Book of Leviticus
Leviticus 1:1 says the "the Lord called unto Moses, and spake unto him out
of the tabernacle of the congregation" (or tent of meeting"), which reminds
one that Leviticus is the sequel to Exodus. Exodus ended with the erection
of the tabernacle and God appearing in a cloud over the tent of meeting,
the tent at the center of the tabernacle housing the ark and other sacred
furniture (Exodus 40:16-38). The laws in Leviticus form part of a
historical narrative. They are recorded to show how Israel became the
nation it did. They show what was involved in being called to be the people
of God. They illustrate how God's covenant purpose to make them "a kingdom
of priests, and a holy nation" (Exodus 19:6), was worked out in an
all-embracing system of religious services and social law.
As they called the people back to the beginning of human history, they
recalled the perfection of God and the perfection of His creation. As the
Israelites conformed their lives to the will of God, they would see the
difference between their holy God and the gods of the Egyptians and their
new pagan neighbors in Canaan. The goal was to let a focus on ritual
holiness and perfection draw them ever closer to moral holiness and
perfection. By making the perfection of God the focus of their lives, they
would be more likely to reflect Him to the Gentile nations.
What the Israelites did not realize is that the law they agreed to pursue
would actually serve as a "tutor to bring [them] to Christ, that [they]
might be justified by faith" (Gal. 3:24). They would discover that keeping
the law would not produce the perfection that God required. The laws of God
were perfect, but the people themselves could never be by their own
efforts.
Themes:
At least four important themes appear in this book that directly relate to
the Book of Exodus. Its recording of the Sinai covenant, and the erection
of the tabernacle.
The first concept is "the presence of God in Israelite worship", as
repeatedly the ceremonies take place "before the Lord". And the food
offerings make "a sweet savor unto the Lord" (e.g., 1:9, 13, 17; 2:9; 3:5).
This concept extends to all times, even in the mundane duties of life.
Second the concept of holiness in the motto of Leviticus: "Be holy, for I
am holy" (11:44-45; 19:2; 20:6). Holy (qadosh), and its cognate terms. For
example, "sanctify, holiness", occur 152 times in Leviticus or about 20
percent of the total occurrences in the Old Testament. "Unclean" (tame'),
and its cognates occur 132 times, or more than 50 percent of the total Old
Testament occurrences. "Clean" (tahor) and related terms occur 74 times, or
about 35 percent of the total Old Testament occurrences. "Profane" (ehilel)
occurs 14 times in Leviticus out of 66 references in the Old Testament. In
addition to these statistics, the language of sacrifice pervades the book.
The word "sacrifice" occurs about 40 times, "priest" is found about 190
times, "blood" about 85 times, and "atonement" about 45 times.
The third major concept emphasized is the "role of sacrifice" as (Hebrews
9:22) says. "Almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and
without shedding of blood is no remission". The first 17 chapters in
Leviticus are devoted to explaining the occasions for and the correct
procedures to the followed in sacrifice.
The fourth area is that of the idea of the "covenant". It is one of the
fundamental presuppositions informing the theology of Leviticus. Leviticus
is the sequel to Exodus. At the heart of Exodus (chapters 19 to 26), is the
Sinai covenant. All that follows in Exodus is a working out of the
covenant. Leviticus explains how covenant worship should be conducted
(chapters 1 to 17), then how the covenant people should behave (chapters 18
to 25), and closes with a section of blessings and curses, which is
entirely appropriate to a covenant document (chapter 26). Indeed, the (last
verse of chapter 26), connects all that precedes with Sinai, where the
covenant was concluded. "These are the statutes and judgments and laws,
which the Lord made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai
by the hand of Moses" (26:46).
Historical Setting:
The core ideas around which Leviticus develops are the holy character of
God and the will of God for Israeli's holiness. God's holiness, mankind's
sinfulness, sacrifice and God's presence in the sanctuary are the book's
most common themes. With a clear, authoritative tone, the book sets forth
instruction toward personal holiness at the urging of God (11:44-45; 19:2;
20:7, 26; compare 1 Peter 1:14-16). Matters pertaining to Israel's life of
faith tend to focus on purity in ritual settings, but not to the exclusion
of concerns regarding Israel's personal purity. In fact, there is a
continuing emphasis on personal holiness in response to the holiness of God
(compare this emphasis in chapters 17 to 27). On over 125 occasions,
Leviticus indicts mankind for uncleanness and/or instructs on how to be
purified. The motive for such holiness is stated in two repeated phrases:
"I am the Lord" and "I am holy". These are used over 50 times (see note on
11:44-45).
The theme of the conditional Mosaic Covenant resurfaces throughout the
book, but particularly (in chapter 26). This contract for the new nation
not only details the consequences for obedience or disobedience to the
covenant stipulations, but it does so in a manner scripted for determining
Israel's history. One cannot help but recognize prophetic implications in
the punishments for disobedience; they sound like the events of the much
later Babylonian deportment, captivity, and subsequent return to the land
almost 900 years after Moses wrote Leviticus (ca. 738 B.C.). The
eschatological implications for Israel's disobedience will not conclude
until Messiah comes to introduce His kingdom and end the curses of (Lev.
Chapter 26 and Deut. Chapter 28; compare Zech. 14:11).
The 5 sacrifices and offerings were symbolic. Their design was to allow the
truly penitent and thankful worshiper to express faith in and love for God
by the observance of these rituals. When the heart was not penitent and
thankful, God was not pleased with the ritual (compare Amos 5:21-27). The
offerings were burnt, symbolizing the worshiper's desire to be purged of
sin and sending up the fragrant smoke of true worship to God. The myriad of
small details in the execution of the rituals was to teach exactness and
precision that would extend to the way the people obeyed the moral and
spiritual laws of God and the way they revered every facet of His Word.
The Book of Exodus concludes with the erection of the tabernacle, which was
constructed according to the pattern God gave to Moses. How was Israel to
use the tabernacle? The instructions in Leviticus answer that question, and
were given to Moses during the month and 20 days between the setting up of
the tabernacle (Exodus 40:17), and the departure of the people from Sinai
(Num. 10:11).
Authorship:
Authorship and date issues are resolved by the concluding verse of the
book, "These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the
sons of Israel at Mount Sinai" (27:34; compare 7:38; 25:1; 26:46). The fact
that God gave these laws to Moses (compare 1:1), appears 56 times in
Leviticus' 27 chapters. In addition to recording detailed prescriptions,
the book chronicles several historical accounts relating to the laws (see
chapters 8 to 10; 24:10-23). The Exodus occurred in 1445 B.C. and the
tabernacle was finished one year later (Exodus 40:17). Leviticus picks up
the record at that point, probably revealed in the first month
(Abib/Nisan), of the second year after the Exodus. The book of Numbers
begins after that in the second month (Ziv; compare Num. 1:1).
It is recorded in the book that God revealed His instructions to Moses, but
it never states that Moses wrote down what he heard. Thus the book's lack
of explicitness about its literary origin is one reason for the great
diversity of views among modern scholars. Some liberal scholars want to
date the book in the fifth century, about a thousand years after the
conservative date for Moses. Four strong arguments support a Mosaic
authorship for the book.
The first argument is that the book always presupposes that the laws were
given to Moses in the wilderness. Time and again it is said, "The Lord
spake unto Moses". The wilderness setting is not only referred to in the
introduction to each group of laws, but it is often alluded to in the laws
themselves. The sacrifices are offered in the tabernacle, and not in the
temple (chapters 1 to 17); lepers must live outside the camp, not outside
the city (13:46; and 17:1-9), presupposes that every Israelite is within
easy reach of the tabernacle. Also, the land of Canaan is viewed as a
future reality where laws are depicted that would apply only to a settled
people (14:34; 18:3; 23:10; 25:2).
Second, there is nothing in the book that could not date from the Mosaic
period relating to sacrificial systems and elaborate rituals. Many of
Israel's neighbors even used the same terms for sacrifice in the fifteenth
century B.C. (compare contemporary Ugarit documents from that area).
Third, the book is unsuited to the needs of the post-exilic age. Chapters
18 and 20 deal at length with the question of marriage, but nothing is said
about intermarriage with Canaanites, which was the burning issue in Ezra
and Nehemiah's time (Ezra 9 and 10; Neh. 13:23-25). The priests of
Nehemiah's day seem opposed to reform, whereas Leviticus magnifies the
office of high priest. Also the tithe laws indicated about a ratio of 10
Levites to one priest in Leviticus, but (Ezra 8:15), reveals that after the
exile there was a great shortage of Levites. The lists in (Ezra 2:36-61 and
Nehemiah 7:39-45), suggest a ratio of 12 priests to one Levite among the
returning exiles.
Finally, the Book of Ezekiel quotes or alludes to Leviticus many times
(compare 10:10 with Ezek. 22:26; compare 18:5 with Ezek. 20:11; compare
chapter 26 with Ezek. chapter 34).
Title:
The original Hebrew title of this third book of the law is taken from the
first word, translated "And He called". Several Old Testament books derive
their Hebrew names in the same manner (e.g. Genesis, "In the beginning";
Exodus "now these are the names"). The title "Leviticus" comes from the
Latin Vulgate version of the Greek Old Testament (LXX) "Leuitikon" meaning
"matters of the Levites" (25:32-33). While the book addresses issues of the
Levites' responsibilities, much more significantly, all the priests are
instructed in how they are to assist the people in worship, and the people
are informed about how to live a holy life. New Testament writers quote the
book of Leviticus over 15 times.
Background and Setting:
Before the year that Israel camped at Mt. Sinai.
(1) The presence of God's glory had never formally resided among the
Israelites;
(2) A central place of worship, like the tabernacle, had never existed;
(3) A structured and regulated set of sacrifices and feasts had not been
given; and
(4) A High-Priest, a formal priesthood, and a cadre of tabernacle workers
had not been appointed.
As Exodus concluded, features one and two had been accomplished, thereby
requiring that elements three and four be inaugurated, which is where
Leviticus fits in. (Exodus 19:6), called Israel to be "a kingdom of priests
and a holy nation". Leviticus in turn is God's instruction for His newly
redeemed people, teaching them how to worship and obey Him.
Israel had, up to that point, only the historical records of the patriarchs
from which to gain their knowledge of how to worship and live before their
God. Having been slaves for centuries in Egypt, the land of a seemingly
infinite number of gods, their concept of worship and the godly life was
severely distorted. Their tendency to hold on to polytheism and pagan
ritual is witnessed in the wilderness wanderings, e.g., when they worshiped
the golden calf (compare Exodus chapter 32). God would not permit them to
worship in the ways of their Egyptian neighbors, nor would He tolerate
Egyptian ideas about morality and sin. With the instructions in Leviticus,
the priests could lead Israel in worship appropriate to the Lord.
Even though the book contains a great deal of law, it is presented in a
historical format. Immediately after Moses supervised the construction of
the tabernacle, God came in glory to dwell there; this marked the close of
the book of Exodus (40:34-38). Leviticus begins with God calling Moses from
the tabernacle and ends with God's commands to Moses in the form of binding
legislation. Israel's King had occupied His place (the tabernacle),
instituted His law, and declared Himself a covenant partner with His
subjects.
No geographical movement occurs in the book. The people of Israel stay at
the foot of Sinai, the mountain where God came down to give His law (25:1;
26:46; 27:34). They were still there one month later when the record of
Numbers began (compare Num. 1:1).
Approaching a Holy God - What it means:
Leviticus is very much a how-to book for ceremonies and worship practices
within the Old Testament system. But this third book of the Pentateuch also
illustrates that God was concerned that His people do what is right, and do
it in the right way. Here are its five interlocking themes:
Holiness:
Holy and holiness occur in Leviticus more than any other book in the Bible.
Leviticus reveals that a God who is set apart from all other "gods" must
have a similar people (11:44-45; 19:2; 20:7-8; 1 Peter 1:15-16). The
ceremonies detailed in this book are about serving Him as a holy and
righteous God, as a God who sanctifies, or "makes holy", His people
(20:7-8).
Worship:
Approaching a holy God is not a casual undertaking. Dealing with the sin
that separates man from God requires sacrifice, which reflects death as the
consequence of sin. The payment for sin, through the offering of sacrifices
"without blemish" or "defect". The sacrificial system was a lesson
concerning the importance and cost of maintaining fellowship with the Holy
God (22:17-25); Matt. 5:48).
Law:
Leviticus is filled with regulations and ordinances, all of which reveal
our inability as humans to be perfect on our own. The Levitical laws would
set the stage for laws that would one day be written on the hearts of God's
people rather than on stone, replacing external obligation with internal
motivation (Jer. 31:33).
Presence:
God' willingness to dwell in the midst of a sinful people, camped in Israel
in the Holy of Holies in the tabernacle, would be a sign of His forgiveness
and grace toward those He redeemed to Himself. It also foreshadowed the day
when God would come to "tabernacle" (dwell), among humanity in human flesh
and later in human hearts (Matt. 5:8; John 1:14; Heb. 10:22).
Atonement:
Sins can be atoned for in the manner of God's choosing (chapters 16 and 17;
see 17:11). In our English Bibles the word atonement is found over 50 times
in Leviticus, with the basis meaning "to cover", or "to make a covering".
Old Testament atonement did not remove sins, but it covered sins until,
ultimately, a final sacrifice would be made when the perfect Lamb of God
offered Himself once and for all (Heb. 9:1-15, 24-28; 10:1-14).
Because He Is Near - What It Means For You:
It was no easy feat for the infant nation of Israel to learn God's ways and
become a set-apart people. In fact, they took many wrong turns on the way
to the Promised Land. They had to learn the implications of living their
lives with a holy God in their midst.
This is true for believers today as well. Even though every Christian has
God's Spirit living within, there is need to be reminded of His nearness
and cultivate a sense of His presence. Paul wrote that believers should
"pray without ceasing" (1 Thess. 5:17). Scripture also urges us to "cleanse
ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness
in the fear of God" (2 Cor. 7:1). Finally, we have the matchless promise
that "if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship
with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from
all sin" (1 John 1:7). The sure knowledge of God's constant presence should
not only flood our lives with comfort, but fill us with a healthy dread of
offending Him and grieving His Spirit. It should also change the way we
deal with one another. As Paul reminded us in (Phil. 4:5), "Let your
gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand".

