Old/New Testament
23 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘The feasts of the LORD which you shall call the Holy Assemblies, these are My Feasts.
3 “Six days work shall be done. But on the seventh day, the Sabbath of Rest, a Holy Convocation. You shall do no work. It is the Sabbath of the LORD, in all your dwellings.
4 “These are the Feasts of the LORD, Holy Convocations which you shall proclaim in their seasons.
5 “In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month, at evening , the Passover of the LORD.
6 “And on the fifteenth day of this month, the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
7 “On the first day you shall have a Holy Convocation. You shall do no servile work.
8 “Also, you shall offer sacrifice made by fire to the LORD for seven days. The seventh day shall be a Holy Convocation. You shall do no servile work.”
9 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
10 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I give to you, and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest to the Priest.
11 ‘And he shall shake the sheaf before the LORD, so that it may be acceptable for you. The Priest shall shake it the day after the Sabbath.
12 ‘And that day when you shake the sheaf, you shall prepare a lamb without blemish, of a year old, for a Burnt Offering to the LORD.
13 ‘And the Meat Offering shall be two tenths of an ephah of fine flour, mingled with oil, for a sacrifice of sweet savor, made by fire to the LORD. And the Drink Offering shall be a fourth of a hin of wine.
14 ‘And you shall eat neither bread nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that you have brought an offering to your God. This shall be a Law forever in your generations and in all your dwellings.
15 ‘And you shall count for yourselves (from the day after the Sabbath): from the day that you shall bring the sheaf of the Shake Offering, seven Sabbaths shall be complete.
16 ‘Until the day after the seventh Sabbath you shall count fifty days. Then you shall bring a new Meat Offering to the LORD.
17 ‘You shall bring bread out of your dwellings for the Shake Offering. They shall be two loaves of two tenths of an ephah of fine flour, baked with leaven, for firstfruits to the LORD.
18 ‘Also, with the bread, you shall offer seven lambs without blemish of one year old and a young bullock and two rams. They shall be for a Burnt Offering to the LORD, with their Meat Offerings and their Drink Offerings, for a sacrifice made by fire of a sweet savor to the LORD.
19 ‘Then you shall prepare a male goat for a Sin Offering, and two lambs of one year old, for Peace Offerings.
20 ‘And the Priest shall shake them to and fro before the LORD with the bread of the firstfruits and with the two lambs. They shall be holy to the LORD, for the Priest.
21 ‘So, the same day you shall proclaim it may be a Holy Convocation to you. You shall do no servile work, an ordinance forever in all your dwellings, throughout your generations.
22 ‘And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not completely rid the corners of your field when you reap. Nor shall you glean anything from your harvest, but shall leave them to the poor and to the stranger. I am the LORD your God.’”
23 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say, ‘In the seventh month, on the first of the month, you shall have a Sabbath for the remembrance of blowing the trumpets, a Holy Convocation.
25 ‘You shall do no servile work, but offer sacrifice made by fire to the LORD.’”
26 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
27 “Also, the tenth of this seventh month shall be a Day of Reconciliation. It shall be a Holy Convocation to you. And you shall humble your souls and offer sacrifice made by fire to the LORD.
28 “And that same day you shall do no work, for it is a Day of Reconciliation, to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God.
29 “For every person that does not humble himself that same day shall be cut off from his people.
30 “And every person that shall do any work that same day, the same person I will also destroy from among his people.
31 “You shall do no sort of work, a Law forever in your generations and in all your dwellings.
32 “This shall be to you a Sabbath of Rest; and you shall humble your souls. On the ninth of the month, at evening, from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your Sabbath.”
33 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
34 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say, ‘On the fifteenth day of this seventh month shall begin the Feast of Tabernacles to the LORD, for seven days.
35 ‘On the first day: a Holy Convocation. You shall do no servile work.
36 ‘For seven days you shall offer sacrifice made by fire to the LORD. On the eighth day shall be a Holy Convocation. And you shall offer sacrifices made by fire to the LORD. It is the Solemn Assembly. You shall do no servile work.
37 ‘These are the Feasts of the LORD (which you shall call Holy Convocations) to offer sacrifice made by fire to the LORD, Burnt Offering, and meat offering, sacrifice, and Drink Offerings, every one upon his day,
38 ‘in addition to the Sabbaths of the LORD, and in addition to your gifts, and in addition to all your vows, and in addition to all your Free Offerings, which you shall give to the LORD.
