I. Offerings
The Burnt Offering 1:1-17
If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, 
--let him offer a male without blemish
--he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD.
--And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; 
--and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:
1:3,4,7

The Grain Offering 2:1-16
And when any will offer a meat offering unto the LORD, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon: 
And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests: and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; 
--and the priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar, to be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto the LORD: And the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire. 
--And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
2:1-3,13

The Peace Offering 3:1-17
And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering, if he offer it of the herd; whether it be a male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD. 
--And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: 
--and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about. And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire unto the LORD; 
--And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away. 
--And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the burnt sacrifice, which is upon the wood that is on the fire:
3:1-5

The Sin Offering 4:1-5:13
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them: then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the LORD for a sin offering. -
--And he shall bring the bullock unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD; and shall lay his hand upon the bullock's head, and kill the bullock before the LORD. 
--And the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle of the blood 
*seven times before the LORD, 
*before the vail of the sanctuary.
And if any one of the common people sin through ignorance, while he doeth somewhat against any of the commandments of the LORD concerning things which ought not to be done, and be guilty; 
Or if his sin, which he hath sinned, come to his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath sinned. 
And the priest shall take of the blood thereof with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the bottom of the altar.
And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he hath seen or known of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
Or if he touch the uncleanness of man, whatsoever uncleanness it be that a man shall be defiled withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth of it, then he shall be guilty.
Or suppose you make a foolish vow of any kind, whether its purpose is for good or for bad. When you realize its foolishness, you must admit your guilt. And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these...

4:2-4,6,27-29/5:1,3,5,13

The Trespass Offering 5:17-6:1-7
If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering: 
And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist it not, and it shall be forgiven him. 
It is a trespass offering: he hath certainly trespassed against the LORD. 
If a person sins and commits a trespass against the LORD by 
--lying to his neighbor about what was delivered to him for safekeeping, 
--or about a pledge, 
--or about a robbery, 
--or if he has extorted from his neighbor, 
--or if he has found what was lost and lies concerning it, and swears falsely—in any one of these things that a man may do in which he sins: or all that about which he has sworn falsely. 
*He shall restore its full value, 
*add one-fifth more to it, 
*and give it to whomever it belongs, 
*on the day of his trespass offering.
5:15-19/6:2-5

                II. Handling of the Offerings
The Burnt Offering 6:8-13
Command Aaron and his sons, saying, 
--This is the law of the burnt offering:--
It is the burnt offering, 
--because of the burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be burning in it.
-- And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen breeches shall he put upon his flesh, and take up the ashes which the fire hath consumed with the burnt offering on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar. 
--And he shall put off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp unto a clean place. And the fire upon the altar shall be burning in it; it shall not be put out: and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning...
The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar
it shall never go out.
6:9-13

The Grain Offering 6:14-23
And this is the law of the meat offering: 
And he shall take of it his handful, of the flour of the meat offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which is upon the meat offering, and shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savor, even the memorial of it, unto the LORD. 
--And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat: with unleavened bread shall it be eaten in the holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they shall eat it.
6:14-16

The Sin Offering 6:24-30
This is the law of the sin offering: 
In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the LORD: it is most holy. The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.
But the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be broken: and if it be sodden in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured, and rinsed in water. 
--And no sin offering, whereof any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the fire.
6:24,26,28,30

The Trespass Offering 7:1-10
Likewise this is the law of the trespass offering: 
In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle round about upon the altar. 
--And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul that is above the liver, with the kidneys, it shall he take away: 
--And every meat offering, mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.
7:1,2,4,10

The Peace Offering 7:11-38
And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings...
If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour, fried.
--And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.
--But if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be eaten: 
--But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.
And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
And the right shoulder shall ye give unto the priest for an heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
*This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister unto the LORD in the priest's office;

7:11,12,15-17,31,32,35

III. Aaronic Priesthood
Consecration of Priesthood 8:1-36
Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and a bullock for the sin offering, and two rams, and a basket of unleavened bread
--And gather thou all the congregation together unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
--And he put the breastplate upon him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim. 
--And he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, did he put the golden plate, the holy crown; as the LORD commanded Moses.
--And he poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.
*And he brought the bullock for the sin offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the bullock for the sin offering. And he slew it; and Moses took the blood, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about with his finger, and purified the altar...
*And he brought the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands upon the head of the ram. And he slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it, and put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot. And he brought Aaron's sons, and Moses put of the blood upon the tip of their right ear, and upon the thumbs of their right hands, and upon the great toes of their right feet: and Moses sprinkled the blood upon the altar round about.
*On top of these he placed a thin cake of bread made without yeast, a cake of bread mixed with olive oil, and a wafer spread with olive oil. And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the LORD.
*And Moses took of the anointing oil, and of the blood which was upon the altar, and sprinkled it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon his sons' garments with him; and sanctified Aaron, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
*And ye shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation in seven days, until the days of your consecration be at an end: for seven days shall he consecrate you.

