Leviticus: Greatest Verses Of The Bible.

--Sermon by Dr. Bob Benchoff August 16, 2003.

--Exodus 33.16 updated March 9, 2004.

--Updated January 4, 2004, see Leviticus 27.4&7.

The following are Bible verses or portions of verses. Genesis followed by Exodus and Leviticus:

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1.1 (Note: heavens is plural. See also within the following Leviticus 20.8 with Note).

And God said, "Let there be light". Genesis 1.3.

And God saw that the light was good. Genesis 1.4.

And God called the firmament Heaven. Genesis 1.8.

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image". Genesis 1.26 (Note: "us" and "our").

And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. Genesis 1.31.

And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all the work which he had done. Genesis 2.2.

So God blessed the seventh day. Genesis 2.3.

Then the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. Genesis 2.7.

The tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Genesis2.9.

Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates. Genesis 2.14.

The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden. Genesis 2.15.

But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat. Genesis 2.17.

The rib which the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman. Genesis 2.22.

Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh. Genesis 2.24.

And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed. Genesis 2.25.

Male and female he created them. Genesis 2.27.

And God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it". Genesis 2.28.

Now the serpent was more subtle than any other wild creature that the Lord God had made. Genesis 3.1 (Note: "wild" is less caring and seeking to not be known openly domestically).

God said, 'You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'. Genesis 4.3 (Note: see Book of Mormon page 239 [Alma 12] for a thorough explanation).

But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not die.". Genesis 4.4 (Note: The death to which God had spoken was greater than of man's previous limit of logical progression, if overcome would cause severe responsibility applicable to every person thereafter to rely on logic from higher faith. People were not yet ready for such responsibility as demonstrated in Christ's suffering to death.).

For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil. Genesis 3.5 (Note: In hindsight, knowing God is good and generous [agape], God would have presented such knowledge to man regally if man so choose to comply; or in other words, it is wrong for you to steal a present from someone prior to their time of giving it to you, which timing may depend on your having earned it.).

So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of it's fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, and he ate. Genesis 3.6 (Note: a good toddler might play in the street, a wise good toddler would rather play in the yard).

Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons. Genesis 3.7.

The man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God. Genesis 3.8.

You are dust, and to dust you shall return. Genesis 3.19 (Note: reference Genesis 13.16).

The man called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living. Genesis 3.20.

And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins, and clothed them. Genesis 3.21.

Then the Lord God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now lest he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever". Genesis 3.23.

Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden. Genesis 3.23.

At the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim, and a flaming sword which turnde every way, to guard the way to the tree of life. Genesis 3.24.

I have gotten a man with the help of the Lord. Genesis 4.1.

All the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years. Genesis 5.5.

Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. Genesis 5.24. (Note: some interpret that Enoch walked off the face of the earth with God).

All the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years. Genesis 5.27. (Note: longest known lifespan in human bodily form, after the Lord God).

After Noah was fivehundred years old, Noah became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Genesis 5.32.

The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took to wife such of them as they chose. Genesis 6.2.

Then the Lord said, "My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for he is flesh, but his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.". Genesis 6.3.

The Lord saw the wickedness of man. Genesis 6.5.

And the Lord was sorry that he had made man. Genesis 6.6.

Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. Genesis 6.8.

Noah walked with God. Genesis 6.9.

Make yourself an ark. Genesis 6.14.

I will establish my covenant with you. Genesis 6.18.

Bring two of every sort into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female. Genesis 6.19.

Also take with you every sort of food that is eaten, and store it up; and it shall serve as food for you and for them. Genesis 6.21.

Take with you seven pairs of all clean animals, the make and his mate; and a pair of the animals that are not clean. Genesis 7.2.

For in seven days I will send rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights. Genesis 7.4.

Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark. Genesis 7.23.

Waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days. Genesis 7.24 (Note: verse 4 was satisfied, and more).

The windows of the heavens were closed. Genesis 8.2.

The tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen. Genesis 8.5.

At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark. Genesis 8.6.

Sent forth a raven; and it went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth. Genesis 8.7.

But the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. Genesis 8.9.

And the dove came back to him in the evening, and lo, in her mouth a freshly plucked olive leaf; so Noah knew that the waters had subsided.

Then Noah built an altar to the Lord. Genesis 8.20.

The Lord smelled the pleasing odor, the Lord said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground". Genesis 8.21.

Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. Genesis 9.3.

Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is , its blood. Genesis 9.4.

Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your descendants after you. Genesis 9.9.

And with every living creature that is with you. Genesis 9.10.

This is the sign of the covenant. Genesis 9.12.

I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Genesis 9.13.

Noah was the first tiller of the soil. He planted a vineyard. Genesis 9.20.

And he drank of the wine, and became drunk, and lay uncovered in his tent. Genesis 9.21.

A slave of slaves shall he be. Genesis 9.25.

He was the first on earth to become a mighty man. Genesis 10.8.

The beginning of his kingdom was Babel. Genesis 10.10.

From these the nations spread abroad on the earth after the flood. Genesis 10.32.

Now the whole earth had one language and few words. Genesis 11.1.

Come let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with it's top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves. Genesis 11.4.

Nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Genesis 11.6.

Come let us go down there and confuse their language that they may not understand one another's speech. Genesis 11.7 (Note: the nation separated itself from the other people of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, so God gave the nation more of what they desired, even separation from themselves).

Now the Lord said to Abram, "Go". Genesis 12.1.

And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. Genesis 12.2.

I will bless those who bless you, and him who curses you I will curse; and by you all the families of the earth shall bless themselves. Genesis 12.3.

So Abram went, as the Lord had told him. Genesis 12.4.

"To your descendants I will give this land." So he built there an altar to the Lord. Genesis 12.7.

Pitched his tent with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; and there he built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord. Genesis 12.8 (Note: about 20 miles North of the place of Jesus Christ's birth, Bethlehem).

Now there was a famine in the land. So Abram went down to Egypt. Genesis 12.10.

Say you are my sister. Genesis 12.13 (Note: reference Genesis 20.12).

But the Lord afflicted Pharaoh and his house with great plagues. Genesis 12.17.

So Pharaoh called Abram, and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you say, 'She is my sister,' so that I took her for my wife?". Genesis 12.18.

Now then here is your wife, take her, and be gone. Genesis 12.19 (Note: so prostitution was used to thwart murder, prior to the Commandments).

Now Abram was very rich. Genesis 13.2.

Let there be no strife between you and me. Genesis 13.8.

I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if one can count the dust of the earth, your descendants also can be counted. Genesis 13.16.

Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are at Hebron; and there he built an altar to the Lord. Genesis 13.18.

When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men. Genesis 14.14.

And he divided his forces against them by night. Genesis 14.15.

Then he brought back all the goods, and also brought back his kinsman Lot with his goods, and the women and the people. Genesis 14.16.

And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was priest of God Most High. Genesis 14.18.

And "I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.". Genesis 17.2.

Then Abram fell on his face; and God said to him,. Genesis 17.3.

"Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations". Genesis 17.4.

And God said to Abraham, "As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name. Genesis 17.15.

But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" Genesis 22.11.

When they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived. Genesis 45.27.

So Israel took his journey with all that he had,and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac. Genesis 46.1.

Then he said, "I am God, the God of your father; do not be afraid to go down to Egypt; for I will there make of you a great nation. Genesis 46.2.

Jacob blessed Pharaoh. Genesis 47.10.

Then Joseph settled his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded. Genesis 47.11.

So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for all the Egyptians sold their fields, because the famine was severe upon them. The land became Pharaoh's. Genesis 47.20.

And as for the people, he made slaves of them from one end of Egypt to the other. Genesis 47.21 (Note: Vulgate Latin Version: he removed them to the cities).

Only the land of the priests he did not buy; for the priests had a fixed allowance from Pharaoh, and lived on the allowance from Pharaoh, and lived on them; therefore they did not sell their land. Genesis 47.22.

At the harvests you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four fifths shall be your own, as seed for your households, and as food for your little ones. Genesis 47.24.

And they said, "You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be slaves to Pharaoh.". Genesis 47.25.

As for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today. Genesis 50.20.

"God will visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.". Genesis 50.24.

Then Joseph took an oath of the sons of Israel, saying, "God will visit you". Genesis 50.25.

Exodus

Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph. Exodus 1.8.

And he said to his people, "Behold, the people of Israel are too many and too mighty for us. Exodus 1.9.

Come, let us deal shrewdly with them. Exodus 1.10.

But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and the more they spread abroad. And the Egyptians were in dread of the people of Israel. Exodus 1.12.