guilty;"

he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he
do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement
for them, and it shall be forgiven them." "And he shall
carry forth the bullock without the camp, and burn him
as he burned the first bullock: it [is] a sin offering
for the congregation."

through ignorance [against] any of the commandments of the LORD
his God [concerning things] which should not be done, and is

his knowledge; he shall bring his offering, a kid of the goats,
a male without blemish:"

goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt
offering before the LORD: it [is] a sin offering."

sin offering with his finger, and put [it] upon the horns of
the altar of burnt offering, and shall pour out his blood at
the bottom of the altar of burnt offering."

as the fat of the sacrifice of peace offerings: and the priest
shall make an atonement for him as concerning his sin, and it
shall be forgiven him."

ignorance, while he doeth [somewhat against] any of the
commandments of the LORD [concerning things] which ought not to
be done, and be guilty;"

his knowledge: then he shall bring his offering, a kid of the
goats, a female without blemish, for his sin which he hath
sinned."

with his finger, and put [it] upon the horns of the altar of
burnt offering, and shall pour out all the blood thereof at the
bottom of the altar."

atonement for him, and it shall be forgiven him."

the fat of the lamb is taken away from the sacrifice of the
peace offerings; and the priest shall burn them upon the altar,

priest shall make an atonement for his sin that he hath
committed, and it shall be forgiven him."

Leviticus Chapter 5
Leviticus 5:1 "And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of
swearing, and [is] a witness, whether he hath seen or
known [of it]; if he do not utter [it], then he shall
bear his iniquity."
Leviticus 5:2 "Or if a soul touch any unclean thing,
whether [it be] a carcase of an unclean beast, or a
carcase of unclean cattle, or the carcase of unclean
creeping things, and [if] it be hidden from him; he
also shall be unclean, and guilty."
Leviticus 5:3 "Or if he touch the uncleanness of man,
whatsoever uncleanness [it be] that a man shall be
defiled withal, and it be hid from him; when he knoweth
[of it], then he shall be guilty."
Leviticus 5:4 "Or if a soul swear, pronouncing with
[his] lips to do evil, or to do good, whatsoever [it
be] that a man shall pronounce with an oath, and it be
hid from him; when he knoweth [of it], then he shall be
guilty in one of these."
Leviticus 5:5 "And it shall be, when he shall be guilty
in one of these [things], that he shall confess that he
hath sinned in that [thing]:"
Leviticus 5:6 "And he shall bring his trespass offering
unto the LORD for his sin which he hath sinned, a
female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats,
for a sin offering; and the priest shall make an
atonement for him concerning his sin."
Leviticus 5:7 "And if he be not able to bring a lamb,
then he shall bring for his trespass, which he hath
committed, two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto
the LORD; one for a sin offering, and the other for a
burnt offering."
Leviticus 5:8 "And he shall bring them unto the priest,
who shall offer [that] which [is] for the sin offering
first, and wring off his head from his neck, but shall
not divide [it] asunder:"
Leviticus 5:9 "And he shall sprinkle of the blood of
the sin offering upon the side of the altar; and the
rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of
the altar: it [is] a sin offering."
Leviticus 5:10 "And he shall offer the second [for] a
burnt offering, according to the manner: and the priest
shall make an atonement for him for his sin which he
hath sinned, and it shall be forgiven him."
Leviticus 5:11 "But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves,
or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his
offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin
offering; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put
[any] frankincense thereon: for it [is] a sin offering."
Leviticus 5:12 "Then shall he bring it to the priest, and the
priest shall take his handful of it, [even] a memorial thereof,
and burn [it] on the altar, according to the offerings made by
fire unto the LORD: it [is] a sin offering."
Leviticus 5:13 "And the priest shall make an atonement for him
as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it
shall be forgiven him: and [the remnant] shall be the priest's,
as a meat offering."
Leviticus 5:14 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 5:15 "If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through
ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring
for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the
flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the
shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:"
Leviticus 5:16 "And he shall make amends for the harm that he
hath done in the holy thing, and shall add the fifth part
thereto, and give it unto the priest: and the priest shall make
an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering, and
it shall be forgiven him."
Leviticus 5:17 "And if a soul sin, and commit any of these
things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of
the LORD; though he wist [it] not, yet is he guilty, and shall
bear his iniquity."
Leviticus 5:18 "And he shall bring a ram without blemish out of
the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto
the priest: and the priest shall make an atonement for him
concerning his ignorance wherein he erred and wist [it] not,
and it shall be forgiven him."
Leviticus 5:19 "It [is] a trespass offering: he hath certainly
trespassed against the LORD."