8:2,3,8,9,12,14,15,22-24,26,27,30,33

First Ministry of Aaron 9:1-24
And it came to pass on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, and the elders of Israel; 
And he said unto Aaron, Take thee a young calf for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.
And unto the children of Israel thou shalt speak, saying, Take ye a kid of the goats for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering;
Also a bullock and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD; and a meat offering mingled with oil: for to day the LORD will appear unto you.
*And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.... and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people. 
And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: 
*which when all the people saw, 
--they shouted,
--and fell on their faces.
8:1-4,22-24

Sin of Nadab and Abihu 10:1-20
And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron,
--took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which He commanded them not. 
--And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.
*Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, 
I will be sanctified in them that come nigh Me, 
and before all the people I will be glorified. 
And Aaron held his peace.
Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, 
--Do not show grief by leaving your hair uncombed or by tearing your clothes. If you do, you will die, and the LORD’s anger will strike the whole community of Israel. 
-*-However, the rest of the Israelites, your relatives, may mourn because of the LORD’s fiery destruction of Nadab and Abihu.
--Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations: 
And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy
and between unclean and clean
And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses.
10:1-3,6,9-11

IV. Clean & Unclean 
Foods 11:1-47
Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
And the swine
though he divide the hoof, 
and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; 
he is unclean to you.
For I am the LORD your God:
 ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, 
and ye shall be holy; 
for I am holy: 
neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth: 
*To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, 
--and between the beast that may be eaten 
--and the beast that may not be eaten.
11:3,4,7,44,46,47

Childbirth 12:1-8
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, 
*If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.
*But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days.

12:2-5

Skin Diseases 13:1-46
When a man shall have in the skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, or bright spot, and it be in the skin of his flesh like the plague of leprosy; then he shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, or unto one of his sons the priests:
And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean. If the bright spot be white in the skin of his flesh, and in sight be not deeper than the skin, and the hair thereof be not turned white; then the priest shall shut up him that hath the plague seven days: And the priest shall look on him the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague in his sight be at a stay, and the plague spread not in the skin; then the priest shall shut him up seven days more: And the priest shall look on him again the seventh day: and, behold, if the plague be somewhat dark, and the plague spread not in the skin, the priest shall pronounce him clean: it is but a scab: and he shall wash his clothes, and be clean.
But if the scab spread much abroad in the skin, after that he hath been seen of the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen of the priest again: And if the priest see that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean: it is a leprosy. 
And the leper in whom the plague is, 
--his clothes shall be rent, 
--and his head bare, 
--and he shall put a covering upon his upper lip, 
--and shall cry, Unclean, unclean.
 All the days wherein the plague shall be in him he shall be defiled; he is unclean: he shall dwell alone; without the camp shall his habitation be.
13:2-8,45,46

Mildew 13:47-59
Also, if a garment has a leprous plague in it, whether it is a woolen garment or a linen garment, If the contaminated area in the clothing, the animal hide, the fabric, or the leather article has turned greenish or reddish, it is contaminated with mildew and must be shown to the priest. 
--And if it appear still in the garment, either in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it is a spreading plague: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague is with fire. 
--And the garment, either warp, or woof, or whatsoever thing of skin it be, which thou shalt wash, if the plague be departed from them, then it shall be washed the second time, and shall be clean. These are the regulations concerning defiling molds in woolen or linen clothing, woven or knitted material, or any leather article, for pronouncing them clean or unclean.
13:47,48,57-59

Cleansing from Skin Diseases 14:1-32
This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought unto the priest: 
And the priest shall go forth out of the camp; and the priest shall look, and, behold, if the plague of leprosy be healed in the leper; Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed 
--two birds alive and clean, 
--and cedar wood,
--and scarlet
--and hyssop
And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water: 
As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water: 
And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, 
*and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.
14:2-7

Cleansing from Mildew 14:33-57
When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy in a house of the land of your possession; And he that owneth the house shall come and tell the priest, saying, It seemeth to me there is as it were a plague in the house: Then the priest shall command that they empty the house, before the priest go into it to see the plague, that all that is in the house be not made unclean: and afterward the priest shall go in to see the house:
Then the priest will go in and examine the mildew on the walls. If he finds greenish or reddish streaks and the contamination appears to go deeper than the wall’s surface,
Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days: And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of the house; 
--Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into an unclean place without the city: 
--And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city into an unclean place: 
--And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other morter, and shall plaister the house. 
*And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop: And he shall kill the one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water: And he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven times: But he shall let go the living bird out of the city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house: and it shall be clean.
14:34-40,48-51,53

Discharges That Cause Uncleanness 15:1-33
Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: 
*When any man has a discharge from his body, his discharge is unclean. So if you touch the man’s bed, you must wash your clothes and bathe yourself in water, and you will remain unclean until evening.
*When a woman has her regular flow of blood, the impurity of her monthly period will last seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean till evening.