39 ‘But on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep a Holy Feast to the LORD for seven days. On the first day shall be a Sabbath. And on the eighth day shall be a Sabbath.
40 ‘And on the first day, you shall take for yourselves the fruit of beautiful trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook. And you shall rejoice before the LORD your God for seven days.
41 ‘So, you shall keep this Feast to the LORD for seven days in the year, by a perpetual Ordinance, through your generations. You shall keep it in the seventh month.
42 ‘You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All who are born Israelites shall dwell in booths,
43 ‘so that your posterity may know that I had the children of Israel dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.’”
44 So Moses declared the Feasts of the LORD to the children of Israel.
24 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Command the children of Israel that they bring pure pressed olive oil to you, for the light, to make the lamps burn continually.
3 “Outside the Veil of the Testimony, in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, shall Aaron tend them, from evening until morning, before the LORD always. This shall be a Law, forever, throughout your generations.
4 “He shall tend the lamps upon the pure Candlestick before the LORD, perpetually.
5 “Also, you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes from it. Two tenths of an ephah shall be in one cake.
6 “And you shall set them in two rows, six in a row, upon the pure Table before the LORD.
7 “You shall also put pure incense upon the rows, so that it may be on the Bread for a remembrance, an offering made by fire to the LORD.
8 “Every Sabbath he shall put them in rows before the LORD, forevermore, from the children of Israel, for an everlasting Covenant.
9 “And it shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. And they shall eat it in the Holy Place. For it is Most Holy to him of the offerings of the LORD, made by fire, by a perpetual Ordinance.”
10 And there went out among the children of Israel the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian. And this son of the Israelitish woman and a man of Israel fought each other in the camp.
11 So the Israelitish woman’s son blasphemed the Name, and cursed. And they brought him to Moses. Also, his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12 And they put him under guard until he told them the mind of the LORD.
13 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
14 “Bring the blasphemer outside the camp. And let all who heard him put their hands upon his head. And let all the Congregation stone him.
15 “And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
16 ‘And he who blasphemes the Name of the LORD shall be put to death. All the Congregation shall stone him to death, as well as the stranger, just as he who is born in the land. When he blasphemes the Name, let him be killed.
17 ‘Also, he who kills any man, he shall be put to death.
18 ‘And he who kills a beast, he shall restore it, beast for beast.
19 ‘Also, if a man causes a blemish in his neighbor, just as he has done so shall it be done to him.
20 ‘Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Such a blemish as he has made in any, such shall be repaid to him.
21 ‘And he who kills a beast shall restore it. But he who kills a man shall be killed.
22 ‘You shall have one Law. It shall be the same for the stranger as for one born in the country, for I am the LORD your God.’”
23 Then, Moses told the children of Israel. And they brought the blasphemer out of the camp and stoned him with stones. So, the children of Israel did as the LORD had commanded Moses.
1 The beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 As it is written in the Prophets, “Behold, I send My Messenger before your face, Who shall prepare your way before you.
3 “The voice of him who cries in the wilderness, is, ‘Prepare the way of the Lord! Make His paths straight!’”
4 John baptized in the wilderness, and preached the baptism of repentance, for remission of sins.
5 And all the country of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Now John was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a belt of a skin about his loins. And he ate locusts and wild honey,
7 and preached, saying, “A stronger than I comes after me, Whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
8 “Indeed, I have baptized you with water. But He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost.”
9 And it happened that in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth (a city of Galilee) and was baptized by John in Jordan.
10 And as soon as He had come out of the water, John saw the heavens torn apart, and the Holy Ghost descending upon Him like a dove.
11 Then there was a voice from Heaven, saying, “You are My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased.”
12 And immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.
13 And He was there in the wilderness forty days and was tempted by Satan. He was also with the wild beasts. And the angels ministered to Him.
14 Now after John was committed to prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom of God,
15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled! And the Kingdom of God is at hand! Repent and believe the Gospel!”
16 And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers).
17 Then Jesus said to them, “Follow Me. And I will make you fishers of men.”
18 And immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
19 And when He had gone a little further, He saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, in the ship, mending their nets.
20 And He called them. And they left their father Zebedee in the ship with his hired servants and followed Him.
21 So they entered into Capernaum. And immediately on the Sabbath day, He entered into the Synagogue, and taught.
22 And they were astonished at His doctrine. For He taught them as One Who had authority, and not as the scribes.