Leviticus Chapter 6
Leviticus 6:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying,"
Leviticus 6:2 "If a soul sin, and commit a
trespass against the LORD, and lie unto his
neighbor in that which was delivered him to
keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken
away by violence, or hath deceived his
neighbor;"
Leviticus 6:3 "Or have found that which was
lost, and lieth concerning it, and sweareth
falsely; in any of all these that a man doeth,
sinning therein:"
Leviticus 6:4 "Then it shall be, because he
hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall
restore that which he took violently away, or
the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or
that which was delivered him to keep, or the
lost thing which he found,"
Leviticus 6:5 "Or all that about which he hath
sworn falsely; he shall even restore it in the
principal, and shall add the fifth part more
thereto, [and] give it unto him to whom it
appertaineth, in the day of his trespass
offering."
Leviticus 6:6 "And he shall bring his trespass
offering unto the LORD, a ram without blemish
out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a
trespass offering, unto the priest:"

atonement for him before the LORD: and it shall
be forgiven him for any thing of all that he
hath done in trespassing therein."

saying,"
Leviticus 6:9 "Command Aaron and his sons,
saying, This [is] the law of the burnt
offering: It [is] the burnt offering, because
of the burning upon the altar all night unto
the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be
burning in it."
Leviticus 6:10 "And the priest shall put on his
linen garment, and his linen breeches shall he
put upon his flesh, and take up the ashes which
the fire hath consumed with the burnt offering
on the altar, and he shall put them beside the
altar."
Leviticus 6:11 "And he shall put off his
garments, and put on other garments, and carry
forth the ashes without the camp unto a clean
place."
Leviticus 6:12 "And the fire upon the altar
shall be burning in it; it shall not be put
out: and the priest shall burn wood on it every
morning, and lay the burnt offering in order
upon it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of
the peace offerings."
Leviticus 6:13 "The fire shall ever be burning
upon the altar; it shall never go out."

offering: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the
LORD, before the altar."

the flour of the meat offering, and of the oil thereof,
and all the frankincense which [is] upon the meat
offering, and shall burn [it] upon the altar [for] a
sweet savor, [even] the memorial of it, unto the LORD."
Leviticus 6:16 "And the remainder thereof shall Aaron
and his sons eat: with unleavened bread shall it be
eaten in the holy place; in the court of the tabernacle
of the congregation they shall eat it."
Leviticus 6:17 "It shall not be baked with leaven. I
have given it [unto them for] their portion of my
offerings made by fire; it [is] most holy, as [is] the
sin offering, and as the trespass offering."
Leviticus 6:18 "All the males among the children of
Aaron shall eat of it. [It shall be] a statute for ever
in your generations concerning the offerings of the
LORD made by fire: every one that toucheth them shall
be holy."
Leviticus 6:19 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 6:20 "This [is] the offering of Aaron and of
his sons, which they shall offer unto the LORD in the
day when he is anointed; the tenth part of an ephah of
fine flour for a meat offering perpetual, half of it in
the morning, and half thereof at night."
Leviticus 6:21 "In a pan it shall be made with oil;
[and when it is] baked, thou shalt bring it in: [and]
the baked pieces of the meat offering shalt thou offer
[for] a sweet savor unto the LORD."
Leviticus 6:22 "And the priest of his sons that is
anointed in his stead shall offer it: [it is] a statute
for ever unto the LORD; it shall be wholly burnt."

shall be wholly burnt: it shall not be eaten."

[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."

it: in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the
tabernacle of the congregation."

be holy: and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon
any garment, thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled in
the holy place."

shall be broken: and if it be sodden in a brasen pot, it shall
be both scoured, and rinsed in water."

thereof: it [is] most holy."

[withal] in the holy [place], shall be eaten: it shall be burnt
in the fire."

fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that
covereth the inwards,"

that [is] on them, which [is] by the flanks,
and the caul [that is] above the liver, with
the kidneys, it shall he take away:"

upon the altar [for] an offering made by fire
unto the LORD: it [is] a trespass offering."
Leviticus 7:6 "Every male among the priests
shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in the
holy place: it [is] most holy."

[is] the trespass offering: [there is] one law
for them: the priest that maketh atonement
therewith shall have [it]."
Leviticus 7:8 "And the priest that offereth any
man's burnt offering, [even] the priest shall
have to himself the skin of the burnt offering
which he hath offered."
Leviticus 7:9 "And all the meat offering that
is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed
in the frying pan, and in the pan, shall be the
priest's that offereth it."
Leviticus 7:10 "And every meat offering,
mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons
of Aaron have, one [as much] as another."

sacrifice of peace offerings, which he shall
offer unto the LORD."
Leviticus 7:12 "If he offer it for a
thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the
sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes
mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers
anointed with oil, and cakes mingled with oil,
of fine flour, fried."

offer [for] his offering leavened bread with
the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace
offerings."
Leviticus 7:14 "And of it he shall offer one
out of the whole oblation [for] a heave
offering unto the LORD, [and] it shall be the
priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace
offerings."
Leviticus 7:15 "And the flesh of the sacrifice
of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall
be eaten the same day that it is offered; he
shall not leave any of it until the morning."
Leviticus 7:16 "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 7:17 "But the remainder of the flesh of the
sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire."
Leviticus 7:18 "And if [any] of the flesh of the
sacrifice of his peace offerings be eaten at all on the
third day, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it
be imputed unto him that offereth it: it shall be an
abomination, and the soul that eateth of it shall bear
his iniquity."
Leviticus 7:19 "And the flesh that toucheth any unclean
[thing] shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with
fire: and as for the flesh, all that be clean shall eat
thereof."

of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that [pertain]
unto the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, even
that soul shall be cut off from his people."

unclean [thing, as] the uncleanness of man, or [any]
unclean beast, or any abominable unclean [thing], and
eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings,
which [pertain] unto the LORD, even that soul shall be
cut off from his people."

Leviticus 7:23 "Speak unto the children of Israel,
saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of
sheep, or of goat."
Leviticus 7:24 "And the fat of the beast that dieth of
itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts,
may be used in any other use: but ye shall in no wise
eat of it."
Leviticus 7:25 "For whosoever eateth the fat of the
beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto
the LORD, even the soul that eateth [it] shall be cut
off from his people."
Leviticus 7:26 "Moreover ye shall eat no manner of
blood, [whether it be] of fowl or of beast, in any of
your dwellings."

manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from
his people."

that offereth the sacrifice of his peace offerings unto the
LORD shall bring his oblation unto the LORD of the sacrifice of
his peace offerings."

LORD made by fire, the fat with the breast, it shall he bring,
that the breast may be waved [for] a wave offering before the
LORD."

altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'."

priest [for] a heave offering of the sacrifices of your peace
offerings."
Leviticus 7:33 "He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the
blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right
shoulder for [his] part."
Leviticus 7:34 "For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have
I taken of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of
their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the
priest and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the
children of Israel."
Leviticus 7:35 "This [is the portion] of the anointing of
Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings
of the LORD made by fire, in the day [when] he presented them
to minister unto the LORD in the priest's office;"
Leviticus 7:36 "Which the LORD commanded to be given them of
the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them, [by]
a statute for ever throughout their generations."
Leviticus 7:37 "This [is] the law of the burnt offering, of the
meat offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass
offering, and of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the
peace offerings;"
Leviticus 7:38 "Which the LORD commanded Moses in mount Sinai,
in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer
their oblations unto the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai."

him: also he put in the breastplate the Urim
and the Thummim."

oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that
[was] therein, and sanctified them."

upon his sons' hands, and waved them [for] a wave
offering before the LORD."

the flesh [at] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
and there eat it with the bread that [is] in the basket of
consecrations, as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons shall
eat it."

offering, without blemish, and offer [them] before the
LORD."

rump, and that which covereth [the inwards], and the kidneys,
and the caul [above] the liver:"
Leviticus 9:20 "And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he
burnt the fat upon the altar:"
Leviticus 9:21 "And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron
waved [for] a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses
commanded."
Leviticus 9:22 And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people,
and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin
offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
Leviticus 9:23 "And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of
the congregation, and came out, and blessed the people: and the
glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people."
Leviticus 9:24 "And there came a fire out from before the LORD,
and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat:
[which] when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on
their faces."

Leviticus Chapter 10
Leviticus 10:1 "And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took
either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put
incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD,
which he commanded them not."
Leviticus 10:2 "And there went out fire from the LORD, and
devoured them, and they died before the LORD."
Leviticus 10:3 "Then Moses said unto Aaron, This [is it] that
the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come
nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And
Aaron held his peace."
Leviticus 10:4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons
of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near,
carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp."
Leviticus 10:5 "So they went near, and carried them in their
coats out of the camp; as Moses had said."
Leviticus 10:6 "And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and
unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend
your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the
people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel,
bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled."
Leviticus 10:7 "And ye shall not go out from the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing
oil of the LORD [is] upon you. And they did according to the
word of Moses."
Leviticus 10:8 "And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying,"
Leviticus 10:9 "Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons
with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye
die: [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations:"
Leviticus 10:10 "And that ye may put difference between holy and
unholy, and between unclean and clean;"
Leviticus 10:11 "And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the
statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses."
Leviticus 10:12 "And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto
Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth
of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without leaven
beside the altar: for it [is] most holy:"
Leviticus 10:13 "And ye shall eat it in the holy place, because it [is]
thy due, and thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of the LORD made by fire:
for so I am commanded."
Leviticus 10:14 "And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in
a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for
[they be] thy due, and thy sons' due, [which] are given out of the
sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel."
Leviticus 10:15 "The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they
bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave [it for] a
wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and thy sons'
with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath commanded."
Leviticus 10:16 "And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin
offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and
Ithamar, the sons of Aaron [which were] left [alive], saying,"
Leviticus 10:17 "Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the
holy place, seeing it [is] most holy, and [God] hath given it you to
bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them
before the LORD?"
Leviticus 10:18 "Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the
holy [place]: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy [place], as I
commanded."
Leviticus 10:19 "And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they
offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD;
and such things have befallen me: and [if] I had eaten the sin offering
today, should it have been accepted in the sight of the LORD?"
Leviticus 10:20 "And when Moses heard [that], he was content."
Leviticus 11
Leviticus Chapter 11
Leviticus 11:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses
and to Aaron, saying unto them,"
Leviticus 11:2 "Speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye
shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on
the earth."
Leviticus 11:3 "Whatsoever parteth the hoof,
and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud,
among the beasts, that shall ye eat."
Leviticus 11:4 "Nevertheless these shall ye not
eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that
divide the hoof: [as] the camel, because he
cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he
[is] unclean unto you."
Leviticus 11:5 "And the coney, because he
cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he
[is] unclean unto you."
Leviticus 11:6 "And the hare, because he
cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he
[is] unclean unto you."

the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth
not the cud; he [is] unclean to you."

eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they
[are] unclean to you."
Leviticus 11:9 "These shall ye eat of all that
[are] in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and
scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the
rivers, them shall ye eat."
Leviticus 11:10 "And all that have not fins and
scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all
that move in the waters, and of any living
thing which [is] in the waters, they [shall be]
an abomination unto you:"
Leviticus 11:11 "They shall be even an
abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their
flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in
abomination."
Leviticus 11:12 "Whatsoever hath no fins nor
scales in the waters, that [shall be] an
abomination unto you."
Leviticus 11:13 "And these [are they which] ye
shall have in abomination among the fowls; they
shall not be eaten, they [are] an abomination:
the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,"
Leviticus 11:14 "And the vulture, and the kite
after his kind;"
Leviticus 11:15 "Every raven after his kind;"
Leviticus 11:16 "And the owl, and the night
hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after his
kind,"
Leviticus 11:17 "And the little owl, and the
cormorant, and the great owl,"
Leviticus 11:18 "And the swan, and the pelican,
and the gier eagle,"
Leviticus 11:19 "And the stork, the heron after
her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat."
Leviticus 11:20 "All fowls that creep, going
upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination unto
you."
Leviticus 11:21 "Yet these may ye eat of every
flying creeping thing that goeth upon [all]
four, which have legs above their feet, to leap
withal upon the earth;"
Leviticus 11:22 "[Even] these of them ye may eat; the
locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his
kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the
grasshopper after his kind."
Leviticus 11:23 "But all [other] flying creeping
things, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination
unto you."
Leviticus 11:24 "And for these ye shall be unclean:
whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean
until the even."
Leviticus 11:25 "And whosoever beareth [ought] of the
carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean
until the even."
Leviticus 11:26 "[The carcases] of every beast which
divideth the hoof, and [is] not clovenfooted, nor
cheweth the cud, [are] unclean unto you: every one that
toucheth them shall be unclean."
Leviticus 11:27 " And whatsoever goeth upon his paws,
among all manner of beasts that go on [all] four, those
[are] unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase
shall be unclean until the even."
Leviticus 11:28 "And he that beareth the carcase of
them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the
even: they [are] unclean unto you."
Leviticus 11:29 "These also [shall be] unclean unto you
among the creeping things that creep upon the earth;
the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his
kind,"
Leviticus 11:30 "And the ferret, and the chameleon, and
the lizard, and the snail, and the mole."
Leviticus 11:31 "These [are] unclean to you among all
that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be
dead, shall be unclean until the even."
Leviticus 11:32 "And upon whatsoever [any] of them,
when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean;
whether [it be] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or
skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel [it be], wherein [any]
work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall
be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed."
Leviticus 11:33 "And every earthen vessel, whereinto
[any] of them falleth, whatsoever [is] in it shall be
unclean; and ye shall break it."
Leviticus 11:34 "Of all meat which may be eaten, [that]
on which [such] water cometh shall be unclean: and all
drink that may be drunk in every [such] vessel shall be
unclean."
Leviticus 11:35 "And every [thing] whereupon [any part]
of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; [whether it
be] oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken
down: [for] they [are] unclean, and shall be unclean
unto you."
Leviticus 11:36 "Nevertheless a fountain or pit,
[wherein there is] plenty of water, shall be clean: but
that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean."
Leviticus 11:37 "And if [any part] of their carcase fall upon
any sowing seed which is to be sown, it [shall be] clean."
Leviticus 11:38 "But if [any] water be put upon the seed, and
[any part] of their carcase fall thereon, it [shall be] unclean
unto you."

that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the
even."
Leviticus 11:40 "And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall
wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that
beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be
unclean until the even."
Leviticus 11:41 "And every creeping thing that creepeth upon
the earth [shall be] an abomination; it shall not be eaten."
Leviticus 11:42 "Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and
whatsoever goeth upon [all] four, or whatsoever hath more feet
among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye
shall not eat; for they [are] an abomination."
Leviticus 11:43 "Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with
any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make
yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled
thereby."
Leviticus 11:44 "For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall
therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am]
holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of
creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."
Leviticus 11:45 "For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you up out
of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be
holy, for I [am] holy."
Leviticus 11:46 "This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the
fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters,
and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:"
Leviticus 11:47 "To make a difference between the unclean and
the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the
beast that may not be eaten."

