Ethics are what you should do , and shouldn't do. The ethics comes from repentance.

the ethics taught the people in Waknuk that Tribulation was sent by God because of the 'irreligious arrogance' behaviour of the old people. Because of this, God sent tribulation. Now the waknuk people believed that if they seek for forgiveness from God ,He would return them the restoration of the Golden age. This is also the reason why the Waknuk's community is know for its purity.