15:2,5.9

V. Day of Atonement
Day of Atonement 16:-17:9
Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the
mercy seat.
Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering. 
He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.
And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.
And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
--And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
--And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD'S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
--But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
--And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the LORD, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail: And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is upon the testimony, that he die not: 
--And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
--Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat
--And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins:
--And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel. And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the LORD, and make an atonement for it; And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
--And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place,....he shall bring the live goat: 
-*-And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, 
-*-and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, 
-*-and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited:
--And Aaron shall come into the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall put off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the holy place, and shall leave them there:
And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
To the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field, even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer them for peace offerings unto the LORD.
And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring.
16:2-10,12-30/17:5,7

The Life is in the Blood 17:10-16
And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, 
*which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, 
Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh:
17:13,14

VI. Holy Living
Unlawful Sexual Relations 18:1-30
After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do:
*
None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness:
*
Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbor's wife, to defile thyself with her.
*
And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
*
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind
it is abomination.
*Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
*
For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
18:3,6,20-23,29

Holiness 19:1-37
Ye shall be holy: 
for I the LORD your God am holy.
--Each of you must respect your mother and father
--and you must observe My Sabbaths
I am the LORD your God.
--Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: 
I am the LORD your God.
--But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: 
I am the LORD your God.
19:2-4,34

Disobedience 20:1-27
Give the people of Israel these instructions, 
*which apply both to native Israelites 
*and to the foreigners living in Israel.
--If any of them offer their children as a sacrifice to Molech, they must be put to death.
--I will also turn against those who commit spiritual prostitution by putting their trust in 
mediums or in those who consult the spirits of the dead. I will cut them off from the community.
--And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
--If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. 
They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
--Men and women among you who act as mediums or who consult the spirits of the dead must be put to death by stoning. 
They are guilty of a capital offense.
20:2,6,10,13,27

Requirements for Priests 21:1-22:33
Give the following instructions to the priests, the descendants of Aaron.
--A priest must not make himself ceremonially unclean by touching the dead body of a relative.
--They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
--They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and the bread of their God, they do offer: therefore they shall be holy.
--And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
--Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make any offering thereof in your land.
--Neither from a stranger's hand shall ye offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption is in them, and blemishes be in them: they shall not be accepted for you.
Neither shall ye profane My holy name;
 but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel: 
I am the LORD which hallow you, 
that brought you out of the land of Egypt, 
to be your God: I am the LORD.
21:1,5,6,9/22:24,32,33

Ye shall bring out of your habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; they are the firstfruits unto the LORD.
*
And when ye reap the harvest of your land, 
thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: 
thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger: 
I am the LORD your God.
23:16,22

Feast of Trumpets 23:23-25
In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. Ye shall do no servile work therein: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
23:24,25

Day of Atonement 23:26-32
Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD. For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
23:27,29

Feast of Tabernacles 23:33-44
The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the LORD. Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; 
--and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: 
--it is a solemn assembly; 
--and ye shall do no servile work therein.
23:34,36

The Tabernacle 24:1-9
*....bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually. Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aaron order it from the evening unto the morning before the LORD continually:
*And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth deals shall be in one cake. And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before the LORD. And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

24:2-7

Blasphemy 24:10-16
--And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel: 
--and this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp; 
--And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the name of the LORD, and cursed. 
--And they brought him unto Moses: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:) 
--And they put him in ward, that the mind of the LORD might be shewed them.
* And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him. 
And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him:
24:10-14.16

"An Eye for an Eye" 24:17-23
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.
--And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: 
--and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death.
24:20,21

Sabbatical Year and the Year of Jubilee 25:1-55
When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD. 
Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof; 
But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard. That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: for it is a year of rest unto the land.
And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.
Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.
And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.
25:2-5,8-10

VIII. Epilogue 
Blessings of Obedience 26:1-13
Ye shall keep My sabbaths
and reverence My sanctuary
I am the LORD. 
If ye walk in My statutes, 
and keep My commandments, and do them; 
--Then I will give you rain in due season, 
--and the land shall yield her increase, 
--and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
26:2-4

Punishments for Disobedience 26:14-39
But if ye will not hearken unto Me, and will not do all these commandments; And if ye shall despise My statutes, or if your soul abhor My judgments, so that ye will not do all My commandments, but that ye break My covenant: 
--I also will do this unto you; 
I will even appoint over you terror,...and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it
--And I will scatter you among the heathen.....Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths.
26:14-16,33,34

Repentance 26:40-46
--If they shall confess their iniquity...
Then will I remember My covenant with Jacob
and also My covenant with Isaac
and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember; 
and I will remember the land.
And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break My covenant with them: for I am the LORD their God. But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.

26:40,41,44,45

Tithes & Offerings 27:1-34
And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD'S: it is holy unto the LORD.
And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD.

27:30,32