Leviticus Chapter 12
Leviticus 12:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 12:2 "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a
woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall
be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation
for her infirmity shall she be unclean."
Leviticus 12:3 "And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin
shall be circumcised."
Leviticus 12:4 "And she shall then continue in the blood of her
purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed
thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her
purifying be fulfilled."
Leviticus 12:5 "But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be
unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue
in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days."
Leviticus 12:6 "And when the days of her purifying are
fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb
of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or
a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:"
Leviticus 12:7 "Who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an
atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of
her blood. This [is] the law for her that hath born a male or a
female."
Leviticus 12:8 "And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then
she shall bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons; the one
for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and
the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be
clean."
Leviticus 13
Leviticus Chapter 13
Leviticus 13:1 "And the LORD spake unto
Moses and Aaron, saying,"
Leviticus 13:2 "When a man shall have
in the skin of his flesh a rising, a
scab, or bright spot, and it be in the
skin of his flesh [like] the plague of
leprosy; then he shall be brought unto
Aaron the priest, or unto one of his
sons the priests:"
Leviticus 13:3 "And the priest shall
look on the plague in the skin of the
flesh: and [when] the hair in the
plague is turned white, and the plague
in sight [be] deeper than the skin of
his flesh, it [is] a plague of leprosy:
and the priest shall look on him, and
pronounce him unclean."
Leviticus 13:4 "If the bright spot [be]
white in the skin of his flesh, and in
sight [be] not deeper than the skin,
and the hair thereof be not turned
white; then the priest shall shut up
[him that hath] the plague seven days:"
Leviticus 13:5 "And the priest shall
look on him the seventh day: and,
behold, [if] the plague in his sight be
at a stay, [and] the plague spread not
in the skin; then the priest shall shut
him up seven days more:"
Leviticus 13:6 "And the priest shall
look on him again the seventh day: and,
behold, [if] the plague [be] somewhat
dark, [and] the plague spread not in
the skin, the priest shall pronounce
him clean: it [is but] a scab: and he
shall wash his clothes, and be clean."
Leviticus 13:7 "But if the scab spread
much abroad in the skin, after that he
hath been seen of the priest for his
cleansing, he shall be seen of the
priest again:"
Leviticus 13:8 "And [if] the priest see
that, behold, the scab spreadeth in the
skin, then the priest shall pronounce
him unclean: it [is] a leprosy."
Leviticus 13:9 "When the plague of
leprosy is in a man, then he shall be
brought unto the priest;"
Leviticus 13:10 "And the priest shall
see [him]: and, behold, [if] the rising
[be] white in the skin, and it have
turned the hair white, and [there be]
quick raw flesh in the rising;"
Leviticus 13:11 "It [is] an old leprosy
in the skin of his flesh, and the
priest shall pronounce him unclean, and
shall not shut him up: for he [is]
unclean."
Leviticus 13:12 "And if a leprosy break
out abroad in the skin, and the leprosy
cover all the skin of [him that hath]
the plague from his head even to his
foot, wheresoever the priest looketh;"
Leviticus 13:13 "Then the priest shall
consider: and, behold, [if] the leprosy
have covered all his flesh, he shall
pronounce [him] clean [that hath] the
plague: it is all turned white: he [is]
clean."
Leviticus 13:14 "But when raw flesh
appeareth in him, he shall be unclean."
Leviticus 13:15 "And the priest shall
see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to
be unclean: [for] the raw flesh [is]
unclean: it [is] a leprosy."
Leviticus 13:16 "Or if the raw flesh
turn again, and be changed unto white,
he shall come unto the priest;"
Leviticus 13:17 "And the priest shall
see him: and, behold, [if] the plague
be turned into white; then the priest
shall pronounce [him] clean [that hath]
the plague: he [is] clean."
Leviticus 13:18 "The flesh also, in
which, [even] in the skin thereof, was
a boil, and is healed,"
Leviticus 13:19 "And in the place of
the boil there be a white rising, or a
bright spot, white, and somewhat
reddish, and it be showed to the
priest;"
Leviticus 13:20 "And if, when the priest seeth
it, behold, it [be] in sight lower than the
skin, and the hair thereof be turned white; the
priest shall pronounce him unclean: it [is] a
plague of leprosy broken out of the boil."
Leviticus 13:21 "But if the priest look on it,
and, behold, [there be] no white hairs therein,
and [if] it [be] not lower than the skin, but
[be] somewhat dark; then the priest shall shut
him up seven days:"
Leviticus 13:22 "And if it spread much abroad
in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce
him unclean: it [is] a plague."
Leviticus 13:23 "But if the bright spot stay in
his place, [and] spread not, it [is] a burning
boil; and the priest shall pronounce him
clean."
Leviticus 13:24 "Or if there be [any] flesh, in
the skin whereof [there is] a hot burning, and
the quick [flesh] that burneth have a white
bright spot, somewhat reddish, or white;"
Leviticus 13:25 "Then the priest shall look
upon it: and, behold, [if] the hair in the
bright spot be turned white, and it [be in]
sight deeper than the skin; it [is] a leprosy
broken out of the burning: wherefore the priest
shall pronounce him unclean: it [is] the plague
of leprosy."
Leviticus 13:26 "But if the priest look on it,
and, behold, [there be] no white hair in the
bright spot, and it [be] no lower than the
[other] skin, but [be] somewhat dark; then the
priest shall shut him up seven days:"
Leviticus 13:27 "And the priest shall look upon
him the seventh day: [and] if it be spread much
abroad in the skin, then the priest shall
pronounce him unclean: it [is] the plague of
leprosy."
Leviticus 13:28 "And if the bright spot stay in
his place, [and] spread not in the skin, but it
[be] somewhat dark; it [is] a rising of the
burning, and the priest shall pronounce him
clean: for it [is] an inflammation of the
burning."
Leviticus 13:29 "If a man or woman have a
plague upon the head or the beard;"
Leviticus 13:30 "Then the priest shall see the
plague: and, behold, if it [be] in sight deeper
than the skin; [and there be] in it a yellow
thin hair; then the priest shall pronounce him
unclean: it [is] a dry scall, [even] a leprosy
upon the head or beard."
Leviticus 13:31 "And if the priest look on the
plague of the scall, and, behold, it [be] not
in sight deeper than the skin, and [that there
is] no black hair in it; then the priest shall
shut up [him that hath] the plague of the scall
seven days:"
Leviticus 13:32 "And in the seventh day the
priest shall look on the plague: and, behold,
[if] the scall spread not, and there be in it
no yellow hair, and the scall [be] not in sight
deeper than the skin;"
Leviticus 13:33 "He shall be shaven, but the
scall shall he not shave; and the priest shall
shut up [him that hath] the scall seven days
more:"
Leviticus 13:34 "And in the seventh day the
priest shall look on the scall: and, behold,
[if] the scall be not spread in the skin, nor
[be] in sight deeper than the skin; then the
priest shall pronounce him clean: and he shall
wash his clothes, and be clean."
Leviticus 13:35 "But if the scall spread much in the
skin after his cleansing;"
Leviticus 13:36 "Then the priest shall look on him:
and, behold, if the scall be spread in the skin, the
priest shall not seek for yellow hair; he [is]
unclean."
Leviticus 13:37 "But if the scall be in his sight at a
stay, and [that] there is black hair grown up therein;
the scall is healed, he [is] clean: and the priest
shall pronounce him clean."
Leviticus 13:38 "If a man also or a woman have in the
skin of their flesh bright spots, [even] white bright
spots;"
Leviticus 13:39 "Then the priest shall look: and,
behold, [if] the bright spots in the skin of their
flesh [be] darkish white; it [is] a freckled spot
[that] groweth in the skin; he [is] clean."
Leviticus 13:40 "And the man whose hair is fallen off
his head, he [is] bald; [yet is] he clean."
Leviticus 13:41 "And he that hath his hair fallen off
from the part of his head toward his face, he [is]
forehead bald: [yet is] he clean."
Leviticus 13:42 "And if there be in the bald head, or
bald forehead, a white reddish sore; it [is] a leprosy
sprung up in his bald head, or his bald forehead.
Leviticus 13:43 "Then the priest shall look upon it:
and, behold, [if] the rising of the sore [be] white
reddish in his bald head, or in his bald forehead, as
the leprosy appeareth in the skin of the flesh;"
Leviticus 13:44 "He is a leprous man, he [is] unclean:
the priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean; his
plague [is] in his head."
Leviticus 13:45″ And the leper in whom the plague is,
his clothes shall be rent, and his head bare, and he
shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall cry,
Unclean, unclean."
Leviticus 13:46 "All the days wherein the plague [shall
be] in him he shall be defiled; he [is] unclean: he
shall dwell alone; without the camp [shall] his
habitation [be]."
Leviticus 13:47 "The garment also that the plague of
leprosy is in, [whether it be] a woollen garment, or a
linen garment;"
Leviticus 13:48 "Whether [it be] in the warp, or woof;
of linen, or of woollen; whether in a skin, or in any
thing made of skin;"
Leviticus 13:49 "And if the plague be greenish or
reddish in the garment, or in the skin, either in the
warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it [is]
a plague of leprosy, and shall be showed unto the
priest:"
Leviticus 13:50 "And the priest shall look upon the plague, and
shut up [it that hath] the plague seven days:"
Leviticus 13:51 "And he shall look on the plague on the seventh
day: if the plague be spread in the garment, either in the
warp, or in the woof, or in a skin, [or] in any work that is
made of skin; the plague [is] a fretting leprosy; it [is]
unclean."
Leviticus 13:52 "He shall therefore burn that garment, whether
warp or woof, in woollen or in linen, or any thing of skin,
wherein the plague is: for it [is] a fretting leprosy; it shall
be burnt in the fire."
Leviticus 13:53 "And if the priest shall look, and, behold, the
plague be not spread in the garment, either in the warp, or in
the woof, or in any thing of skin;"
Leviticus 13:54 "Then the priest shall command that they wash
[the thing] wherein the plague [is], and he shall shut it up
seven days more:"
Leviticus 13:55 "And the priest shall look on the plague, after
that it is washed: and, behold, [if] the plague have not
changed his color, and the plague be not spread; it [is]
unclean; thou shalt burn it in the fire; it [is] fret inward,
[whether] it [be] bare within or without."
Leviticus 13:56 "And if the priest look, and, behold, the
plague [be] somewhat dark after the washing of it; then he
shall rend it out of the garment, or out of the skin, or out of
the warp, or out of the woof:"
Leviticus 13:57 "And if it appear still in the garment, either
in the warp, or in the woof, or in any thing of skin; it [is] a
spreading [plague]: thou shalt burn that wherein the plague
[is] with fire."
Leviticus 13:58 "And the garment, either warp, or woof, or
whatsoever thing of skin [it be], which thou shalt wash, if the
plague be departed from them, then it shall be washed the
second time, and shall be clean."
Leviticus 13:59 "This [is] the law of the plague of leprosy in
a garment of woollen or linen, either in the warp, or woof, or
any thing of skins, to pronounce it clean, or to pronounce it
unclean."
Leviticus 14
Leviticus Chapter 14
Leviticus 14:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying,"
Leviticus 14:2 "This shall be the law of the
leper in the day of his cleansing: He shall be
brought unto the priest:"
Leviticus 14:3 "And the priest shall go forth
out of the camp; and the priest shall look,
and, behold, [if] the plague of leprosy be
healed in the leper;"
Leviticus 14:4 "Then shall the priest command
to take for him that is to be cleansed two
birds alive [and] clean, and cedar wood, and
scarlet, and hyssop:"
Leviticus 14:5 "And the priest shall command
that one of the birds be killed in an earthen
vessel over running water:"
Leviticus 14:6 "As for the living bird, he
shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the
scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and
the living bird in the blood of the bird [that
was] killed over the running water:"
Leviticus 14:7 "And he shall sprinkle upon him
that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven
times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall
let the living bird loose into the open field."
Leviticus 14:8 "And he that is to be cleansed
shall wash his clothes, and shave off all his
hair, and wash himself in water, that he may be
clean: and after that he shall come into the
camp, and shall tarry abroad out of his tent
seven days."
Leviticus 14:9 "But it shall be on the seventh
day, that he shall shave all his hair off his
head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all
his hair he shall shave off: and he shall wash
his clothes, also he shall wash his flesh in
water, and he shall be clean."
Leviticus 14:10 "And on the eighth day he shall
take two he lambs without blemish, and one ewe
lamb of the first year without blemish, and
three tenth deals of fine flour [for] a meat
offering, mingled with oil, and one log of
oil."
Leviticus 14:11 "And the priest that maketh
[him] clean shall present the man that is to be
made clean, and those things, before the LORD,
[at] the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation:"
Leviticus 14:12 "And the priest shall take one
he lamb, and offer him for a trespass offering,
and the log of oil, and wave them [for] a wave
offering before the LORD:"
Leviticus 14:13 "And he shall slay the lamb in
the place where he shall kill the sin offering
and the burnt offering, in the holy place: for
as the sin offering [is] the priest's, [so is]
the trespass offering: it [is] most holy:"

[some] of the blood of the trespass offering,
and the priest shall put [it] upon the tip of
the right ear of him that is to be cleansed,
and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon
the great toe of his right foot:"

the log of oil, and pour [it] into the palm of his own
left hand:"

in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the
right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the
thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his
right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering:"

in the priest's hand he shall pour upon the head of him
that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make an
atonement for him before the LORD."

offering, and make an atonement for him that is to be
cleansed from his uncleanness; and afterward he shall
kill the burnt offering:"

offering and the meat offering upon the altar: and the
priest shall make an atonement for him, and he shall be
clean."

much; then he shall take one lamb [for] a trespass
offering to be waved, to make an atonement for him, and

the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the
priest shall wave them [for] a wave offering before the
LORD:"

one [for] a sin offering, and the other [for] a burnt
offering, with the meat offering: and the priest shall
make an atonement for him that is to be cleansed before
the LORD."
Leviticus 14:32 "This [is] the law [of him] in whom
[is] the plague of leprosy, whose hand is not able to
get [that which pertaineth] to his cleansing."

saying,"
Leviticus 14:34 "When ye be come into the land of Canaan, which
I give to you for a possession, and I put the plague of leprosy
in a house of the land of your possession;"
Leviticus 14:35 "And he that owneth the house shall come and
tell the priest, saying, It seemeth to me [there is] as it were
a plague in the house:"
Leviticus 14:36 "Then the priest shall command that they empty
the house, before the priest go [into it] to see the plague,
that all that [is] in the house be not made unclean: and
afterward the priest shall go in to see the house:"
Leviticus 14:37 "And he shall look on the plague, and, behold,
[if] the plague [be] in the walls of the house with hollow
strakes, greenish or reddish, which in sight [are] lower than
the wall;"

the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days:"
Leviticus 14:39 "And the priest shall come again the seventh
day, and shall look: and, behold, [if] the plague be spread in
the walls of the house;"
Leviticus 14:40 "Then the priest shall command that they take
away the stones in which the plague [is], and they shall cast
them into an unclean place without the city:"
Leviticus 14:41 "And he shall cause the house to be scraped
within round about, and they shall pour out the dust that they
scrape off without the city into an unclean place:"
Leviticus 14:42 And they shall take other stones, and put
[them] in the place of those stones; and he shall take other
mortar, and shall plaster the house.
Leviticus 14:43 "And if the plague come again, and break out in
the house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after
he hath scraped the house, and after it is plastered;"

behold, [if] the plague be spread in the house, it [is] a
fretting leprosy in the house: it [is] unclean."

of it, and the timber thereof, and all the mortar of the house;

place."

while that it is shut up shall be unclean until the even."

clothes; and he that eateth in the house shall wash his
clothes."

[upon it], and, behold, the plague hath not spread in the
house, after the house was plastered: then the priest shall
pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed."
Leviticus 14:49 "And he shall take to cleanse the house two
birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:"
Leviticus 14:50 "And he shall kill the one of the birds in an
earthen vessel over running water:"
Leviticus 14:51 "And he shall take the cedar wood, and the
hyssop, and the scarlet, and the living bird, and dip them in
the blood of the slain bird, and in the running water, and
sprinkle the house seven times:"
Leviticus 14:52 "And he shall cleanse the house with the blood
of the bird, and with the running water, and with the living
bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with
the scarlet:"
Leviticus 14:53 "But he shall let go the living bird out of the
city into the open fields, and make an atonement for the house:
and it shall be clean."
Leviticus 14:54 "This [is] the law for all manner of plague of
leprosy, and scall,"
Leviticus 14:55 "And for the leprosy of a garment, and of a
house,"
Leviticus 14:56 "And for a rising, and for a scab, and for a
bright spot:"
Leviticus 14:57 "To teach when [it is] unclean, and when [it
is] clean: this [is] the law of leprosy."

before the LORD, and died;"

unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times
into the holy [place] within the veil before the mercy
seat, which [is] upon the ark; that he die not: for I
will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat."

