Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s.
Today is May 13, 2017 – in the 21 Century
May -- goddess Maia's month
Old French Mai
Old English Maius
Latin Maius "of Maia"
Latin Maius mensis "month of Maia"
Maius has always had 31 days.
Maia (meaning "the great one") is the Italic goddess of spring, the daughter of Faunus, and wife of Vulcan.
--------------------
Yehovah God has His own calendar, which is deleted from the world
We are now in the 2nd month of God called Ziv / Zif, 16th day
You can start your own scriptural calendar.
1 Kgs. 6 [1] And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Yehovah.
זִו - ziv - brightness, (figuratively) the month of flowers
***Make sure you change your Judaism calendars – The 2nd month is not Iyyar as Judaism and some Messianics state.
A few days in April / May
----------------
This is the fourth Sabbath of the 7 Sabbaths we were told to count
The "7 week" journey to meet God - again
How will you behave yourselves these 50 days? (Physically and Spiritually)
Remember: you are the "Temple of the Living God" and the "Light of the World"?
--------------------------
From slaves in Egypt to the people of God
A "7 week" journey to consider again,
To receive the giving of the Torah / Law (and the 10 commandments) and the Holy Spirit
----------------------------------
Lev.23 [15] And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven Sabbaths shall be complete: [16] Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto Yehovah.
[21] And ye shall proclaim on the selfsame day, that it may be an 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.
Spring Feast - Feasts of Weeks / Harvest / Pentecost – Sunday June 4th, 2017 – a Sabbath
50 days from First Fruits:
Judaism and some Messianics are counting the “omer”. They still cannot follow the scriptures correctly.
Remember we will be counting "weeks", Sabbaths not omers
An "omer" is a "sheaf" of barley
עמר omer
- A dry measure of 1/10 ephah (about
2 liters)
Feast of Weeks, Hag Sh'vu-ot - חַג שָׁבֻעֹת
Feast of Harvest Hag ha katseer - חַג הַקָּצִיר
Pentecost = 50 days
(A Sabbath) Sunday, (there are 2 Sabbaths in a row)
“Offering time”
Exod.23 [14] Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto Me in the year.
[15] Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month ha Aviv / Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:)
[16] And the feast of harvest, Weeks, Pentecost, the first fruits (wheat) of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field:
and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field. [17] Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before Lord Yehovah.
Also:
Deut.16 [16] Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before Yehovah thy God in the place which he shall choose;
in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles:
and they shall not appear before Yehovah empty:
[17] Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of Yehovah thy God which he hath given thee.
------------------------------------------------------
Lev. 23
[1] And Yehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of Yehovah, which ye shall proclaim to be holy
convocations, even these are my feasts.
[3] Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of Yehovah in all your dwellings.
[4] These are the feasts of Yehovah, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
[44] And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the feasts of Yehovah.
-------------------------------
Today’s topic:
In Torah only, I have listed some
It really is all Torah!
Thou shall not
You shall not
I will
not read all of this to you, you can read it yourselves
After reading
this study, I hope you see there are many more commandments then 10
---------------
Let’s
start:
First Thou shalt not
Gen.3:3 Ye shall not eat of it,
neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
Don't marry anyone that is not of the God of Israel
Gen.24 [3] And I will make thee swear by Yehovah, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:
The 10 Commandments
Exod.20
[1] And God spake all these words, saying,
[2] I am Yehovah thy God, which have brought thee out of the land
of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
[3] Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
[4] Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any
likeness of any thing that is in heaven above,
or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
[5] Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them,
nor serve them: for I Yehovah thy God am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and
fourth generation of them that hate me;
[6] And shewing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me, and keep my commandments.
[7] Thou shalt not take the name of Yehovah
thy God in vain; for Yehovah will not hold him guiltless
that taketh his name in vain.
[8] Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.[9] Six days shalt thou labour, and do
all thy work:[10] But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yehovah thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor
thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle,
nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
[11] For in six days Yehovah made heaven and earth, the
sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yehovah blessed the sabbath
day, and hallowed it.
[12] Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be
long upon the land which Yehovah thy God giveth
thee.
[13] Thou shalt not kill.
[14] Thou shalt not commit adultery.
[15] Thou shalt not steal.
[16] Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
[17] Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's
house, thou shalt not covet
thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his
maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
--------------------
----------------------
Exod.22
[18] Thou
shalt not suffer a witch to live.
