotes from the bible.
Keep in mind that zoneing laws and country boundaries are two different things. Zoning laws refer to were certain buildings are allow to be constructed.

Yeah, people often wonder why God sabatoged the Tower of Babel project. The problem was that tower was too high for local zoning regulations and it was blocking God's view. The men didn't bother to get a building permit and they suffered the consequences.

"Remove not the ancient landmarks..."
so what's your point.....you plan on setting up a business in a residential district of Jerusalem?
By the way,
God gave the land of Isreal to the Jews thousands of years before Christ....and He marked out the boundaries for them.