[place]: with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a
ram for a burnt offering."
Leviticus 16:4 "He shall put on the holy linen coat,
and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh,
and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the
linen mitre shall he be attired: these [are] holy
garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water,
and [so] put them on."

fire before the LORD, that the cloud of the incense may
cover the mercy seat that [is] upon the testimony, that
he die not:"

remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness."

Israel."

head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities
of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all
their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall

upon the altar."

shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and
afterward come into the camp."

the goat [for] the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to
make atonement in the holy [place], shall [one] carry forth
without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins,
and their flesh, and their dung."

clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall
come into the camp."

you: [that] in the seventh month, on the tenth [day] of the
month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all,
[whether it be] one of your own country, or a stranger that
sojourneth among you:"
Leviticus 16:30 "For on that day shall [the priest] make an
atonement for you, to cleanse you, [that] ye may be clean from
all your sins before the LORD."
Leviticus 16:31 "It [shall be] a sabbath of rest unto you, and
ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever."

he shall consecrate to minister in the priest's office in his
father's stead, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the
linen clothes, [even] the holy garments:"

sanctuary, and he shall make an atonement for the tabernacle of
the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make an
atonement for the priests, and for all the people of the
congregation."

you, to make an atonement for the children of Israel for all
their sins once a year. And he did as the LORD commanded
Moses."

Leviticus Chapter 17
Leviticus 17:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"

all the children of Israel, and say unto them; This [is] the
thing which the LORD hath commanded, saying,"
Leviticus 17:3 "What man soever [there be] of the house of
Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or
that killeth [it] out of the camp,"
Leviticus 17:4 "And bringeth it not unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, to offer an offering unto the
LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed
unto that man; he hath shed blood; and that man shall be cut
off from among his people:"
Leviticus 17:5 "To the end that the children of Israel may
bring their sacrifices, which they offer in the open field,
even that they may bring them unto the LORD, unto the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest, and offer
them [for] peace offerings unto the LORD."
Leviticus 17:6 "And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon
the altar of the LORD [at] the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, and burn the fat for a sweet savor unto the
LORD."
Leviticus 17:7 "And they shall no more offer their sacrifices
unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be
a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations."

[there be] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which
sojourn among you, that offereth a burnt offering or
sacrifice,"
Leviticus 17:9 "And bringeth it not unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation, to offer it unto the LORD; even
that man shall be cut off from among his people."
Leviticus 17:10 "And whatsoever man [there be] of the house of
Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth
any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul
that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people."
Leviticus 17:11 "For the life of the flesh [is] in the blood:
and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement
for your souls: for it [is] the blood [that] maketh an
atonement for the soul."
Leviticus 17:12 "Therefore I said unto the children of Israel,
No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that
sojourneth among you eat blood."
Leviticus 17:13 "And whatsoever man [there be] of the children
of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which
hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he
shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust."
Leviticus 17:14 "For [it is] the life of all flesh; the blood
of it [is] for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the
children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of
flesh: for the life of all flesh [is] the blood thereof:
whosoever eateth it shall be cut off."
Leviticus 17:15 "And every soul that eateth that which died [of
itself], or that which was torn [with beasts, whether it be]
one of your own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his
clothes, and bathe [himself] in water, and be unclean until the
even: then shall he be clean."
Leviticus 17:16 "But if he wash [them] not, nor bathe his
flesh; then he shall bear his iniquity."

of Israel, Whosoever [he be] of the children of Israel,
or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth
[any] of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put
to death: the people of the land shall stone him with
stones."
Leviticus 20:3 "And I will set my face against that
man, and will cut him off from among his people;
because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to
defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name."
Leviticus 20:4 "And if the people of the land do any
ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of
his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:"

man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and
all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom
with Molech, from among their people."
Leviticus 20:6 "And the soul that turneth after such as
have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a
whoring after them, I will even set my face against
that soul, and will cut him off from among his people."

ye holy: for I [am] the LORD your God."

them: I [am] the LORD which sanctify you."

upon him."

with [another] man's wife, [even he] that committeth
adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and
the adulteress shall surely be put to death."

lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an

all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring
you to dwell therein, spew you not out."

nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all
these things, and therefore I abhorred them."
Leviticus 20:24 "But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit
their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land
that floweth with milk and honey: I [am] the LORD your God,
which have separated you from [other] people."
Leviticus 20:25 "Ye shall therefore put difference between
clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean:
and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by
fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the
ground, which I have separated from you as unclean."

is], for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and

made by fire, [and] the bread of their God, they do offer:
therefore they shall be holy."

or profane; neither shall they take a woman put away from her
husband: for he [is] holy unto his God."

offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for
I the LORD, which sanctify you, [am] holy."

defile himself for his father, or for his mother;"

a harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin
of his own people to wife."

Leviticus 21:17 "Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever [he be] of
thy seed in their generations that hath [any] blemish, let him
not approach to offer the bread of his God."

blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he
that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,"

the most holy, and of the holy."

Leviticus Chapter 22
Leviticus 22:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 22:2 "Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that
they separate themselves from the holy things of the
children of Israel, and that they profane not my holy
name [in those things] which they hallow unto me: I
[am] the LORD."
Leviticus 22:3 "Say unto them, Whosoever [he be] of all
your seed among your generations, that goeth unto the
holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto
the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul
shall be cut off from my presence: I [am] the LORD."
Leviticus 22:4 "What man soever of the seed of Aaron
[is] a leper, or hath a running issue; he shall not eat
of the holy things, until he be clean. And whoso
toucheth any thing [that is] unclean [by] the dead, or
a man whose seed goeth from him;"
Leviticus 22:5 "Or whosoever toucheth any creeping
thing, whereby he may be made unclean, or a man of whom
he may take uncleanness, whatsoever uncleanness he
hath;"
Leviticus 22:6 "The soul which hath touched any such
shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the
holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water."
Leviticus 22:7 "And when the sun is down, he shall be
clean, and shall afterward eat of the holy things;
because it [is] his food."
Leviticus 22:8 "That which dieth of itself, or is torn
[with beasts], he shall not eat to defile himself
therewith: I [am] the LORD."
Leviticus 22:9 "They shall therefore keep mine
ordinance, lest they bear sin for it, and die
therefore, if they profane it: I the LORD do sanctify
them."
Leviticus 22:10 "There shall no stranger eat [of] the
holy thing: a sojourner of the priest, or a hired
servant, shall not eat [of] the holy thing."
Leviticus 22:11 "But if the priest buy [any] soul with
his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in
his house: they shall eat of his meat."
Leviticus 22:12 "If the priest's daughter also be
[married] unto a stranger, she may not eat of an
offering of the holy things."
Leviticus 22:13 "But if the priest's daughter be a
widow, or divorced, and have no child, and is returned
unto her father's house, as in her youth, she shall eat
of her father's meat: but there shall no stranger eat
thereof."
Leviticus 22:14 "And if a man eat [of] the holy thing
unwittingly, then he shall put the fifth [part] thereof
unto it, and shall give [it] unto the priest with the
holy thing."
Leviticus 22:15 "And they shall not profane the holy
things of the children of Israel, which they offer unto
the LORD;"
Leviticus 22:16 "Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of
trespass, when they eat their holy things: for I the
LORD do sanctify them."
Leviticus 22:17 "And the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying,"
Leviticus 22:18 "Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and
unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them,
Whatsoever [he be] of the house of Israel, or of the
strangers in Israel, that will offer his oblation for
all his vows, and for all his freewill offerings, which
they will offer unto the LORD for a burnt offering;"
Leviticus 22:19 "[Ye shall offer] at your own will a
male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or
of the goats."
Leviticus 22:20 "[But] whatsoever hath a blemish,
[that] shall ye not offer: for it shall not be
acceptable for you."
Leviticus 22:21 "And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of
peace offerings unto the LORD to accomplish [his] vow,
or a freewill offering in beeves or sheep, it shall be
perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish
therein."
Leviticus 22:22 "Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having
a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these
unto the LORD, nor make an offering by fire of them
upon the altar unto the LORD."
Leviticus 22:23 "Either a bullock or a lamb that hath
any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, that
mayest thou offer [for] a freewill offering; but for a
vow it shall not be accepted."
Leviticus 22:24 "Ye shall not offer unto the LORD that which is
bruised, or crushed, or broken, or cut; neither shall ye make
[any offering thereof] in your land."
Leviticus 22:25 "Neither from a stranger's hand shall ye offer
the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption
[is] in them, [and] blemishes [be] in them: they shall not be
accepted for you."
Leviticus 22:26 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 22:27 "When a bullock, or a sheep, or a goat, is
brought forth, then it shall be seven days under the dam; and
from the eighth day and thenceforth it shall be accepted for an
offering made by fire unto the LORD."
Leviticus 22:28 "And [whether it be] cow or ewe, ye shall not
kill it and her young both in one day."

thanksgiving unto the LORD, offer [it] at your own will."
Leviticus 22:30 "On the same day it shall be eaten up; ye shall
leave none of it until the morrow: I [am] the LORD."
Leviticus 22:31 "Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and
do them: I [am] the LORD."
Leviticus 22:32 "Neither shall ye profane my holy name; but I
will be hallowed among the children of Israel: I [am] the LORD
which hallow you,"
Leviticus 22:33 "That brought you out of the land of Egypt, to
be your God: I [am] the LORD."

convocations, [even] these [are] my
feasts."

