the LORD.
  • That ye profane not my holy name, and that I be sanctified among the children of Israel: for I am the LORD that sanctifieth you,
  • Who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, that I might be your God, I the LORD.
    (Leviticus)
    Chapter 23.
    Order of the noblest festivals.
  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: These are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall call holy, and my feasts, when ye come together.
  • Six days shalt thou labour: but the seventh day is the great holy sabbath, when ye come together. No work shall ye do within: for it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
  • Now these are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall call holy feasts, when ye come together: 5. On the fourteenth day of the first month between evenings is the LORD’S passover.
  • And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD: there ye shall eat bread unleavened seven days.
  • The first day shall be called holy among you, when ye come together: ye shall do no service there.
  • And offer unto the LORD seven days. The seventh day also shall be called holy, when ye
    come together; neither shall ye do any service there.
  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye come into the land which I will give you, and ye shall reap it, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest.
  • And the sheaf shall be woven before the LORD, that it may be acceptable unto you: and the priest shall do it on the morrow after the sabbath.
  • And ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the LORD in the day that your sheaf is woven, of a lamb that is without change, and of the first year,
  • And the meat offering, two tithes of fine flour mingled with oil, for an offering made to the LORD of a sweet savour; and the drink offering, a fourth part of an hin of wine.
  • And ye shall eat no new bread, nor sing, nor eat corn before, until the day that ye offer sacrifice unto your God. This shall be a statute unto your seed in all your dwellings.
  • And afterward ye shall count from the second day of the sabbath, when ye brought the sheaf, seven whole sabbaths;
  • Until the second day of the seventh sabbath, even fifty days, ye shall number them, and offer new meat offerings unto the LORD.
  • And ye shall offer out of all your dwellings two loaves of two tithes of fine flour, leavened and baked, for the firstfruits unto the LORD.
  • And ye shall bring beside your bread seven lambs of the first year without change, and a young bullock, and two rams. This shall be the LORD’S burnt offering, and his meat offering, and his drink offering: it is an offering of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
  • And ye shall offer one kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two lambs of the first year for a peace offering.
  • And the priest shall wave it, and the bread of the firstfruits, before the LORD, and the two lambs: and it shall be holy unto the LORD, and of the priest.
  • And ye shall proclaim this day, for it shall be called holy among you, when ye come together; ye shall do no service. A perpetual statute shall it be among your seed in all your dwellings.
  • But when ye reap your land, ye shall not cut it even in the field, neither shall ye gather it all up accurately, but ye shall leave it for the poor and for strangers. I am the LORD your God.
  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the first day of the seventh month ye shall keep the holy sabbath of blowing in remembrance, when ye come together.
  • Then ye shall do no service, and ye shall sacrifice unto the LORD.
  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • The tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement. And it shall be called holy unto you, that ye come together, and mortify your bodies, and offer them unto the LORD.
  • And ye shall do no work in this day: for it is the day of atonement, that ye may be reconciled before the LORD your God.
  • For whosoever shall not mortify his body in that day shall be cut off from among his people.
  • And whosoever shall do any work this day, him will I destroy from among his people.
  • Therefore ye shall do no work. This shall be a perpetual statute unto your seed in all your dwellings.
  • It is your great sabbath, that ye should mortify your bodies. On the ninth day of the month, at evening, you shall keep this Sabbath from evening until evening again.
  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the feast of tabernacles seven days unto the LORD.
  • The first day shall be called holy, that ye come together: ye shall do no work of service.
  • Seven days ye shall sacrifice unto the LORD. The eighth day also shall be called holy, that ye should come together, and offer your sacrifice unto the LORD: for it is the day of meeting: ye shall do no work of service.
  • These are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall keep holy, to come together, and to offer sacrifices unto the LORD, burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, and other sacrifices, every one according to his day,
  • Without which the sabbath of the LORD, and your gifts, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, which ye give unto the LORD.
  • Now therefore on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have brought in the revenue of the land, ye shall keep the feast of the LORD seven days. On the first day it is the sabbath, and on the eighth day it is also the sabbath.
  • And ye shall take fruit of goodly trees the first day, and branches of palm trees, and may of thick trees, and pastures of brooks; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.
  • And ye shall keep the feast of the year unto the LORD seven days. This shall be a perpetual statute unto your seed, that they may keep the feast in the seventh month.
  • Seven days ye shall dwell in tabernacles: he that is a native of Israel shall dwell in tabernacles,
  • That your seed may know how I made the children of Israel dwell in tents, when I brought them up out of the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.
  • And Moses told the children of Israel such feasts of the LORD.

  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee all the oil of the trees cast for lights, and that it be put into the lamps above every day,
  • Without the vail of the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation. And Aaron shall prepare it before the LORD evening and morning daily. And this shall be a statute for ever unto your seed.
  • And he shall set the lamps upon the fine candlestick before the LORD daily.
  • And thou shalt take breadcrumbs, and bake twelve cakes thereof; two tithes shall be in one cake.
  • And thou shalt lay them six by six upon a bed upon a fine table before the LORD.
  • And thou shalt put upon them pure incense, that they may be for a memorial bread made by fire unto the LORD.
  • All the sabbaths for and for shall he prepare them before the LORD, of the children of Israel, for an everlasting covenant.
  • And it shall be Aaron’s, and his sons’, that they shall eat of them in the holy place: for this is his holy of holies of the offerings of the LORD for an everlasting statute.
  • And there went out of the children of Israel the son of an Israelitish woman, the son of an Egyptian man, and quarreled with an Israelitish man in the camp.
  • And blasphemed the name, and cursed. Then they brought him unto Moses, (but his mother’s name was Selomith, a daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan,)
  • And put him in prison, until they had a clear answer at the mouth of the LORD.
  • And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying:
  • Bring out the curser from before the camp, and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
  • And say unto the children of Israel, Whosoever curseth his God, let him bear his sin.
  • Whosoever blasphemeth the name of the LORD shall surely be put to death: all the congregation shall stone him. As the stranger, so shall the native be: if he blaspheme the name, he shall die.
  • Whosoever slayeth any man shall surely be put to death.
  • And whosoever killeth any beast, he shall pay for it body for body.
  • And whosoever shall hurt his neighbour, it shall be done to him according to all that he hath done:
  • A pity for a pity, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth: as he hath hurt a man, so shall it be done unto him again.
  • So that whosoever slayeth cattle shall pay for it: but whosoever slayeth a man shall die.
  • There shall be judgment one among you, both for the stranger and for the native: for I am the LORD your God.