[19] Whosoever
lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
[20] He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto Yehovah only, he shall
be utterly destroyed.
[21] Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were
strangers in the land of Egypt.
[22] Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
[23] If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I
will surely hear their cry;
[24] And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and
your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
[25] If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by
thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt
thou lay upon him usury.
[28] Thou shalt not revile the gods (God's judges), nor curse the ruler of
thy people.
[29] Thou shalt not delay to offer the
first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
[30] Likewise
shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with
his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
[31] And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh
that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
-----------------
Exod.23
[1] Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
[2] Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
[6] Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
[9] Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
[18] Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning.
[19] The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of Yehovah thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
[24] Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images.
-----------------
Exod.34 [25] Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
[26] The first of the firstfruits
of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of Yehovah thy God. Thou shalt
not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
--------------------
[1] And Yehovah
spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am Yehovah
your God.
[3] After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye
not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall
ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.
[4] Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: I
am Yehovah your God.
[5] Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do,
he shall live in them: I am Yehovah.
[6]
None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their
nakedness: I am Yehovah.
[7] The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt
thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
[8] The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy
father's nakedness.
[9] The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter
of thy mother, whether she be born at home, or born abroad, even their
nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
[10] The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter,
even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thine own nakedness.
[11] The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy
father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
[12] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she is
thy father's near kinswoman.
[13] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister: for
she is thy mother's near kinswoman.
[14] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou
shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.
[15] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is
thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
[16] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is
thy brother's nakedness.
[17] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter,
neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to
uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
[18] Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to
uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.
[19] Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness,
as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
[20] Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to
defile thyself with her.
[21] And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to
Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am Yehovah.
[22] Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is
abomination.
[23] Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith:
neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is
confusion.
[24] Defile not ye yourselves in any of these
things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out
before you:
[25] And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof
upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
[26] Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations;
neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
[27] (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which
were before you, and the land is defiled;)
[28] That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued
out the nations that were before you.
[29] For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the
souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
[30] Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one
of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye
defile not yourselves therein: I am Yehovah your God.
-----------------------
[1] And Yehovah
spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say
unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I Yehovah your God am holy.
[3] Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my
sabbaths: I am Yehovah your God.
[4] Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am Yehovah
your God.
[5] And if ye offer a sacrifice of peace offerings unto Yehovah, ye shall
offer it at your own will.
[6] It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow: and
if ought remain until the third day, it shall be burnt in the fire.
[7] And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable; it
shall not be accepted.
[8] Therefore every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because
he hath profaned the hallowed thing of Yehovah: and that soul shall be cut off
from among his people.
[9] And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly
reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy
harvest.
[10] And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather
every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I
am Yehovah your God.
[11] Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to
another.
[12] And ye shall not swear by my name falsely, neither shalt thou
profane the name of thy God: I am Yehovah.
[13] Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of
him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.
[14] Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the
blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am Yehovah.
[15] Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect
the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in
righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
[16] Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people:
neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour: I am Yehovah.
[17] Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any
wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
[18] Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of
thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am Yehovah.
[19] Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender
with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither
shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.
[20] And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid,
betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she
shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
[21] And he shall bring his trespass offering unto Yehovah, unto the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering.
[22] And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the
trespass offering before Yehovah for his sin which he hath done: and the sin
which he hath done shall be forgiven him.
[23] And when ye shall come into the land, and shall have planted all
manner of trees for food, then ye shall count the fruit thereof as
uncircumcised: three years shall it be as uncircumcised unto you: it shall not
be eaten of.
[24] But in the fourth year all the fruit thereof shall be holy to
praise Yehovah withal.
[25] And in the fifth year shall ye eat of the fruit thereof, that it
may yield unto you the increase thereof: I am Yehovah your God.
[26] Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use
enchantment, nor observe times.
[27] Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou
mar the corners of thy beard.
[28] Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor
print any marks upon you: I am Yehovah.
[29] Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest
the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
[30] Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am Yehovah.
[31] Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after
wizards, to be defiled by them: I am Yehovah your God.
[32] Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of
the old man, and fear thy God: I am Yehovah.
[33] And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex
him.
[34] But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one
born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in
the land of Egypt: I am Yehovah your God.
[35] Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight,
or in measure.
[36] Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall ye
have: I am Yehovah your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
[37] Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments,
and do them: I am Yehovah.