And made their lives bitter with hard service, in mortar and brick, and in all kinds of work in the field; in all their work they made them serve with rigor. Exodus 1.14.

Then Pharaoh commanded all his people, "Every son that is born to the Hebrews you shall cast into the Nile, but you shall let every daughter live.". Exodus 1.22.

Now a man from the house of Levi went and took to wife a daughter of Levi. Exodus 2.1.

The woman conceived and bore a son; and when she saw that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months. Exodus 2.2.

And when she could hide him no longer she took for him a basket made of bulrushes, and daubed it with bitumen and pitch; and she put the child in it and placed it abong the reeds at the river's brink. Exodus 2.3.

And his sister stood at a distance, to know what would be done to him. Exodus 2.4.

Now the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river, and her maidens walked beside the river; she saw the basket among the reeds and sent her maid to fetch it. Exodus 2.5.

When she opened it she saw the child; and lo, the babe was crying. She took pity on him and said, "This is one of the Hebrews' children." Exodus 2.6.

Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call you a nurse from the Hebrew women to nurse the child for you?" Exodus 2.7.

And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Go." So the girl went and called the child's mother. Exodus 2.8.

And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him. Exodus 2.9.

And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son; and she named him Moses, for she said, "Because I drew him out of the water." Exodus 2.10.

One day, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his people and looked on their burdens; and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his people. Exodus 2.11.

He looked this way and that, and seeing no one he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. Exodus 2.12 (Note {added 8/29/2003}: Moses greatly jeopardized his own life; as indicated, his physical weakness alone was likely insufficient to do this; see Numbers 12.3).

When Pharaoh heard of it, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from Pharaoh, and stayed in the land of Midian. Exodus 2.15.

The shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. Exodus 2.17.

Moses was content to dwell with the man, and he gave Moses his daughter Zipporah. Exodus 2.21.

In the course of those many days the king of Egypt died. And the people of Israel groaned under their bondage, and cried out for help, and their cry under bondage came up to God. Exodus 2.23.

And God saw the people of Israel, and God knew their condition. Exodus 2.25.

The angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush; and he looked, and lo, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. Exodus 3.2.

And Moses said, "I will turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt." Exodus 3.3.

When the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, "Moses, Moses!" And he said, "Here am I.". Exodus 3.4.

Then he said, "Do not come near; put off your shoes from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground." Exodus 3.5 (Note: "Do not come" being explained: come as a conqueror yet do not come with the intention to overcome since [and you are being made aware] it is the place of holy ground and God, and you shall not attempt to conquer God).

"I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God. Exodus 3.6.

Then the Lord said, "I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters; I know their sufferings". Exodus 3.7.

And "I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites". Exodus 3.8.

"Come, I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring forth my people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt.". Exodus 3.10.

He said, "But I will be with you; and this shall be the sign for you, that I have sent you: when you have brought forth the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God upon this mountain.". Exodus 3.12.

Then Moses said to God, "If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they ask me, 'What is his name?' what shall I say to them?" Exodus 3.13.

God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And he said, "Say this to the people of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.'". Exodus 3.14 (Note: Or I WILL BE WHAT I WILL BE. Personal Note: At this time and I had not seen this before, two doves [representing peace] perched on the posts out the window in front of me: spreading the Word of God has it's great moments personally: I strongly recommend you spread the Word of God too, for the greater glory of God through Christ Jesus, The Great "I AM".).

God also said to Moses, 'Say this to the people of Israel, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you': this is my name for ever and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations. Exodus 3.15 (Note: in this sense {and in other verses, whether or not shown as such for editorial purposes; also some verses start with capital letters for editorial purposes: for readability typical to current understanding}, LORD being capitalized is YHWY with verb [hayah] = to be).

Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, I have observed you and what has been done to you in Egypt. Exodus 3.16.

And I promise that I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt, to the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, a land flowing with milk and honey."'. Exodus 3.17.

And they will hearken to your voice; and you and the elders of Israel shall go to the king of Egypt and say to him, 'The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us; and now, we pray you, let us go a three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.' Exodus 3.18.

I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go unless compelled by a mighty hand. Exodus 3.19.

So I will stretch out my hand and smite Egypt with all the wonders which I will do in it; after that he will let you go. Exodus 3.20.

Each woman shall ask of her neighbor, and of her who sojourns in her house, jewelry of silver and of gold, and clothing, and you shall put them on your sons and on your daughters; thus you shall despoil the Egyptians. Exodus 3.22.

The Lord said to him, "What is that in your hand?" He said, "A rod." Exodus 4.2.

And he said, "Cast it on the ground." So he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from it. Exodus 4.3.

But the Lord said to Moses, "Put out your hand, and take it by the tail"-so he put out his hand and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand-. Exodus 4.4.

"that they may believe that the Lord, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.". Exodus 4.5.

Again, the Lord said to him, "Put your hand into your bosom." And he put his hand into his bosom; and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as white as snow. Exodus 4.6.

Then God said, "Put your hand back into your bosom." So he put his hand back into his bosom; and when he took it out, behold, it was restored like the rest of his flesh. Exodus 4.7.

If they will not believe even these two signs or heed your voice, you shall take some water from the Nile and pour it upon the dry ground; and the water which you shall take from the Nile will become blood upon the dry ground. Exodus 4.9.

The Lord said to him, "Who has made man's mouth? Who makes him dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the Lord?" Exodus 4.11.

"Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.". Exodus 4.12.

But he said, "Oh, my Lord, send, I pray, some other person.". Exodus 4.13.

Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses and he said, "Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well; and behold, he is coming out to meet you, and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart". Exodus 4.14.

"And you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and will teach you what you shall do". Exodus 4.15.

"He shall speak for you to the people; and he shall be a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God". Exodus 4.16.

"And you shall take in your hand this rod, with which you shall do the signs.". Exodus 4.17.

And the Lord said to Moses in Midian, "Go back to Egypt; for all the men who were seeking your life are dead.". Exodus 4.19.

So Moses took his wife and his sons and set them on an ass, and went back to the land of Egypt; and in his hand Moses took the rod of God. Exodus 4.20.

And the Lord said to Moses, "When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the miracles which I have put in your power; but I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go. Exodus 4.21.

And you shall say to Pharaoh, 'Thus says the Lord, Israel is my first-born son'. Exodus 4.22.

And I say to you, "Let my son go that he may serve me"; if you refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay your first-born son.'". Exodus 4.23.

The people believed; and when they heard that the Lord had visited the people of Israel and that he had seen their affliction, they bowed their heads and worshiped. Exodus 4.31.

Afterward Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said, "Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, 'Let my people go, that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.'". Exodus 5.1.

But Pharaoh said, "Who is the Lord, that I should heed his voice and let Israel go?". Exodus 5.2.

"You shall no longer give the people straw to make bricks, as heretofore; let them go and gather straw for themselves. Exodus 5.7.

Let heavier work be laid upon the ment that they may labor at it and pay no regard to lying words. Exodus 5.9.

And the foremen of the people of Israel, whom Pharaoh's task-masters had set over them, were beaten. Exodus 5.14.

The Lord said to Moses, "Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh; for with a strong hand he will sned them out, yea, with a strong hand he will drive them out of his land." Exodus 6.1.

And God said to Moses, "I am the LORD.". Exodus 6.2.

I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but by my name the LORD I did not make myself known to them. Exodus 6.3.

Say therefore to the people of Israel, "I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstreched arm and with great acts of judgment'. Exodus 6.6.

And I will take you for my people, and I will be your God; and you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. Exodus 6.7.

And I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; I will give it to you for a possession. I am the Lord. Exodus 6.8.

Moses spoke thus to the people of Israel; but they did not listen to Moses, because of their broken spirit and their cruel bondage. Exodus 6.9.

And the Lord said to Moses. Exodus 6.10.

Go in, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the people of Israel go out of his land. Exodus 6.11.

And the Lord said to Moses, "See, I make you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.". Exodus 7.1.

Pharaoh will not listen to you; then I will lay my hand upon Egypt and bring forth my hosts, my people the sons of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great acts of judgment. Exodus 7.4.

And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt and bring out the people of Israel from among them. Exodus 7.5.

"When Pharaoh says to you, 'Prove yourselves by working a miracle,' then you shall say to Aaron, 'Take your rod and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it may become a serpent.'". Exodus 7.9.

So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did as the Lord Commanded. Exodus 7.10.

Then Pharaoh summoned the wise men and the sorcerers; and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same by their secret arts. Exodus 7.11.

