Keeping the Feasts^(A)

¹⁸ ‘Thus says the Lord God: “In the first month, on the first day of the month, you shall take a young bull without blemish and ^(B)cleanse the sanctuary. ^19 (C)The priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering and put it on the doorposts of the ^[a]temple, on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the gateposts of the gate of the inner court. ²⁰ And so you shall do on the seventh day of the month ^(D)for everyone who has sinned unintentionally or in ignorance. Thus you shall make atonement for the temple.

^21 (E)“In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you shall observe the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. ²² And on that day the prince shall prepare for himself and for all the people of the land ^(F)a bull for a sin offering. ²³ On the ^(G)seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to the Lord, seven bulls and seven rams without blemish, daily for seven days, ^(H)and a kid of the goats daily for a sin offering. ^24 (I)And he shall prepare a grain offering of one ephah for each bull and one ephah for each ram, together with a hin of oil for each ephah.

²⁵ “In the seventh month, on the fifteenth day of the month, at the ^(J)feast, he shall do likewise for seven days, according to the sin offering, the burnt offering, the grain offering, and the oil.”