----------------------
[1] And Yehovah
spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Again,
thou shalt say to the children 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.
[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.
[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:
[5] Then I will set my face against that 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.
[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.
[7] Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am Yehovah your
God.
[8] And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am Yehovah which
sanctify you.
[9] For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely
put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon
him.
[10] And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even
he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the
adulteress shall surely be put to death.
[11] And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his
father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood
shall be upon them.
[12] And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall
surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon
them.
[13] If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of
them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their
blood shall be upon them.
[14] And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they
shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among
you.
[15] And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and
ye shall slay the beast.
[16] And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou
shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their
blood shall be upon them.
[17] And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his
mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a
wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath
uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
[18] And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall
uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered
the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their
people.
[19] And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister,
nor of thy father's sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear
their iniquity.
[20] And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his
uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
[21] And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing:
he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
[22] Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and
do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
[23] And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast
out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred
them.
[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 Yehovah
your God, which have separated you from other people.
[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.
[26] And ye shall be holy unto me: for I Yehovah am holy, and have
severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.
[27] A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a
wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their
blood shall be upon them.
--------------
Lev.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 Yehovah your God.
----------------
Lev.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.
[11] A jubile
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.
[37] Thou shalt not give him thy money
upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
[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:
[43] Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy
God.
ye shall not rule one over another
with rigour.
----------------
Don't curse the people of God
Num.22 [12] And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt
not go with them; thou shalt
not curse the people: for they are blessed.
----------------
Deut.6
[14] Ye shall not go after
other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you;
[15] (For Yehovah thy God is a jealous God among you) lest the anger of Yehovah
thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the
earth.
[16] Ye shall not tempt Yehovah your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.
[17] Ye shall diligently keep the commandments of Yehovah your God, and
his testimonies, and his statutes, which he hath commanded thee.
[18] And thou shalt do that which is right and good in the sight of Yehovah:
that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the good
land which Yehovah sware unto thy fathers,
[19] To cast out all thine enemies from before thee, as Yehovah hath
spoken.
-----------------
Deut.7 [1] When Yehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land whither
thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations
before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and
the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites,
and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;
[2] And when Yehovah thy God shall deliver them
before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly
destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them,
nor shew mercy unto them:
[3] Neither shalt thou make marriages with
them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor
his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.
[4] For they will turn away thy son from following me, that
they may serve other gods: so will the anger of Yehovah
be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.
[5] But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and
break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images
with fire.
[6] For thou art an holy people unto Yehovah thy God: Yehovah
thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people
that are upon the face of the earth.
[7] Yehovah did not set his love upon
you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye
were the fewest of all people:
[8] But because Yehovah loved you, and because he
would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath Yehovah brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed
you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
[9] Know therefore that Yehovah thy God,
he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant
and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand
generations;
[10] And repayeth them that hate him to
their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.
[11] Thou shalt therefore keep the
commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this
day, to do them.
[12] Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments,
and keep, and do them, that Yehovah thy God shall keep unto
thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware
unto thy fathers:
[13] And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will
also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy
wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
[14] Thou shalt be blessed above all people:
there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
[15] And Yehovah will take away from thee
all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.
[16] And thou shalt consume all the people which Yehovah thy God shall deliver thee; thine
eye shall have no pity upon them: neither shalt
thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare unto thee.
[17] If thou shalt say in thine
heart, These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess
them?
[18] Thou shalt not be afraid of them: but shalt well remember what Yehovah
thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt;
[19] The great temptations which thine
eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the
stretched out arm, whereby Yehovah thy God brought thee out:
so shall Yehovah thy God do unto all the
people of whom thou art afraid.
[20] Moreover Yehovah thy God will send the
hornet among them, until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, be
destroyed.
[21] Thou shalt not be affrighted at them:
for Yehovah thy God is among you, a mighty God and terrible.
[22] And Yehovah thy God will put out those
nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest
not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.
[23] But Yehovah thy God shall deliver them
unto thee, and shall destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they be
destroyed.
[24] And he shall deliver their kings into thine
hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from under
heaven: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, until thou have
destroyed them.
[25] The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor
take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein: for it is an abomination to Yehovah thy God.
[26] Neither shalt thou bring an abomination
into thine house, lest thou be a cursed thing like it: but
thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt
utterly abhor it; for it is a cursed thing.