For every man cast down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods. Exodus 7.12.

Still Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them; as the Lord had said. Exodus 7.13.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is hardened, he refuses to let the people go". Exodus 7.14.

Go to Pharaoh in the morning, as he is going out to the water; wait for him by the river's brink, and take in your hand the rod which was turned into a serpent. Exodus 7.15.

And you shall say to him, 'The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, sent me to you, saying, "Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness; and behold, you have not yet obeyed.". Exodus 7.16.

Thus says the Lord, "By this you shall know that I am the Lord: behold, I will strike the water that is in the Nile with the rod that is in my hand, and it shall be turned to blood". Exodus 7.17.

And the fish in the Nile shall die, and the Nile shall become foul, and the Egyptians will loathe to drink water from the Nile. Exodus 7.18.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, 'Take your rod and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, their canals, and their ponds, and all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'". Exodus 7.19.

Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded; in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, he lifted up the rod and struck the water that was in the Nile, and all the water that was in the Nile turned to blood. Exodus 7.20.

And the fish in the Nile died; and the Nile became foul, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt. Exodus 7.21.

But the magicians of Egypt did the same by their secret arts; so Pharaoh's heart remained hardened, and he would not listen to them; as the Lord had said. Exodus 7.22.

Seven days passed after the Lord had struck the Nile. Exodus 7.25.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord, "Let my people go, that they may serve me. Exodus 8.1.

But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your country with frogs. Exodus 8.2.

The Nile shall swarm with frogs which shall come up into your house, and into your bedchamber and on your bed and into the houses of your servants and of your people, and into your ovens and your kneading bowls. Exodus 8.3.

The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your servants. Exodus 8.4.

So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. Exodus 8.6.

But the magicians did the same by their secret arts, and brought frogs upon the land of Egypt. Exodus 8.7.

Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and said, "Entreat the Lord to take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord.". Exodus 8.8.

And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; the frogs died out of the houses and courtyards and out of the fields. Exodus 8.13.

But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and would not listen to them; as the Lord had said. Exodus 8.15.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, 'Stretch out your rod and strike the dust of the earth that it may become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt'". Exodus 8.16.

And they did so; Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there came gnats on man and beast; all the dust of the earth became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt. Exodus 8.17.

The magicians tried by their secret arts to bring forth gnats, but they could not. Exodus 8.18.

And the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God." But Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them; as the Lord had said. Exodus 8.19.

Then the Lord said to Moses, wait for Pharaoh, as he goes out to the water, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord, "Let my people go, that they may serve me. Exodus 8.20.

Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and your servants and your people, and into your houses; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand. Exodus 8.21.

But on that day I will set apart the land of Goshen, where my people dwell, so that no swarms of flies shall be there; that you may know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth. Exodus 8.22.

Thus I will put a division between my people and your people. By tomorrow shall this sign be. Exodus 8.23 (Note: division = set redemption).

And the Lord did so; there came great swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh and into his servants' houses, and in all the land of Egypt the land was ruined by reason of the flies. Exodus 8.24.

We must go three days' journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the Lord our God as he will command us. Exodus 8.27.

So Pharaoh said, "I will let you go, to sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away. Make entreaty for me.". Exodus 8.28.

So Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to the Lord. Exodus 8.30.

And the Lord did as Moses asked, and removed the swarms of flies from his people; not one remained. Exodus 8.31.

But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and did not let the people go. Exodus 8.32.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, and say to him 'Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, "Let my people go, that they may serve me. Exodus 9.1.

For if you refuse to let them go and still hold them. Exodus 9.2.

Behold, the hand of the Lord will fall with a very severe plague upon your cattle which are in the field, the horses, the asses, the camels, the herds and the flocks. Exodus 9.3.

But the Lord will make a distinction between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, so that nothing shall die of all that belongs to the people of Israel. Exodus 9.4.

And the Lord set a time, saying, "Tomorrow the Lord will do this thing in the land.". Exodus 9.5.

And on the morrow the Lord did this thing; all the cattle of the Egyptians died, but of the cattle of the people of Israel not one died. Exodus 9.6.

But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go. Exodus 9.7.

And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "Take handfuls of ashes from the kiln, and let Moses throw them toward heaven in the sight of Pharaoh. Exodus 9.8.

And it shall become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and become boils breaking out in sores on man and beast throughout all the land of Egypt. Exodus 9.9.

So they took ashes from the kiln, and stood before Pharaoh, and it became boils breaking out in sores on man and beast. Exodus 9.10.

And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were upon the magicians and all the Egyptians. Exodus 9.11.

But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them; as the Lord had spoken to Moses. Exodus 9.12.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, "Let my people go, that they may serve me'". Exodus 9.13.

For this time I will send all my plagues upon your heart, and upon your servants and your people, that you may know that there si none like me in all the earth. Exodus 9.14.

But for this purpose have I let you live, to show you my power, so that my name may be declared throughout all the earth. Exodus 9.16.

You are still exalting yourself against my people, and will not let them go. Exodus 9.17.

Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause very heavy hail to fall, such as never has been in Egypt from the day it was founded until now. Exodus 9.18.

Now therefore send, get your cattle and all that you have in the field into safe shelter; for the hail shall come down upon every man and beast that is in the field and is not brought home, and they shall die. Exodus 9.19.

Then he who feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh made his slaves and his cattle flee into the houses. Exodus 9.20.

But he who did not regard the word of the Lord left his slaves and his cattle in the field. Exodus 9.21.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch forth your hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man and beast and every plant of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.". Exodus 9.22.

Then Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven; and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt. Exodus 9.23.

There was hail, and fire flashing continually in the midst of the hail, very heavy hail, such as had never been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. Exodus 9.24.

The hail struck down everything that was in the field throughout all the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and the hail struck down every plant of the field, and shattered every tree of the field. Exodus 9.25.

Only in the land of Goshen, where the people of Israel were, there was no hail. Exodus 9.26.

Then Pharaoh sent, and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, "I have sinned this time; the Lord is in the right, and I and my people are in the wrong". Exodus 9.27.

Entreat the Lord; for there has been enough of this thunder and hail; I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer. Exodus 9.28.

Moses said to him, "As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will stretch out my hands to the Lord; the thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, that you may know that the earth is the Lord's. Exodus 9.29.

But as for you and your servants, I know that you do not yet fear the Lord God. Exodus 9.30.

So Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and stretched out his hands to the Lord; and the thunder and the hail ceased, and the rain no longer poured upon the earth. Exodus 9.33.

But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet again, and hardened his heart, he and his servants. Exodus 9.34.

So the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people of Israel go; as the Lord had spoken through Moses. Exodus 9.35.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these signs of mine among them". Exodus 10.1.

And that you may tell in the hearing of your son and of your sons' son how I have made sport of the Egyptians and waht signs I have done among them; that you may know that I am the Lord. Exodus 10.2.

So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, "Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.'" Exodus 10.3.

For if you refuse to let my people go, behold tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country. Exodus 10.4.

And they shall cover the face of the land, so that no one can see the land; and they shall eat what is left to you after the hail, and they shall eat every tree of yours which grows in the field. Exodus 10.5.

And they shall fill your houses, and the houses of all your servants and of all the Egyptians; as neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen, from the day they came on earth to this day. Exodus 10.6.

Then the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come upon the land of Egypt, and eat every plant in the land, all that the hail has left.". Exodus 10.12.

So Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of egypt, and the Lord brought an east wind upon the land all that day and all that night; and when it was morning theeast wind had brought the locusts. Exodus 10.13.

And the locusts came up over all the land of Egypt, and settled on the whole land of Egypt, such a dense swarm of locusts as had never been before, nor ever shall be again. Exodus 10.14.

For they covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened, and they ate all the plants in the land and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left; not a green thing remained, neither tree nor plant of the field, through all the land of Egypt. Exodus 10.15.

Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron in haste, and said, "I have sinned". Exodus 10.16.

And the Lord turned a very strong west wind, which lifted the locusts and drove them into the Red Sea; not a single locust was left in all the country of Egypt. Exodus 10.19.

So Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days. Exodus 10.22.

They did not see one another, nor did any rise from his place for three days; but all the people of Israel had light where they dwelt. Exodus 10.23.

Then Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me; take heed to yourself; never see my face again; for in the day you see my face you shall die.". Exodus 10.28.

The Lord said to Moses, "Yet one plague more I will bring upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence". Exodus 11.1.

Speak now in the hearing of the people, that they ask, every man of his neighbor and every woman of her neighbor, jewelry of silver and of gold. Exodus 11.2.

