God's Law to the nation of Israel included this command concerning the people of the nations around them: "You must form no marriage alliance with them. Your daughter you must not give to his son, and his daughter you must not take for your son." (Deuteronomy 7:3, 4)
This law included the Moabites, who although related to the Israelites( through Lot) and spoke a similar language, manifested great emnity to the Israelites, and worshipped false gods.

In Deuteronomy 23:3-6, the Israelites were prohibited from marrying Moabites due to historical conflicts and idolatry issues. However, in the book of Ruth, a Moabite woman becomes an ancestor of King David, so attitudes towards intermarriage evolved over time.
The Philistines were idolaters, as were the Ammonites, Moabites, Ishmaelites, Canaanites, Edumeans, Egyptians, and so on. The exception was the Israelites, who believed in One ethical God.

Moab, Israel and Judah were three of the small independent West Semitic states to arise around the same time, following the decline of the Canaanite city-states. It may seem surprising that the Israelites and Judahites are now understood by scholars to have been West Semitic (Canaanite) people like the Moabites, but the Moabites never came to be regarded as Jewish. The Bible talks of a common bond between the people of the northern Hebrew kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah, but this bond is not evident with the Moabites.

Sexual intercourse between two men is forbidden in Leviticus 18:22. Tradition states that this law applies not only to the Israelites.
This phrase refers to a specific ban mentioned in the Bible where Moabites or their descendants are not allowed to enter the assembly of the Lord. It was a historical restriction imposed due to the way the Moabites treated the Israelites when they were escaping Egypt. It was a form of punishment and a reminder of the consequences of their actions during that time.
NO, it is immorally innerly Forbidden especially 1st cousin.
Ethnically, there was no difference. In spite of biblical tradition to the contrary, it is now recognised that the Hebrews were West Semitic people, just like their neighbours, including the Moabites. Biblical and archaeological evidence also suggests that they worshipped the same gods, at least until monotheism was imposed in the state of Judah during the seventh century BCE.