---------------------
[1] These are the
statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe to do in the land, which Yehovah
God of thy fathers giveth thee to possess it, all the days that ye live upon
the earth.
[2] Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which
ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the
hills, and under every green tree:
[3] And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and
burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their
gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place.
[4] Ye shall not do so unto Yehovah your God.
[5] But unto the place which Yehovah your God shall choose out of all
your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and
thither thou shalt come:
[6] And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your
sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your hand, and your vows,
and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herds and of your
flocks:
[7] And there ye shall eat before Yehovah your God, and ye shall rejoice
in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein Yehovah thy
God hath blessed thee.
[8] Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every
man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
[9] For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which
Yehovah your God giveth you.
[10] But when ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which Yehovah
your God giveth you to inherit, and when he giveth you rest from all your
enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety;
[11] Then there shall be a place which Yehovah your God shall choose to
cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you;
your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering
of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto Yehovah:
[12] And ye shall rejoice before Yehovah your God, ye, and your sons,
and your daughters, and your menservants, and your maidservants, and the Levite
that is within your gates; forasmuch as he hath no part nor inheritance with
you.
[13] Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt offerings in
every place that thou seest:
[14] But in the place which Yehovah shall choose in one of thy tribes,
there thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, and there thou shalt do all that I
command thee.
[15] Notwithstanding thou mayest kill and eat flesh in all thy gates,
whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, according to the blessing of Yehovah thy God
which he hath given thee: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the
roebuck, and as of the hart.
[16] Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as
water.
[17] Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of
thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy herds or of thy flock, nor
any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill offerings, or heave
offering of thine hand:
[18] But thou must eat them before Yehovah thy God in the place which Yehovah
thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant,
and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates: and thou shalt
rejoice before Yehovah thy God in all that thou puttest thine hands unto.
[19] Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as
thou livest upon the earth.
[20] When Yehovah thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he hath promised
thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul longeth to eat
flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after.
[21] If the place which Yehovah thy God hath chosen to put his name
there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock,
which Yehovah hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat in
thy gates whatsoever thy soul lusteth after.
[22] Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them:
the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike.
[23] Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the
life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh.
[24] Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water.
[25] Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy
children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of Yehovah.
[26] Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt
take, and go unto the place which Yehovah shall choose:
[27] And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood,
upon the altar of Yehovah thy God: and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be
poured out upon the altar of Yehovah thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh.
[28] Observe and hear all these words which I command thee, that it may
go well with thee, and with thy children after thee for ever, when thou doest
that which is good and right in the sight of Yehovah thy God.
[29] When Yehovah thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee,
whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedest them, and dwellest in
their land;
[30] Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them,
after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after
their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do
likewise.
[31] Thou shalt not do so unto Yehovah thy God: for every abomination to
Yehovah, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons
and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.
[32] What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not
add thereto, nor diminish from it.
Deut.13 [1] If there
arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth
thee a sign or a wonder,
[2] And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods,
which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
[3] Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of
that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for Yehovah
your God proveth you, to know whether ye
love Yehovah your God with all your heart and with all your
soul.
[4] Ye shall walk after Yehovah your God,
and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve
him, and cleave unto him.
[5] And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death;
because he hath spoken to turn you away from Yehovah
your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of
the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which Yehovah
thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt
thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
[6] If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter,
or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine
own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which
thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
[7] Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh
unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the
other end of the earth;
[8] Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor
hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity
him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him:
[9] But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death,
and afterwards the hand of all the people.
[10] And thou shalt stone him with stones, that
he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away from Yehovah
thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of
bondage.
[11] And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such
wickedness as this is among you.
[12] If thou shalt hear say in one of thy
cities, which Yehovah thy God hath given thee to
dwell there, saying,
[13] Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you,
and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve
other gods, which ye have not known;
[14] Then shalt thou inquire, and make
search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain,
that such abomination is wrought among you;
[15] Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants
of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is
therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword.
[16] And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it
into the midst of the street thereof, and shalt
burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, for Yehovah thy God: and it shall be an
heap for ever; it shall not be built again.
[17] And there shall cleave nought of the
cursed thing to thine hand: that Yehovah may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and shew thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and
multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;
[18] When thou shalt hearken to the voice of Yehovah thy God, to keep all his commandments which I
command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of Yehovah thy God.