And the Lord gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and in the sight of the people. Exodus 1.3.

All the first-born in the land shall die. Exodus 11.5.

And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has never been, nor ever shall be again. Exodus 11.6.

But against any of the people of Israel, either man or beast, not a dog shall growl; that you may know that the Lord makes a distinction between the Egyptians and Israel. Exodus 11.7.

Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh; and the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the people of Israel go out of his land. Exodus 11.10.

This month shall be for you the beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year for you. Exodus 12.2.

On the tenth day of this month they shall take every man a lamb according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household. Exodus 12.3.

And if the household is too small for a lamb, then a man and his neighbor next to his house shall take according to the number of persons; according to what each can eat you shall make your count for the lamb.

And when the dew had gone up, there was on the face of the wilderness a fine, flake-like thing, fine as hoarfrost on the ground. Exodus 16.14.

When the people of Israel saw it, they said to one another, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, "It is the bread which the Lord has given you to eat". Exodus 16.15 (Note: "What is it?" or "It is manna", in Hebrew: man hu; see Exodus 16.31).

This is what the Lord has commanded: 'Gather of it, every man of you, as much as he can eat; you shall take an omer apeice, according to the number of the persons whom each of you has in his tent.'. Exodus 16.16.

And Moses said to them, "Let no man leave any of it till the morning.". Exodus 16.19.

But they did not listen to Moses; some left part of it till the morning, and it bred worms and became foul; and Moses was angry with them. Exodus 16.20.

He said to them, "This is what the Lord has commanded; 'Tomorrow is a day of solmn rest, a holy sabbath to the Lord; bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over lay by to be kept till the morning.'". Exodus 16.23.

So they laid it by till the morning, as Moses bade them; and it did not become foul, and there were no worms in it. Exodus 16.24.

Moses said, "Eat it today, for today is a sabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field. Exodus 16.25.

Six days you shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is a sabbath, there will be none. Exodus 16.26.

On the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, and they found none. Exodus 16.27.

And the Lord said to Moses, "How long do you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?". Exodus 16.28.

"See! The Lord has given you the sabbath, bread for two days; remain every man of you in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.". Exodus 16.29.

And the people of Israel ate the manna forty years, till they came to a habitable land; they ate the manna, till they came to the border of the land of Canaan. Exodus 16.35.

(An omer is the tenth part of an ephah.). Exodus 16.36.

All the congregation of the people of Israel moved on from the wilderness of Sin by stages, according to the commandment of the Lord, and camped at Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink. Exodus 17.1.

Therefore the people found fault with Moses, and said, "Give us water to drink." And Moses said to them, "Why do you find fault with me? Why do you put the Lord to the proof?". Exodus 17.2.

So moses cried to the Lord, "What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me.". Exodus 17.4.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Pass on before the people, taking with you some of the elders of Israel; and take in your hand the rod with which you struck the Nile, and go. Exodus 17.5.

Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock at Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water shall come out of it, that the people may drink." And Moses did so, in the sight of the elders of Israel. Exodus 17.6.

Then came Amalek and fought with Israel. Exodus 17.8.

Choose for us men, and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand. Exodus 17.9.

Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. Exodus 17.10.

Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed; and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. Exodus 17.11.

But Moses' hands grew weary; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat upon it, and Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; so his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. Exodus 17.12.

And Joshua mowed down Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. Exodus 17.13.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Write this as a memorial in a book and recite it in the ears of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.". Exodus 17.14.

And Moses built an altar and called the name of it, The Lord is my banner. Exodus 17.15.

Moses told his father-in-law all that the Lord had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, all the hardship that had come upon them in the way, and how the Lord had delivered them. Exodus 18.9.

And Jethro rejoiced for all the good which the Lord had done to Israel, in that he had delivered them out of the hand of the Egyptians. Exodus 18.9.

And Jethro said, "Blessed be the Lord, who has delivered you out of the hands of the Egyptians and out of the hand of Pharaoh. Exodus 18.10.

And Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, offered a burnt offering and sacrifices to God; and Aaron came with all the elders of Israel to eat bread with Moses' father-in-law before God. Exodus 18.12.

On the morrow Moses sat to judge the people, and the people stood about Moses from morning till evening. Exodus 18.13.

When Moses' father-in-law saw all that he was doing for the people, he said, "What is this that you are doing for the people? Why do you sit alone, and all the people stand about you from morning till evening?". Exodus 18.14.

You are not able to perform it alone. Exodus 18.18.

Listen to my voice; and I will give you counsel, and God be with you! You shall represent the people before God, and bring their cases to God. Exodus 18.19.

And you shall teach them the statutes and the decisions, and make them know the way in which they must walk and what they must do. Exodus 18.20.

And let them judge the people at all times; every great matter they shall decide themselves; so it will be easier for you, and they will bear the burden with you. Exodus 18.23.

If you do this, and God so commands you, then you will be able to endure, and all this people also will go to their place in peace. Exodus 18.23.

And they judged the people at all times; hard cases they brought to Moses, but any small matter they decided themselves. Exodus 18.26.

And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him out of the mountain, saying, "Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the people of Israel:. Exodus 19.3.

You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. Exodus 19.4.

Now therefore, if you will obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my own possession among all peoples; for all the earth is mine. Exodus 19.5.

You shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel. Exodus 19.6.

And he said to the people, "Be ready by the third day; do not go near a woman.". Exodus 19.15.

On the morning of the third day there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mountain, and a very loud trumpet blast, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled. Exodus 19.16.

Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God; and they took their stand at the foot of the mountain. Exodus 19.17.

And Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke, because the Lord descended upon it in fire; and the smoke of it went up like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain quaked greatly. Exodus 19.18.

And as the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him in thunder. Exodus 19.19.

And the Lord came down upon Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain; and the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. Exodus 19.20.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Go down and warn the people, lest they break through to the Lord to gaze and many of them perish. Exodus 19.21.

Exodus 29.20.

Then you shall take part of the blood that is on the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron and his garments, and upon his sons and his sons' garments with him; and he and his garments shall be holy, and his sons and his sons' garments with him. Exodus 29.20.

The Lord said to Moses. Exodus 30.11.

"When you [total the number] of the people of Israel, then each shall give a ransom for himself to the Lord when you number them.". Exodus 30.12 (Note: "[total the number]" = take the census {Revised Standard Version} or takest the sum (of the children of Israel) {King James Version}.

Each who is numbered in the census shall give this; half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs), half a shekel as an offering to the Lord. Exodus 30.13.

Every one who is numbered in the census, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the Lord's offering. Exodus 30.14.

And you shall take the atonement money from the people of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the tent of meeting; that it may bring the people of Israel to remembrance before the Lord, so as to make atonement for yourselves. Exodus 30.16.

The Lord said to Moses. Exodus 30.17.

"You shall also make a laver of bronze, with its base of bronze, for washing. And you shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.". Exodus 30.18.

With which Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet. Exodus 30.19.

When they go into the tent of meeting, or when they come near the altar to minister, to burn an offering by fire to the Lord, they shall wash with water, lest they die. Exodus 30.20.

They shall wash their hands and their feet, lest they die: it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his descendants throughout their generations. Exodus 30.21.

Moreover, the Lord said to Moses. Exodus 30.22.

Take the finest spices: of liquid myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, two hundred and fifty, and of aromatic cane two hundred and fifty. Exodus 30.23.

And of cassia five hundred, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive oil a hin. Exodus 30.24.

You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy; whatever touches them will become holy. Exodus 30.29.

And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. Exodus 30.30.

And you shall say to the people of Israel, 'This shall be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations.'. Exodus 30.31.

It shall not be poured upon the bodies of ordinary men, and you shall make no other like it in composition; it is holy, and it shall be holy to you. Exodus 30.32.

Whoever compounds any like it or whoever puts any of it on an outsider shall be cut off from his people. Exodus 30.33.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Take sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, sweet spices with pure frankincense.". Exodus 30.34.

And make an incense blended as by teh perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy. Exodus 30.35.

And you shall beat some of it very small, and put part of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting where I shall meet with you; it shall fe for you most holy. Exodus 30.36.

And the incense which you shall make according to its composition, you shall not make for yourselves; it shall be for you holy to the Lord. Exodus 30.37.

Whoever makes any like it to use as perfume shall be cut off froom his people. Exodus 30.38.

The Lord said to Moses. Exodus 31.1.

"See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:". Exodus 31.2.

And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with the ability and intelligence, with knowledge and all craftsmanship. Exodus 31.3.

