If Ex. 22 is significant...

...than maybe "Moses armed the evil priest" with th moral arsenal to bring harm upon Bree. As someone pointed out, Ex. 22 contains the lines "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." and " Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death". Bree is certainly the former, and if "a beast" in this case is "the beast', and if she has genuinely broken a "purity vow", perhaps she is guilty of the latter.
Perhaps "Moses" or "the evil priest" is not Bree's Dad or other members of her religion, (and perhaps my somewhat tongue-in-cheek suggestion that Cassie was proposing an anti-Semitic conspriacy theory was just as much of a desperate stretch as those other suggestions) but Cassie. She quotes the Bible, she thinks Bree's ceremony is a virgin sacrifice, (either it isn't, or the creators have done little research or are being fatuous or both) maybe Cassie is a radical Christian. It could explain her and Bree's falling out. Maybe she was a member of Bree's "cult" and was "deprogrammed". (The scarequotes indicate my cynical bias towards that perspective) Now she's out to punish Bree or save her or both.