--------------------------
[1] Ye are the
children of Yehovah your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any
baldness between your eyes for the dead.
[2] for thou art an holy people unto Yehovah thy God, and Yehovah hath
chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that
are upon the earth.
[3] Thou shalt
not eat any abominable thing.
[4]
These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
[5] The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat,
and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
[6] And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into
two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
[7] Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of
them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney:
for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto
you.
[8] And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the
cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their
dead carcase.
[9] These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins
and scales shall ye eat:
[10] And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is
unclean unto you.
[11] Of all clean birds ye shall eat.
[12] But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and ossifrage,
and the ospray,
[13] And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
[14] And every raven after his kind,
[15] And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after
his kind,
[16] The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
[17] And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
[18] And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and
the bat.
[19] And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they
shall not be eaten.
[20] But of all clean fowls ye may eat.
[21] Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: thou shalt give
it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest
sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto Yehovah thy God. Thou
shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
[22] Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field
bringeth forth year by year.
[23] And thou shalt eat before Yehovah thy God, in the place which he
shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and
of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou
mayest learn to fear Yehovah thy God always.
[24] And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to
carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which Yehovah thy God shall
choose to set his name there, when Yehovah thy God hath blessed thee:
[25] Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine
hand, and shalt go unto the place which Yehovah thy God shall choose:
[26] And thou shalt bestow that money for whatsoever thy soul lusteth
after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for
whatsoever thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat there before Yehovah thy God,
and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thine household,
[27] And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not forsake
him; for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee.
[28] At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of
thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:
[29] And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with
thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within
thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Yehovah thy God may
bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.
--------------------------
Deut.15 [6] For Yehovah
thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee:
and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but
thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt
reign over many nations,but
they shall not reign over thee.
[7] If there
be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy
land which Yehovah thy God giveth
thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine
hand from thy poor brother:[8] But thou shalt open thine hand wide
unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient
for his need, in that which he wanteth.
[9] Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The
seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine
eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest
him nought; and he cry unto Yehovah
against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
[10] Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing Yehovah thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest
thine hand unto.
[13] And
when thou sendest him out free from thee,
thou shalt not let him go away empty:[11]
For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee,
saying, Thou shalt open thine
hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
[12] And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman ,
be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
[13] And when thou sendest him out free from thee,
thou shalt not let him go away empty:
[14] Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of
thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith Yehovah thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
[15] And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and Yehovah thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee
this thing to day.
[21] And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or
blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt
not sacrifice it unto Yehovah thy God.
[23] Only thou shalt not eat
the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as
water.
----------------------------
Deut.16 [21] Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of
any trees near unto the altar of Yehovah thy God,
which thou shalt make thee.
[19] Thou
shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither
take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words
of the righteous.
------------------------------
Deut.17
[1] Thou shalt not sacrifice unto Yehovah
thy God any bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavouredness:
for that is an abomination unto Yehovah thy God.
[2] If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which Yehovah thy God giveth
thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of Yehovah thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
[3] And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the
sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
[4] And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and inquired
diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such
abomination is wrought in Israel:
[5] Then shalt thou bring forth that man or
that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that
man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till
they die.
[6] At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is
worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not
be put to death.
[7] The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to
death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So thou shalt
put the evil away from among you.
[8] If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood
and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters
of controversy within thy gates: then shalt
thou arise, and get thee up into the place which Yehovah
thy God shall choose;
[9] And thou shalt come unto the priests the
Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and inquire; and they
shall shew thee the sentence of judgment:
[10] And thou shalt do according to the sentence,
which they of that place which Yehovah shall
choose shall shew thee; and thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform
thee:
[11] According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee,
and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt
not decline from the sentence which they shall shew
thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.
[12] And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto
the priest that standeth to minister there before Yehovah thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall
die: and thou shalt put away the evil from
Israel.
[13] And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more
presumptuously.
----------------------------------------
Deut.18 [9] When thou art come into the land which Yehovah
thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of
those nations.
[22] When a prophet speaketh in the
name of Yehovah, if the thing follow
not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which Yehovah
hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
---------------------------------------
Deut.19 [14] Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of
old time have set in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land that Yehovah
thy God giveth thee to possess it.
--------------------------------------
Deut.22
[1] Thou shalt not see the brother's ox or his sheep go astray,
and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case
bring them again unto thy brother.