To devise artistic designs, to work in gold, silver, and bronze. Exodus 31.4.

In cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, for work in every craft. Exodus 31.5.

I have given to all able men ability, that they may make all that I have commanded you:. Exodus 31.6.

The tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereon, and all the furnishings of the tent. Exodus 31.7.

According to all that I have commanded you they shall do. Exodus 31.11.

And the Lord said to Moses. Exodus 31.12.

"Say to the people of Israel, 'You shall keep my sabbaths, for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you man know that I, the Lord, sanctify you.". Exodus 31.13.

It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed. Exodus 31.17.

And he gave to Moses, when he had made an end of speaking with him upon Mount Sinai, the two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God. Exodus 31.18.

When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, "Up, make us gods, who shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.". Exodus 32.1.

And Aaron said to them, "Take off the rings of gold which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.". Exodus 32.2.

So all the people took off the rings of gold which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. Exodus 32.3.

And he received the gold at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, and made a molten calf; and they said, "These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!". Exodus 32.4.

When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation and said, "Tomorrow shall be a feast to the Lord.". Exodus 32.5.

And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play. Exodus 32.6.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Go down; for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves". Exodus 32.7.

I have seen this people, and behold, it is a stiff-necked people. Exodus 32.9.

Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them and I may consume them; but of you I will make a great nation. Exodus 32.10.

But Moses besought the Lord his God and said, "O Lord, why does thy wrath burn hot against thy people, whom thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?". Exodus 32.11.

Why should the Egyptians say, 'With evil intent did he bring them forth, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth'? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. Exodus 32.12.

Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou didst swear by thine own self, and didst say to them, 'I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have promised I will give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever'. Exodus 32.13.

And the Lord repented of the evil which he thought to do to his people. Exodus 32.14 (Note: As the Lord is without sin, once the Lord confirmed the good and loving compassion of Moses for the people the Lord gave him, according to the Lord's comprehensive design the Lord moved from glory to higher glory so people could follow the Lord's example of mercy {Matthew 23.23}; so from the Lord's indication of weakness came strength).

And Moses turned, and went down from the mountain with the two tables of the testimony in his hands, tables that were written on both sides; on the one side and on the other were they written. Exodus 32.15 (Note: "tables" or tablets, as referenced by various sources).

And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables. Exodus 32.16.

As soon as he came near the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, Moses anger burned hot, and he threw the tables out of his hands and broke them at the foot of the mountain. Exodus 32.19.

And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, and ground it to powder, and scattered it upon the water, and made the people of Israel drink it. Exodus 32.20.

And when Moses saw that the people had broken loose (for Aaron had let them break loose, to their shame among their enemies). Exodus 32.25.

Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, "Who is on the Lord's side? Come to me." And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him. Exodus 32.26.

And he said to them, "Thus says the Lord God of Israel, 'Put every man his sword on his side, and go to and fro from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.'". Exodus 32.27.

And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses; and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men. Exodus 32.28.

And Moses said, "Today you have ordained yourselves for the service of the Lord, each one at the cost of his son and of his brother, that he may bestow a blessing upon you this day.". Exodus 32.29.

On the morrow Moses said to the people, "You have sinned a great sin. And now I will go up to the Lord; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.". Exodus 32.30.

So Moses returned to the Lord and said, "Alas, this people have sinned a great sin; they have made for themselves gods of gold". Exodus 32.31.

And now, if thou wilt forgive their sin-and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. Exodus 32.32.

But the Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book. Exodus 32.33.

But now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you; behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I visit, I will visit their sin upon them. Exodus 32.34.

And the Lord sent a plague upon the people, because they made the calf which Aaron made. Exodus 32.35.

The Lord said to Moses, "Depart, go up hence, you and the people whom you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, 'To your descendants I will give it.'. Exodus 33.1.

And I will send an angel before you, and I will drive out the Canaanites, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. Exodus 33.2.

Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up among you, lest I consume you in the way, for you are a stiff-necked people. Exodus 33.3.

When the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned; and no man put on his ornaments. Exodus 33.4.

For the Lord had said to Moses, "Say to the people of Israel, 'You are a stiff-necked people; if for a single moment I should go up among you, I would consume you. So now put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what to do with you.'". Exodus 33.5.

Therefore the people of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments, from Mount Horeb onward. Exodus 33.6.

Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, far off from the camp; and he called it the tent of meeting. And every one who sought the Lord would go out to the tent of meeting, which was outside the camp. Exodus 33.7.

Whenever Moses went out to the tent, all the people rose up, and every man stood at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he had gone into the tent. Exodus 33.8.

When Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the door of the tent, and the Lord would speak with Moses. Exodus 33.9.

And when all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the door of the tent, all the people would rise up and worship, every man at his tent door. Exodus 33.10.

Thus the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. When Moses turned again into the camp, his servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart from the tent. Exodus 33.11.

Moses said to the Lord, "See thou sayest to me, 'Bring up this people'; but thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, 'I know you by name, and you have also found favor in my sight.'". Exodus 33.12.

Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thy sight, show me now thy ways, that I may know thee and find favor in thy sight. Consider too that this nation is thy people. Exodus 33.14.

And he said to him, "If thy presence will not go with me, do not carry us up from here. Exodus 33.15.

For how shall it be known that I have found favor in thy sight, I and thy people? Is it not in thy going with us, so that we are distinct, I and thy people, from all other people that are upon the face of the earth?. Exodus 33.16 (Note: Yes answers perfect questions: as when The Lord asks God a question. Therefore you, the reader can thwart hesitation to more clearly read the Bible faster. {Note added March 9, 2004, see 2 Corinthians 1.19 with it's ICCDBB Note for further details and mathematical proof of the existence of God}.).

And the Lord said to Moses, "This very thing that you have spoken I will do; for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name.". Exodus 33.17.

Moses said, "I pray thee, show me thy glory.". Exodus 33.18 (Note: The Lord's face was clearly seen by Moses, now mystery via a leap of faith was requested).

And he said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim before you my name 'The Lord'; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.". Exodus 33.19.

But, he said, "you cannot see my face; for man shall not see me and live.". Exodus 33.20.

And the Lord said, "Behold, there is a place by me where you shall stand upon the rock. Exodus 33.21.

And while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Exodus 33.22.

Then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back; but my face shall not be seen. Exodus 33.23.

The Lord said to Moses, "Cut two tables of stone like the first; and I will write upon the tables the words that were on the first tables, which you broke.". Exodus 34.1.

Be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and present yourself ther to me on the top of the mountain. Exodus 34.2.

No man shall coome up with you, and let no man be seen throughout all the mountain; let no flocks or herds feed before that mountain. Exodus 34.3.

So Moses cut two tables of stone like the first; and he rose early in the morning and went up on Mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, and took in his hand two tables of stone. Exodus 34.4.

And the Lord descended in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord. Exodus 34.5.

The Lord passed before him, and proclaimed, "The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. Exodus 34.6.

Keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children's children, to the third and the fourth generation. Exodus 34.7.

And Moses made haste to bow his head toward the earth, and worshiped. Exodus 34.8.

And he said, "If now I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, let the Lord, I pray thee, go in the midst of us, although it is a stiff-necked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thy inheritance.". Exodus 34.9.

And he said, "Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been wrought in all the earth or in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord; for it is a terrible thing that I will do with you.". Exodus 34.10.

Observe what I command you this day. Behold, I will drive out before you the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. Exodus 34.11.

Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither you go, lest it become a snare in the midst of you. Exodus 34.12.

You shall tear down their altars, and break their pillars, and cut down their Asherim. Exodus 34.13.

(For you shall worship no other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God). Exodus 34.14.

Lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and when they play the harlot after their gods and sacrifice to their gods and one invites you, you eat of his sacrifice,. Exodus 34.15.

And you take of their daughters for your sons, and their gods and make your sons play the harlot after their gods. Exodus 34.16.

"You shall make for yourself no molten gods.". Exodus 34.17.

"The feast of unleavened bread you shall keep. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib; for in the month Abib you came out from Egypt.". Exodus 34.18.

All that opens the womb is mine, all your male cattle, the firstlings of cow and sheep. Exodus 34.19.

The firstling of an ass you shall redeem with a lamb, or if you will not redeem it you shall break its neck. All the first-born of your sons you shall redeem. And none shall appear before me empty. Exodus 34.20.

"Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest; in plowing time and in harvest you shall rest.". Exodus 34.21.

And you shall observe the feast of weeks, the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end. Exodus 34.22.

Three times in the year shall all your males appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel. Exodus 34.23.