children of Israel, and say unto them,
When ye be come into the land which I
give unto you, and shall reap the
harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a
sheaf of the firstfruits of your
harvest unto the priest:"
Leviticus 23:11 "And he shall wave the
sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted
for you: on the morrow after the
sabbath the priest shall wave it."
Leviticus 23:12 "And ye shall offer
that day when ye wave the sheaf a he
lamb without blemish of the first year
for a burnt offering unto the LORD."
Leviticus 23:13 "And the meat offering
thereof [shall be] two tenth deals of
fine flour mingled with oil, an
offering made by fire unto the LORD
[for] a sweet savor: and the drink
offering thereof [shall be] of wine,
the fourth [part] of an hin."

bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until
the selfsame day that ye have brought an
offering unto your God: [it shall be] a statute
for ever throughout your generations in all
your dwellings."

from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day
that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering;
seven sabbaths shall be complete:"

seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and
ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the
LORD."

habitations two wave loaves of two tenth deals:

baked with leaven; [they are] the firstfruits
unto the LORD."

bread seven lambs without blemish of the first
year, and one young bullock, and two rams: they

kid of the goats for a sin offering, and two
lambs of the first year for a sacrifice of
peace offerings."

with the bread of the firstfruits [for] a wave
offering before the LORD, with the two lambs:
they shall be holy to the LORD for the priest."

selfsame day, [that] it may be a holy
convocation unto you: ye shall do no servile
work [therein: it shall be] a statute for ever
in all your dwellings throughout your
generations."
Leviticus 23:22 "And when ye reap the harvest
of your land, thou shalt not make clean
riddance of the corners of thy field when thou
reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning
of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the
poor, and to the stranger: I [am] the LORD your
God."