[2] And if thy brother be not nigh unto thee, or if thou know him not,
then thou shalt bring it unto thine own house, and it shall be with thee until thy
brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it
to him again.
[3] In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou do with his raiment; and with all lost thing
of thy brother's, which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt
thou do likewise: thou mayest not hide thyself.
[4] Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or
his ox fall down by the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again.
[5] The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth
unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for
all that do so are abomination unto Yehovah thy God.
[6] If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way in any tree, or
on the ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, and the dam sitting upon
the young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take
the dam with the young:
[7] But thou shalt in any wise let the dam go,
and take the young to thee; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.
[8] When thou buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that thou bring
not blood upon thine house, if any man fall from
thence.
[9] Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast
sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled.
[10] Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an
ass together.
[11] Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen
and linen together.
--------------------------------------
Deut.23 [1] He that is
wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into
the congregation of Yehovah.
[2] A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Yehovah; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter
into the congregation of Yehovah.
[3] An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of Yehovah; even to their tenth generation shall they not
enter into the congregation of Yehovah for ever:
[4] Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when
ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son
of Beor of Pethor of
Mesopotamia, to curse thee.
[5]
Nevertheless Yehovah thy God would not hearken
unto Balaam; but Yehovah thy God turned the curse
into a blessing unto thee, because Yehovah thy God
loved thee.
[6] Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
[7] Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou shalt
not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a stranger
in his land.
[8] The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the
congregation of Yehovah in their third generation.
[15] Thou shalt not deliver unto his
master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:
[16] He shall dwell with thee, even among you, in that place
which he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh
him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
[17] There shall
be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
[18] Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog,
into the house of Yehovah thy God for any vow: for even both these are
abomination unto Yehovah thy God.
[19] Thou shalt not lend upon usury to
thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury
of any thing that is lent upon usury:
[20] Unto a stranger thou mayest
lend upon usury; but unto thy brother thou shalt
not lend upon usury: that Yehovah thy God may bless thee in
all that thou settest thine
hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess
it.
[21] When thou shalt vow a vow
unto Yehovah thy God, thou shalt
not slack to pay it: for Yehovah thy God will surely require
it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
[23] That which
is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; even a freewill offering,
according as thou hast vowed unto Yehovah thy God, which thou hast promised
with thy mouth.
[24] When thou comest into thy neighbour's vineyard, then thou mayest
eat grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put any in thy vessel.
[25] When thou comest into the
standing corn of thy neighbour, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thine
hand; but thou shalt not move a sickle unto
thy neighbour's standing corn.
--------------------------------------
Deut.24 [1] When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come
to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath
found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement,
and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
[2] And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another
man's wife.
[3] And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of
divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband
die, which took her to be his wife;
[4] Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to
be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before Yehovah: and thou shalt
not cause the land to sin, which Yehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
[5]
When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he
be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall
cheer up his wife which he hath taken.
[6] No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for
he taketh a man's life to pledge.
[7] If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of
Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall
die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.
[8] Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently,
and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you: as I
commanded them, so ye shall observe to do.
[9] Remember what Yehovah thy God did unto Miriam by the way, after that
ye were come forth out of Egypt.
[11] Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man
to whom thou dost lend shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee.
[12] And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge:
[13] In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun
goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall
be righteousness unto thee before Yehovah thy God.
[14] Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy,
whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land within
thy gates:
[15] At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go
down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry
against thee unto Yehovah, and it be sin unto thee.
[16] The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither
shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to
death for his own sin.
[17] Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the
fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:
[18] But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and Yehovah
thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
[19] When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot
a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the
stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that Yehovah thy God may bless
thee in all the work of thine hands.
[20] When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the
boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
[21] When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not
glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for
the widow.
[22] And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt:
therefore I command thee to do this thing.
--------------------------------------
Deut.25 [4] Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the
corn.
[13] Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
[14] Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures,
a great and a small.
[19] Therefore it shall be, when Yehovah
thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which Yehovah thy God giveth
thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt
blot out the remembrance of Amalek
from under heaven; thou shalt
not forget it.
--------------------------------------
[1] And it shall
come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of Yehovah thy
God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day,
that Yehovah thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:
[2] And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if
thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Yehovah thy God.
[3] Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the
field.
[4] Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground,
and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy
sheep.
[5] Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
[6] Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be
when thou goest out.