For I will cast out nations before you, and enlarge your borders; neither shall any man desire your land, when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times in the year. Exodus 34.24.

"You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left until the morning.". Exodus 34.25.

The first of the first fruits of your ground you shall bring to the house of the Lord your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk. Exodus 34.26.

And the Lord said to Moses, "Write these words; in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.". Exodus 34.27.

And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments. Exodus 34.28.

When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, with the two tables of the testimony in his hand as he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God. Exodus 34.29.

And when Aaron and all the people of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. Exodus 34.30.

But Moses called to them; and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him, and Moses talked with them. Exodus 34.31.

And afterward all the people of Israel came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him in Mount Sinai. Exodus 34.32.

And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. Exodus 34.33.

But whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and when he came out, and told the people of Israel what he was commanded. Exodus 34.34.

The people of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses; face shone; and Moses would put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him. Exodus 34.35.

Moses assembled all the congregation of the people of Israel, and said to them, "These are the things which the Lord has commanded you to do.". Exodus 35.1.

Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day you shall ahve a holy sabbath of solemn rest to the Lord; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death. Exodus 35.2.

You shall kindle no fire in all your habitations on the sabbath day. Exodus 35.3.

Moses said to all the congregation of the people of Israel, "This is the thing which the Lord has comanded.". Exodus 35.4.

Take from among you an offering to the Lord; whoever is of generous heart, let him bring the Lord's offering: gold, silver, and bronze. Exodus 35.5.

And let every able man among you come and make all that the Lord has commanded: the tabernacle. Exodus 35.6.

Then all the congregation of the people of Israel departed from the presence of Moses. Exodus 35.20.

And they came, every one whose heart stirred him, and every one whose spirit moved him, and brought the Lord's offering to be used for the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments. Exodus 35.21.

And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every able man in whose mind the Lord had put ability, every one whose heart stirred him up to come to do the work. Exodus 36.2.

And they received from Moses all the freewill offering which the people of Israel had brought for doing the work on the sanctuary. They still kept bringing him freewill offerings every morning. Exodus 36.3.

"The people bring much more than enough for doing the work which the Lord has commanded us to do.". Exodus 36.5.

So Moses claimed throughout the camp, "Let neither man nor woman do anything more for the offering for the sanctuary." So the people were restrained from bringing. Exodus 36.6.

For the stuff they had was sufficient to do all the work, and more. Exodus 36.7.

Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood; two cubits and a half was its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. Exodus 37.1.

This is the sum of the things for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony, as they were counted at the commandment of Moses, for the work of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. Exodus 38.21.

Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the Lord commanded Moses. Exodus 38.22.

And wiht him was Oholiab the son ofAhisamach, of the tribe of Dan, a craftsman and designer and embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet stuff and fine twined linen. Exodus 38.23.

All the gold that was used for the work, in all the construction of the sanctuary, the gold from the offering, was twenty nine talents and seven hundred and thirty shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary. Exodus 38.24.

And the silver from those of the congregation who were numbered was a hundred talents and a thousand seven hundred and seventy five shekels, by the shekel of the sanctuary:. Exodus 38.25.

A beka a head (that is, half a shekel, by the shekel of the sanctuary), for every one who was numbered in the census, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred and three thousand, hive hundred and fifty men. Exodus 38.26.

According to all that the Lord had commanded Moses, so the people of Israel had done all the work. Exodus 39.42.

And Moses saw all the work, and behold, they had done it; as the Lord had commanded, so had they done it. And Moses blessed them. Exodus 39.43.

The Lord said to Moses. Exodus 40.1.

"On the first day of the first month you shall erect the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.". Exodus 40.2.

You shall bring his sons also and put coats on them. Exodus 40.14.

And anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may serve me as priests: and their anointing shall admit them to a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations. Exodus 40.15.

Thus did Moses; according to all that the Lord commanded him, so he did. Exodus 40.16.

And he erected the court round the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the courd. So Moses finished the work. Exodus 40.33.

Then a cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Exodus 40.34.

Throughout all their journeys, whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would go onward. Exodus 40.35.

But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not go onward till the day that is was taken up. Exodus 40.37.

For throughout all their journeys the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel. Exodus 40.38.

Leviticus

The Lord called Moses, and spoke to him from the tent of meeting. Leviticus 1.1.

"Speak to the people of Israel, and say to them, When any man of you brings an offering to the Lord, you shall bring your offering of cattle from the herd or from the flock.". Leviticus 1.2.

"If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish; he shall offer it at the door of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before the Lord". Leviticus 1.3.

He shall lay his hand upon the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him. Leviticus 1.4.

Then he shall kill the bull before the Lord; and Aaron's sons the priests shall present the blood, and throw the blood round about against the altar that is at the door of the tent of meeting. Leviticus 1.5.

And he shall flay the burnt offering and cut it into pieces. Leviticus 1.6.

And Aaron's sons the priests shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire upon the altar. Leviticus 1.8 (Note: "Aaron's sons the priests" shows authority, Luke 10.29-37 shows power.).

But its entrails and its legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, as a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a pleasing odor to the Lord. Leviticus 1.9.

"When any one brings a cereal offering as an offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour; he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense on it". Leviticus 2.1.

And bring it to Aaron's sons the priests. And he shall take from it a handful of the fine flour and oil, with all of its frankincense; and the priest shall burn this as its memorial portion upon the altar, an offering by fire, a pleasing odor to the Lord. Leviticus 2.2.

And what is left of the cereal offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings by fire to the Lord. Leviticus 2.3.

When you bring a cereal offering baked in the oven as an offering, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers spread with oil. Leviticus 2.4.

And if your offering is a cereal offering baked on a griddle, it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mixed with oil. Leviticus 2.5.

You shall break it in pieces, and pour oil on it; it is a cereal offering. Leviticus 2.6.

And what is left of the cereal offering shall be for Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings by fire to the Lord. Leviticus 2.10.

"No cereal offering which you bring to the Lord shall be made with leaven; for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey as an offering by fire to the Lord.". Leviticus 2.11.

And the priest shall burn them on the altar as food offered by fire for a pleasing odor. All fat is the Lord's. Leviticus 3.16.

It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places, that you eat neither fat nor blood. Leviticus 3.18.

And the Lord said to Moses. Leviticus 4.1.

"Say to the people of Israel, If any one sins unwittingly in any of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done". Leviticus 4.2.

"If the whole congregation of Isreal commits a sin unwittingly nad the thing is hidden from the eyes of the assembly, and they do any one of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done and are guilty". Leviticus 4.3.

Thus shall he do with the bull; as he did with the bull of the sin offering, so shall he do with this; and the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven. Leviticus 4.20.

When a ruler sins, doing unwittingly any one of all the things which the Lord his God has commanded not to be done, and is guilty. Leviticus 4.22.

If any one of the common people sins unwittingly any one of the things which the Lord has commanded not to be done, and is guilty. Leviticus 4.27.

And all its fat he shall remove, as the fat is removed from the peace offerings, and the priest shall burn it upon the altar for a pleasing odor to the Lord; and the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven. Leviticus 4.31.

If any one sins in that he hears a public adjuration to testify and though he is a witness, whether he has seen or come to know the matter, yet does not speak, he shall bear his iniquity. Leviticus 5.1 (Note: Therefore, if you withhold evidence and/or for instance see someone hurting someone and you take no action, then you support the crime and share the burden of blame: The Lord said "For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Matthew 11.30).

Or if any one touches an unclean thing, whether the carcass of an unclean beast or a carcass of unclean cattle or a carcass of unclean swarming things, and it is hidden from him, and he has become unclean, he shall be guilty. Leviticus 5.2.

Or is he touches human uncleanness, of whatever sort the uncleanness may be with which one becomes unclean, and it is hidden from him, when he comes to know it he shall be guilty. Leviticus 5.3.

Or if any one utters with his lips a rash oath to do evil or to do good, any sort of rash oath that men swear, and it is hidden from him, when he comes to know it he shall in any of these be guilty. Leviticus 5.4.

When a man is guilty in any of these, he shall confess the sin he has committed. Leviticus 5.5.

And he shall bring his guilt offering to the Lord for the sin which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb or a goat, for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for him for his sin. Leviticus 5.6.

"But if he cannot afford a lamb, then he shall bring, as his guilt offering to the Lord for the sin which he has committed, two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.". Leviticus 5.7.

"But if he cannot afford two turtledoves or two young pigeons, then he shall bring, as his offering for the sin which he has committed, a tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering; he shall put no oil upon it, and shall put no frankincense on it, for it is a sin offering.". Leviticus 5.11.