one cake."
Leviticus 24:6 "And thou shalt set them in two rows,
six on a row, upon the pure table before the LORD."
Leviticus 24:7 "And thou shalt put pure frankincense
upon [each] row, that it may be on the bread for a
memorial, [even] an offering made by fire unto the
LORD."
Leviticus 24:8 "Every sabbath he shall set it in order
before the LORD continually, [being taken] from the
children of Israel by an everlasting covenant."
Leviticus 24:9 "And it shall be Aaron's and his sons';
and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it [is]
most holy unto him of the offerings of the LORD made by
fire by a perpetual statute."
Leviticus 24:10 "And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose
father [was] an Egyptian, went out among the children of
Israel: and this son of the Israelitish [woman] and a man of
Israel strove together in the camp;"
Leviticus 24:11 "And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed the
name [of the LORD], and cursed. And they brought him unto
Moses: (and his mother's name [was] Shelomith, the daughter of
Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)"
Leviticus 24:12 "And they put him in ward, that the mind of the
LORD might be showed them."
Leviticus 24:13 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 24:14 "Bring forth him that hath cursed without the
camp; and let all that heard [him] lay their hands upon his
head, and let all the congregation stone him."
Leviticus 24:15 "And thou shalt speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin."
Leviticus 24:16 "And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD,
he shall surely be put to death, [and] all the congregation
shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is
born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name [of the LORD],
shall be put to death."
Leviticus 24:17 "And he that killeth any man shall surely be
put to death."
Leviticus 24:18 "And he that killeth a beast shall make it
good; beast for beast."
Leviticus 24:19 "And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbor;
as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;"
Leviticus 24:20 "Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for
tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be
done to him [again]."
Leviticus 24:21 "And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore
it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death."
Leviticus 24:22 "Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for
the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I [am] the
LORD your God."
Leviticus 24:23 "And Moses spake to the children of Israel,
that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the
camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did
as the LORD commanded Moses."
Leviticus 25
Leviticus Chapter 25
Leviticus 25:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount
Sinai, saying,"
Leviticus 25:2 "Speak unto the children of Israel, and
say unto them, When ye come into the land which I give
you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD."
Leviticus 25:3 "Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and
six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in
the fruit thereof;
Leviticus 25:4 "But in the seventh year shall be a
sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD:
thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy
vineyard."
Leviticus 25:5 "That which groweth of its own accord of
thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the
grapes of thy vine undressed: [for] it is a year of
rest unto the land."
Leviticus 25:6 "And the sabbath of the land shall be
meat for you; for thee, and for thy servant, and for
thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and for thy
stranger that sojourneth with thee,"
Leviticus 25:7 "And for thy cattle, and for the beast
that [are] in thy land, shall all the increase thereof
be meat."
Leviticus 25:8 "And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of
years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space
of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty
and nine years."
Leviticus 25:9 "Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of
the jubilee to sound on the tenth [day] of the seventh
month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the
trumpet sound throughout all your land."
Leviticus 25:10 "And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year,
and proclaim liberty throughout [all] the land unto all
the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto
you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession,
and ye shall return every man unto his family."
Leviticus 25:11 "A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be
unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which
groweth of itself in it, nor gather [the grapes] in it
of thy vine undressed."
Leviticus 25:12 " For it [is] the jubilee; it shall be
holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of
the field."
Leviticus 25:13 "In the year of this jubilee ye shall
return every man unto his possession."
Leviticus 25:14 "And if thou sell ought unto thy
neighbor, or buyest [ought] of thy neighbor's hand, ye
shall not oppress one another:"
Leviticus 25:15 "According to the number of years after
the jubilee thou shalt buy of thy neighbor, [and]
according unto the number of years of the fruits he
shall sell unto thee:"
Leviticus 25:16 "According to the multitude of years
thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to
the fewness of years thou shalt diminish the price of
it: for [according] to the number [of the years] of the
fruits doth he sell unto thee."
Leviticus 25:17 "Ye shall not therefore oppress one
another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I [am] the
LORD your God."
Leviticus 25:18 "Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and
keep my judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in
the land in safety."
Leviticus 25:19 "And the land shall yield her fruit,
and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in
safety."
Leviticus 25:20 "And if ye shall say, What shall we eat
the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather
in our increase:"
Leviticus 25:21 "Then I will command my blessing upon
you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit
for three years."
Leviticus 25:22 "And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat
[yet] of old fruit until the ninth year; until her fruits come
in ye shall eat [of] the old [store]."
Leviticus 25:23 "The land shall not be sold for ever: for the
land [is] mine; for ye [are] strangers and sojourners with me."
Leviticus 25:24 "And in all the land of your possession ye
shall grant a redemption for the land."
Leviticus 25:25 "If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold
away [some] of his possession, and if any of his kin come to
redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold."
Leviticus 25:26 "And if the man have none to redeem it, and
himself be able to redeem it;"
Leviticus 25:27 "Then let him count the years of the sale
thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold
it; that he may return unto his possession."
Leviticus 25:28 "But if he be not able to restore [it] to him,
then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that
hath bought it until the year of jubilee: and in the jubilee it
shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession."
Leviticus 25:29 "And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled
city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is
sold; [within] a full year may he redeem it."
Leviticus 25:30 "And if it be not redeemed within the space of
a full year, then the house that [is] in the walled city shall
be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his
generations: it shall not go out in the jubilee."
Leviticus 25:31 "But the houses of the villages which have no
wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the
country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the
jubilee."
Leviticus 25:32 "Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites,
[and] the houses of the cities of their possession, may the
Levites redeem at any time."
Leviticus 25:33 "And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the
house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go
out in [the year of] jubilee: for the houses of the cities of
the Levites [are] their possession among the children of
Israel."
Leviticus 25:34 "But the field of the suburbs of their cities
may not be sold; for it [is] their perpetual possession."
Leviticus 25:35 "And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen
in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: [yea, though
he be] a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee."
Leviticus 25:36 "Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but
fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee."
Leviticus 25:37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury,
nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
Leviticus 25:38 "I [am] the LORD your God, which brought you
forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan,
[and] to be your God."
Leviticus 25:39 "And if thy brother [that dwelleth] by thee be
waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to
serve as a bondservant:"
Leviticus 25:40 "[But] as a hired servant, [and] as a
sojourner, he shall be with thee, [and] shall serve thee unto
the year of jubilee:"
Leviticus 25:41 "And [then] shall he depart from thee, [both]
he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own
family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he
return."
Leviticus 25:42 "For they [are] my servants, which I brought
forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as
bondmen."
Leviticus 25:43 "Thou shalt not rule over him with rigor; but
shalt fear thy God."
Leviticus 25:44 "Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which
thou shalt have, [shall be] of the heathen that are round about
you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids."
Leviticus 25:45 "Moreover of the children of the strangers that
do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their
families that [are] with you, which they begat in your land:
and they shall be your possession."
Leviticus 25:46 "And ye shall take them as an inheritance for
your children after you, to inherit [them for] a possession;
they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the
children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with
rigor."
Leviticus 25:47 "And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by
thee, and thy brother [that dwelleth] by him wax poor, and sell
himself unto the stranger [or] sojourner by thee, or to the
stock of the stranger's family:"
Leviticus 25:48 "After that he is sold he may be redeemed
again; one of his brethren may redeem him:"
Leviticus 25:49 "Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may
redeem him, or [any] that is nigh of kin unto him of his family
may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself."
Leviticus 25:50 "And he shall reckon with him that bought him
from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubilee:
and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of
years, according to the time of a hired servant shall it be
with him."
Leviticus 25:51 "If [there be] yet many years [behind],
according unto them he shall give again the price of his
redemption out of the money that he was bought for."
Leviticus 25:52 "And if there remain but few years unto the
year of jubilee, then he shall count with him, [and] according
unto his years shall he give him again the price of his
redemption."
Leviticus 25:53 "[And] as a yearly hired servant shall he be
with him: [and the other] shall not rule with rigor over him in
thy sight."
Leviticus 25:54 "And if he be not redeemed in these [years],
then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, [both] he, and his
children with him."
Leviticus 25:55 "For unto me the children of Israel [are]
servants; they [are] my servants whom I brought forth out of
the land of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God."
Leviticus 26
Leviticus Chapter
26
Leviticus 26:1 "Ye
shall make you no
idols nor graven
image, neither rear
you up a standing
image, neither
shall ye set up
[any] image of
stone in your land,
to bow down unto
it: for I [am] the
LORD your God."
Leviticus 26:2 "Ye
shall keep my
sabbaths, and
reverence my
sanctuary: I [am]
the LORD."
Leviticus 26:3 "If
ye walk in my
statutes, and keep
my commandments,
and do them;"
Leviticus 26:4
"Then I will give
you rain in due
season, and the
land shall yield
her increase, and
the trees of the
field shall yield
their fruit."
Leviticus 26:5 "And
your threshing
shall reach unto
the vintage, and
the vintage shall
reach unto the
sowing time: and ye
shall eat your
bread to the full,
and dwell in your
land safely."
Leviticus 26:6 "And
I will give peace
in the land, and ye
shall lie down, and
none shall make
[you] afraid: and I
will rid evil
beasts out of the
land, neither shall
the sword go
through your land."
Leviticus 26:7 "And
ye shall chase your
enemies, and they
shall fall before
you by the sword."
Leviticus 26:8 "And
five of you shall
chase a hundred,
and a hundred of
you shall put ten
thousand to flight:
and your enemies
shall fall before
you by the sword."
Leviticus 26:9 "For
I will have respect
unto you, and make
you fruitful, and
multiply you, and
establish my
covenant with you."
Leviticus 26:10
"And ye shall eat
old store, and
bring forth the old
because of the
new."
Leviticus 26:11
"And I will set my
tabernacle among
you: and my soul
shall not abhor
you."
Leviticus 26:12
"And I will walk
among you, and will
be your God, and ye
shall be my
people."
Leviticus 26:13 "I
[am] the LORD your
God, which brought
you forth out of
the land of Egypt,
that ye should not
be their bondmen;
and I have broken
the bands of your
yoke, and made you
go upright."
Leviticus 26:14
"But if ye will not
hearken unto me,
and will not do all
these
commandments;"
Leviticus 26:15
"And if ye shall
despise my
statutes, or if
your soul abhor my
judgments, so that
ye will not do all
my commandments,
[but] that ye break
my covenant:"
Leviticus 26:16 "I
also will do this
unto you; I will
even appoint over
you terror,
consumption, and
the burning ague,
that shall consume
the eyes, and cause
sorrow of heart:
and ye shall sow
your seed in vain,
for your enemies
shall eat it."
Leviticus 26:17
"And I will set my
face against you,
and ye shall be
slain before your
enemies: they that
hate you shall
reign over you; and
ye shall flee when
none pursueth you."
Leviticus 26:18
"And if ye will not
yet for all this
hearken unto me,
then I will punish
you seven times
more for your
sins."
Leviticus 26:19
"And I will break
the pride of your
power; and I will
make your heaven as
iron, and your
earth as brass:"
Leviticus 26:20
"And your strength
shall be spent in
vain: for your land
shall not yield her
increase, neither
shall the trees of
the land yield
their fruits."
Leviticus 26:21
"And if ye walk
contrary unto me,
and will not
hearken unto me; I
will bring seven
times more plagues
upon you according
to your sins."
Leviticus 26:22 "I
will also send wild
beasts among you,
which shall rob you
of your children,
and destroy your
cattle, and make
you few in number;
and your [high]
ways shall be
desolate."
Leviticus 26:23
"And if ye will not
be reformed by me
by these things,
but will walk
contrary unto me;"
Leviticus 26:24
"Then will I also
walk contrary unto
you, and will
punish you yet
seven times for
your sins."
Leviticus 26:25
"And I will bring a
sword upon you,
that shall avenge
the quarrel of [my]
covenant: and when
ye are gathered
together within
your cities, I will
send the pestilence
among you; and ye
shall be delivered
into the hand of
the enemy."
Leviticus 26:26
"[And] when I have
broken the staff of
your bread, ten
women shall bake
your bread in one
oven, and they
shall deliver [you]
your bread again by
weight: and ye
shall eat, and not
be satisfied."
Leviticus 26:27
"And if ye will not
for all this
hearken unto me,
but walk contrary
unto me;"
Leviticus 26:28
"Then I will walk
contrary unto you
also in fury; and
I, even I, will
chastise you seven
times for your
sins."
Leviticus 26:29 "And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and
the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat."
Leviticus 26:30 "And I will destroy your high places, and cut
down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of
your idols, and my soul shall abhor you."
Leviticus 26:31 "And I will make your cities waste, and bring
your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the
savor of your sweet odors."
Leviticus 26:32 "And I will bring the land into desolation: and
your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it."
Leviticus 26:33 "And I will scatter you among the heathen, and
will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be
desolate, and your cities waste."
Leviticus 26:34 "Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as
long as it lieth desolate, and ye [be] in your enemies' land;
[even] then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths."
Leviticus 26:35 "As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest;
because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon
it."
Leviticus 26:36 "And upon them that are left [alive] of you I
will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their
enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and
they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall
when none pursueth."
Leviticus 26:37 "And they shall fall one upon another, as it
were before a sword, when none pursueth: and ye shall have no
power to stand before your enemies."
Leviticus 26:38 "And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the
land of your enemies shall eat you up."
Leviticus 26:39 "And they that are left of you shall pine away
in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the
iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them."
Leviticus 26:40 "If they shall confess their iniquity, and the
iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they
trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary
unto me;"
Leviticus 26:41 "And [that] I also have walked contrary unto
them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if
then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then
accept of the punishment of their iniquity:"
Leviticus 26:42 "Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob,
and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with
Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land."
Leviticus 26:43 "The land also shall be left of them, and shall
enjoy her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them: and
they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity: because,
even because they despised my judgments, and because their soul
abhorred my statutes."
Leviticus 26:44 "And yet for all that, when they be in the land
of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I
abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant
with them: for I [am] the LORD their God."
Leviticus 26:45 "But I will for their sakes remember the
covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the
land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be
their God: I [am] the LORD."
Leviticus 26:46 "These [are] the statutes and judgments and
laws, which the LORD made between him and the children of
Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses."
Leviticus 27
Leviticus Chapter 27
Leviticus 27:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,"
Leviticus 27:2 "Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto
them, When a man shall make a singular vow, the persons [shall
be] for the LORD by thy estimation."
Leviticus 27:3 "And thy estimation shall be of the male from
twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation
shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the
sanctuary
Leviticus 27:4 "And if it [be] a female, then thy estimation
shall be thirty shekels."
Leviticus 27:5 "And if [it be] from five years old even unto
twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male
twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels."
Leviticus 27:6 "And if [it be] from a month old even unto five
years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five
shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation [shall be]
three shekels of silver."
Leviticus 27:7 "And if [it be] from sixty years old and above;
if [it be] a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen
shekels, and for the female ten shekels."
Leviticus 27:8 "But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then
he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest
shall value him; according to his ability that vowed shall the
priest value him."
Leviticus 27:9 "And if [it be] a beast, whereof men bring an
offering unto the LORD, all that [any man] giveth of such unto
the LORD shall be holy."
Leviticus 27:10 "He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good
for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change
beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be
holy."
Leviticus 27:11 "And if [it be] any unclean beast, of which
they do not offer a sacrifice unto the LORD, then he shall
present the beast before the priest:"
Leviticus 27:12 "And the priest shall value it, whether it be
good or bad: as thou valuest it, [who art] the priest, so shall
it be."
Leviticus 27:13 "But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall
add a fifth [part] thereof unto thy estimation."
Leviticus 27:14 "And when a man shall sanctify his house [to
be] holy unto the LORD, then the priest shall estimate it,
whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so
shall it stand."
Leviticus 27:15 "And if he that sanctified it will redeem his
house, then he shall add the fifth [part] of the money of thy
estimation unto it, and it shall be his."
Leviticus 27:16 "And if a man shall sanctify unto the LORD
[some part] of a field of his possession, then thy estimation
shall be according to the seed thereof: a homer of barley seed
[shall be valued] at fifty shekels of silver."
Leviticus 27:17 "If he sanctify his field from the year of
jubilee, according to thy estimation it shall stand."
Leviticus 27:18 "But if he sanctify his field after the
jubilee, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money
according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the
jubilee, and it shall be abated from thy estimation."
Leviticus 27:19 "And if he that sanctified the field will in
any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth [part] of the
money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to
him."
Leviticus 27:20 "And if he will not redeem the field, or if he
have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed
any more."
Leviticus 27:21 "But the field, when it goeth out in the
jubilee, shall be holy unto the LORD, as a field devoted; the
possession thereof shall be the priest's."
Leviticus 27:22 "And if [a man] sanctify unto the LORD a field
which he hath bought, which [is] not of the fields of his
possession;"
Leviticus 27:23 "Then the priest shall reckon unto him the
worth of thy estimation, [even] unto the year of the jubilee:
and he shall give thine estimation in that day, [as] a holy
thing unto the LORD."
Leviticus 27:24 "In the year of the jubilee the field shall
return unto him of whom it was bought, [even] to him to whom
the possession of the land [did belong]."
Leviticus 27:25 "And all thy estimations shall be according to
the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the
shekel."
Leviticus 27:26 "Only the firstling of the beasts, which should
be the LORD'S firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether [it
be] ox, or sheep: it [is] the LORD'S."
Leviticus 27:27 "And if [it be] of an unclean beast, then he
shall redeem [it] according to thine estimation, and shall add
a fifth [part] of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it
shall be sold according to thy estimation."
Leviticus 27:28 "Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man
shall devote unto the LORD of all that he hath, [both] of man
and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or
redeemed: every devoted thing [is] most holy unto the LORD."
Leviticus 27:29 "None devoted, which shall be devoted of men,
shall be redeemed; [but] shall surely be put to death."
Leviticus 27:30 "And all the tithe of the land, [whether] of
the seed of the land, [or] of the fruit of the tree, [is] the
LORD'S: [it is] holy unto the LORD."
Leviticus 27:31 "And if a man will at all redeem [ought] of his
tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth [part] thereof." To
redeem the tithe of any thing would cost the redeemer 20%
extra. If you remember, this was the interest to pay when a
person had neglected their tithe, also.
Leviticus 27:32 "And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of
the flock, [even] of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the
tenth shall be holy unto the LORD."
Leviticus 27:33 "He shall not search whether it be good or bad,
neither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then
both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be
redeemed."
Leviticus 27:34 "These [are] the commandments, which the LORD
commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai."