And he shall bring it to the priest, and the priest shall take a handful of it as its memorial portion and burn this on the altar, upon the offerings by fire to the Lord; it is a sin offering. Leviticus 5.12.

He shall bring to the priest a ram without blemish out of the flock, valued by you at the price for a guilt offering, and the priest shall make atonement for him for the error which he committed unwittingly, and he shall be forgiven. Leviticus 5.18.

It is a guilt offering; he is guilty before the Lord. Leviticus 5.19.

The Lord said to Moses. Leviticus 6.1.

"If any one sins and commits a breach of faith against the Lord by deceiving his neighbor in a matter of deposit or security, or through robbery, or if he has oppressed his neighbor". Leviticus 6.2.

Or has found what was lost and lied about it, swearing falsely-in any of all the things which men do and sin therein. Leviticus 6.3.

When one has sinned and become guilty, he shall restore what he took by robbery, or what he got by oppression, or the deposit which was committed to him, or the lost thing which he found. Leviticus 6.4.

Or anything about which he has sworn falsely; he shall restore it in full, and shall add a fifth to it, and give it to him to whom it belongs, on the day of his guilt offering. Leviticus 6.5.

And he shall bring to the priest his guilt offering out of the flock, valued by you at the price for a guilt offering. Leviticus 6.6.

And the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he shall be forgiven for any of the things which one may do and thereby become guilty. Leviticus 6.7 (Note: Here is introduced the absolving of all future sin through the Lord).

The Lord said to Moses. Leviticus 6.8.

"Command Aaron and his sons, saying, The burnt offering shall be on the hearth upon the altar all night until the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it.". Leviticus 6.9.

The fire on it shall not go out; the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and he shall lay the burnt offering in order upon it, and shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings. Leviticus 6.12 (Note: modern symbolism and deeds reference: former United States President Kennedy Memorial gas light application).

And this is the law of the cereal offering. The sons of Aaron shall offer it before the Lord, in front of the altar. Leviticus 6.14 (Note: King James Version substitutes meat for "cereal".).

Every male among the children of Aaron may eat of it, as decreed for ever throughout your generations, from the Lord's offerings by fire; whoever touches them shall become holy. Leviticus 6.18 (The Holy kiss and later the handshake became popular, likely at least in part due to this verse.).

Every cereal offering of a priest shall be wholly burned; it shall not be eaten. Leviticus 6.23.

The Lord said to Moses. Leviticus 6.24.

"Say to Aaron and his sons, 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.". Leviticus 6.25.

The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it; in a holy place it shall be eaten, in the court of the tent of meeting. Leviticus 6.26.

Whatever touches its flesh shall be holy; and when any of its blood is sprinkled on a garment, you shall wash that on which it was sprinkled in a holy place. Leviticus 6.27.

And the earthen vessel in which it is boiled shall be broken; but if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, that shall be scoured, and rinsed in water. Leviticus 6.28.

Every male among the priests may eat of it; it is most holy. Leviticus 6.29 (Note: This gives rise to the idea that a female might attain some level of priesthood [over women, see 1 Timothy 2.12 & 13]. {Note added 8/29/2003: See also Numbers 12.5-10: God speaking with a female, likely a prophetess.}).

But no sin offering shall be eaten from which any blood is brought into the tent of meeting to make atonement in the holy place; it shall be burned with fire. Leviticus 6.30.

This the law of the guilt offering. It is most holy. Leviticus 7.1.

In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the guilt offering, and its blood shall be thrown on the altar round about. Leviticus 7.2.

The guilt offering is like the sin offering, there is one law for them; the priest who makes atonement with it shall have it. Leviticus 7.7.

"And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings which one may offer to the Lord.". Leviticus 7.11.

If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the thank offerings unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers spread with oil, and cakes of fine flour well mixed with oil. Leviticus 7.12 (Note: Thanksgiving Day is a celebration of divine goodness, and is associated with the Puritan Pilgrims plan to form of a new government with the Mayflower Compact).

And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his offering; he shall not leave any of it until the morning. Leviticus 7.15.

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:. Leviticus 7.16 (Note: King James Version; compare Revised Standard Version wording: "votive" and "freewill").

But what remains of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned with fire. Leviticus 7.17 (Note: See John 2.19.).

If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering is eaten on the third day, he who offers it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be credited to him; it shall be an abomination, and he who eats of it shall bear his iniquity. Leviticus 7.18.

Flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burned with fire. All who are clean may eat flesh. Leviticus 7.19 (Note: Reference "unclean" Leviticus Chapter 10 verse 10; with details in Chapter 11).

But the person who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of the Lord's peace offerings while an uncleanness is on him, that person shall be cut off from his people. Leviticus 7.20.

And if anyone touches an unclean thing, whether the uncleanness of man or an unclean beast or any unclean abomination, and then eats of the flesh of teh sacrifice of the Lord's peace offerings, that person shall be cut off from his people. Leviticus 7.21.

You shall eat no fat, of ox, or sheep, or goat. Leviticus 7.23.

The fat of an animal that dies of itself, and the fat of one that is torn by beasts, may be put to any other use, but on no account shall you eat it. Leviticus 7.24.

For every person who eats of the fat of an animal of which an offering by fire is made to the Lord shall be cut off from his people. Leviticus 7.25.

Moreover you shall eat no blood whatever, whether of fowl or of animal, in any of your dwellings. Leviticus 7.26.

Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people. Leviticus 7.27.

He shall bring with his own hands the offerings by fire to the Lord; he shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may be waved as a wave offering before the Lord. Leviticus 7.30.

The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be for Aaron and his sons. Leviticus 7.31.

The Lord commanded this to be given them by the people of Israel, on the day that they were anointed; it is a perpetual due throughout their generations. Leviticus 7.36.

Aaron and his sons did all the things which the Lord commanded by Moses. Leviticus 8.36.

On the eighth day Moses called Aaron and his sons and the elders of Israel. Leviticus 9.1.

To sacrifice before the Lord, and a cereal offering mixed with oil; for today the Lord will appear to you. Leviticus 9.4.

And they brought what Moses commanded before the tent of meeting and all the congregation drew near and stood before the Lord. Leviticus 9.5.

And Moses said, "This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do; and the glory of the Lord will appear to you.". Leviticus 9.6.

Then Moses said to Aaron, "Draw near to the altar, and offer your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people; and bring the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; as the Lord has commanded.". Leviticus 9.7.

Then Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people and blessed them; and he came down from offering the sin offering and the burnt offering and the peace offerings. Leviticus 9.22.

And Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting; and when they came out they blessed the people, and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people. Leviticus 9.23.

And fire came forth from before the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat upon the altar; and when all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces. Leviticus 9.24.

Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered unholy fire before the Lord, such as he had not commanded them. Leviticus 10.1.

And fire came forth from the presence of the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord. Leviticus 10.2.

Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what the Lord has said, 'I will show myself holy among those who are near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.'" And Aaron held his peace. Leviticus 10.3.

And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, "Draw near, carry your brethern from before the sanctuary out of the camp.". Leviticus 10.5.

And Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, "Do not let the hair of your heads hang loose, and do not rend your clothes, lest you die, and lest wrath come upon all the congregation; but your brethern, the whole house of Israel, may bewail the burning which the Lord has kindled. Leviticus 10.6.

And do not go out from the door of the tent of meeting, lest you die; for the annointing oil of the Lord is upon you." And they did according to the word of Moses. Leviticus 10.7.

And the Lord spoke to Aaron, saying. Leviticus 10.8.

Drink no wine nor strong drink, you nor your sons with you, when you go into the tent of meeting, lest you die; it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations. Leviticus 10.9.

You are to distinguish between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean. Leviticus 10.10.

And you are to teach the people of Israel all the statutes which the Lord has spoken to them by Moses. Leviticus 10.11.

And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron. Leviticus 11.1.

"Say to the people of Israel, These are the living things which you may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.". Leviticus 11.2.

Whatever parts the hoof and is cloven footed and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. Leviticus 11.3.

Nevertheless among thos that chew the cud or part the hoof, you shall not eat these: The camel, because it chews the cud but does not part the hoof, is unclean to you. Leviticus 11.4.

And the rock badger, because it chews the cud buty does not part the hoof, is unclean to you. Leviticus 11.5.

And the hare, because it chesw the cud but does not part the hoof, is unclean to you. Leviticus 11.6.

And the swine, because it aprts the hoof and is cloven-footed but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. Leviticus 11.7.

Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean to you. Leviticus 11.8.

These you may eat, of all that are in the waters. Everything in the waters that has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers, you may eat. Leviticus 11.9.

But anything in the seas or the rivers that has not fins and scales, of the swarming creatures in the waters and of the living creatures that are in the waters, is an abomination to you. Leviticus 11.10.

They shall remain an abomination to you; of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall have in abomination. Leviticus 11.11.

Everything in the waters that has not fins and scales is an abomination to you. Leviticus 11.12.

And these you shall have in abomination among the birds, they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, the carrion vulture, the osprey. Leviticus 11.13.

The kite, the falcon according to its kind. Leviticus 11.14.

Every raven according to its kind. Leviticus 11.15.

The ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, the hawk according to its kind. Leviticus 11.16.

The owl, the cormorant, the ibis. Leviticus 11.17.

The water hen, the pelican, the carrion vulture. Leviticus 11.18.

The stork, the heron according to its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat. Leviticus 11.19.

All winged insects that go upon all fours are an abomination to you. Leviticus 11.20.

Yet among the winged insects that go on all fours you may eat those which have legs above their feet, with which to leap on the earth. Leviticus 11.21.

Of them you may eat: the locust according to its kind, the bald locust according to its kind, the cricket according to its kind, and the grasshopper according to its kind. Leviticus 11.22.

But all other winged insects which have four feet are an abomination to you. Leviticus 11.23.

And by these you shall become unclean; whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening. Leviticus 11.24.

And whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. Leviticus 11.25.

These are unclean to you among all that swarm; whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening. Leviticus 11.31.

And anything upon which any of them falls when they are dead shall be unclean, whether it is an article of wood or a garment or a skin or a sack, any vessel that is used for any purpose; it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it shall be clean. Leviticus 11.32 (Note: standardization of blood, water, and spirit in time; or B=(T/S)+W; so to yield goodness and cleanness, an instantaneous change example is baptism, and an eon change example is evolution).

And if any of them falls into any earthen vessel, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it. Leviticus 11.33.

Any food in it which may be eaten, upon which water may come, shall be unclean; and all drink which may be drunk from every such vessel shall be unclean. Leviticus 11.34.

And everything upon which any part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven or stove, it shall be broken in pieces; they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you. Leviticus 11.35.

Nevertheless a spring or a cistern holding water shall be clean; but whatever touches their carcass shall be unclean. Leviticus 11.36 (Note: so blood approximates [or in {non-math} relative terms, equals] water when approaching infinity).

And if any part of their carcass falls upon any seed for sowing that is to be sown, it is clean. Leviticus 11.37 (Note: in counterpoint, as water approaches zero and spirit [seed toward blood] approaches infinity, then cleanliness is given).

But if water is put on the seed and any part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you. Leviticus 11.38.

And if any animal of which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening. Leviticus 11.39 (Note: this indicates that if you plan to kill an animal to eat it, but it dies before you kill it, or if you eat an animal that just died, then you would be unclean until the evening: a likely reason evening suppers are traditional).

And he who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening; he also who carries the carcass shall wash his clothes and be iunclean until the evening. Leviticus 11.40.

Every swarming thing that swarms upon the earth is an abomination; it shall not be eaten. Leviticus 11.41 (Note: in combination with related verses: people can work together, but must not use other living people as their shields, hiding behind them in disregard for them).

Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, all the swarming things that swarm upon the earth, you shall not eat; for they are an abomination. Leviticus 11.42 (Note: See distinctions in Leviticus 11.3 and 1 Corinthians Chapter 8).

You shall not make yourselves abominable with any swarming thing that swarms; and you shall not defile yourselves with them, lest you become unclean. Leviticus 11.43.

For I am the Lord your God; consecreat yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any swarming thing that crawls upon the earth. Leviticus 11.44.

For I am the Lord who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God; you shall therefore be holy, for I am holy. Leviticus 11.45.

This is the law pertaining to beast and bird and every living creature that moves through the waters and every creature that swarms upon the earth. Leviticus 11.46.

To make a distinction between the unclean and the clean and between the living creature that may be eaten and the living creature that may not be eaten. Leviticus 11.47.

The Lord said to Moses. Leviticus 12.1.

Say to the people of Israel, If a woman conceives, and bears a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days; as at the time of her menstruation, she shall be unclean. Leviticus 12.2 (Note: "unclean" being most unlikely to be able to conceive).

And on the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised. Leviticus 12.3 (Note: "circumcised" promoting procreation).

Then she shall continue for thirty-three days in the blood of her purifying; she shall not touch any hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed. Leviticus 12.4.

But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her menstruation; and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying for sixty-six days. Leviticus 12.5.

And when the days of her purifying are completed, whether for a son or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the door of the tent of meeting a lamb a year old for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove for a sin offering. Leviticus 12.6.

And he shall offer it before the Lord, and make atonement for her; then she shall be clean from the flow of her blood. This is the law for her who bears a child, either male or female. Leviticus 12.7.

And if she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering, and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean. Leviticus 12.8.

The Lord said to Moses and Aaron. Leviticus 13.1.

When you sow in the eighth year, you will be eating old produce; until the ninth year, when its produce comes in, you shall eat the old. Leviticus 25.22.

And if one of the Levites does not exercise his right of redemption, then the house that was sold in a city of their possession shall be released in the jubilee; for the houses in the cities of the Levites are their possession among the people of Israel. Leviticus 25.33.

But the fields of common land belonging to their cities may not be sold; for that is their perpetual possession. Leviticus 25.34.

And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall execute vengeance for the covenant; and if you gather within your cities I will send pestilence among you, and you shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy. Leviticus 26.25 (Note: "for the covenant" shows that God's Word for all faithful people is more valuable than for any deceitful person wrongly choosing to work contrary to God's will: hence God is no respecter of men, see 1 Peter 2.15-17).

These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which the Lord made between him and the people of Israel on Mount Sinai by Moses. Leviticus 26.46.

When a man makes a special vow of persons to the Lord at your valuation. Leviticus 27.2.

Then your valuation of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. Leviticus 27.3.

If the person is a female, your valuation shall be thirty shekels. Leviticus 27.4 (Note: The 5:3 ratio is repeated in physics, such as harmonics in great cathedral construction, and is associated with emoting feelings, such as of beauty. See 27.7 Note added January 4, 2004.).

If the person is from five years old up to twenty years old, your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels. Leviticus 27.5 (Note: for this age range the female tends to act independently from the male).

If the person is from a month old up to five years old, your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver. Leviticus 27.6 (Note: for this age range the parents and/or guardian is honored by the male / Genesis 2.18).

And if the person is sixty years old and upward, then your valuation for a male shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels. Leviticus 27.7 (Note: For the above valuations we see the Biblical Data Set 3, 5, 10, 10, 15, 20, 30, and 50. This pattern closely correlates to the Bernouli Equation 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,...the principle being one number plus the next number equals the next number, for instance, 13 + 21 = 34.).

And if a man is too poor to pay your valuation, then he shall bring the person before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to the ability of him who vowed the priest. Leviticus 27.8.

If it is an animal such as men offer as an offering to the Lord, all of such that any man gives to the Lord is holy. Leviticus 27.9.

He shall not substitute anything for it or exchange it, a good for a bad, for a bad for a good; and if he makes any exchange of beast for beast, then both it and that for which it is exchanged shall be holy. Leviticus 27.10.

But if he wishes to redeem it, he shall add a fifth to the valuation. Leviticus 27.13.

But if he dedicates his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall compute the money-value for it according to the years that remain until the year of jubilee, and a deduction shall be made from your valuation. Leviticus 27.18.

Every valuation shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall make a shekel. Leviticus 27.25.

But a firstling of animals, which as a firstling belongs to the Lord, no man may dedicate; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord's. Leviticus 27.26.

No one devoted, who is to be utterly destroyed from among men, shall be ransomed; he shall be put to death. Leviticus 27.29 (Note: To seek and then receive sanctuary is honorable and is naturally of protective forebearance, yet God has ultimate valuation authority).

All the tithe of herds and flocks, every tenth animal of all that pass under the herdsman's staff shall be holy to the Lord. Leviticus 27.32 (Note: Thus with Leviticus 27.26, the first tenth of all income is the Lord's, a tithe to be dedicated and given to the Lord; to be received by the Lord's priest.).

These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the people of Israel on Mount Sinai. Leviticus 27.34 (Note: Also see Exodus 20 verses 1 through 17.).