[7] Yehovah shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be
smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee
before thee seven ways.
[8] Yehovah shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and
in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land
which Yehovah thy God giveth thee.
[9] Yehovah shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath
sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of Yehovah thy God, and
walk in his ways.
[10] And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the
name of Yehovah; and they shall be afraid of thee.
[11] And Yehovah shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy
body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the
land which Yehovah sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
[12] Yehovah shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give
the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand:
and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
[13] And Yehovah shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou
shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto
the commandments of Yehovah thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe
and to do them:
[14] And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command
thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to
serve them.
[15] But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice
of Yehovah thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes
which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and
overtake thee:
[16] Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the
field.
[17] Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.
[18] Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land,
the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.
[19] Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be
when thou goest out.
[20] Yehovah shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all
that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until
thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast
forsaken me.
[21] Yehovah shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have
consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.
[22] Yehovah shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and
with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with
blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
[23] And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth
that is under thee shall be iron.
[24] Yehovah shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from
heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
[25] Yehovah shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou
shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt
be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.
[26] And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto
the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away.
[27] Yehovah will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the
emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be
healed.
[28] Yehovah shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and
astonishment of heart:
[29] And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness,
and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and
spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.
[30] Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou
shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a
vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.
[31] Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat
thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and
shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and
thou shalt have none to rescue them.
[32] Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and
thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and
there shall be no might in thine hand.
[33] The fruit of thy land, and all thy labours, shall a nation which
thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed alway:
[34] So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou
shalt see.
[35] Yehovah shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore
botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy
head.
[36] Yehovah shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over
thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there
shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
[37] And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword,
among all nations whither Yehovah shall lead thee.
[38] Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but
little in; for the locust shall consume it.
[39] Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink
of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them.
[40] Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou
shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive shall cast his fruit.
[41] Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them;
for they shall go into captivity.
[42] All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.
[43] The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high;
and thou shalt come down very low.
[44] He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be
the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
[45] Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue
thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not
unto the voice of Yehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes
which he commanded thee:
[46] And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon
thy seed for ever.
[47] Because thou servedst not Yehovah thy God with joyfulness, and with
gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;
[48] Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which Yehovah shall send
against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all
things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed
thee.
[49] Yehovah shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of
the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not
understand;
[50] A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person
of the old, nor shew favour to the young:
[51] And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy
land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn,
wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he
have destroyed thee.
[52] And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and
fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he
shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which Yehovah thy
God hath given thee.
[53] And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy
sons and of thy daughters, which Yehovah thy God hath given thee, in the siege,
and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:
[54] So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his
eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and
toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave:
[55] So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his
children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege, and
in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy
gates.
[56] The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure
to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness,
her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and
toward her daughter,
[57] And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and
toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of
all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall
distress thee in thy gates.
[58] If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are
written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THEYehovah
THY GOD;
[59] Then Yehovah will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of
thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and
of long continuance.
[60] Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which
thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
[61] Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the
book of this law, them will Yehovah bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
[62] And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of
heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of Yehovah thy
God.
[63] And it shall come to pass, that as Yehovah rejoiced over you to do
you good, and to multiply you; so Yehovah will rejoice over you to destroy you,
and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither
thou goest to possess it.
[64] And Yehovah shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end
of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which
neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.
[65] And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the
sole of thy foot have rest: but Yehovah shall give thee there a trembling heart,
and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:
[66] And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear
day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:
[67] In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even
thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart
wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt
see.
[68] And Yehovah shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the
way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye
shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy
you.
-------------------
In closing,
Deut.29 [1]
These are the words of the covenant, which Yehovah commanded Moses to make with
the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside
the covenant which he made with them in Horeb. (beside the 10 commandments)
Simply put:
Don’t do it!
Shabbat Shalom
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will explain how to keep the Sabbath
This is how simple it is:
Question: So why are we here today?
Answer: We were told to remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy.
Sabbath is the “4th Commandment” 0f the 10 Commandments
Today is the rest of the holy Sabbath unto Yehovah
I will explain the Sabbath day from Scripture, the 7th day.
The Sabbath is not a service for an hour and a half, but a 24 hour period on the seventh day.
Not any day you pick.
---------------
Gen.2 [1] Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
[2] And on the seventh day God ended his work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.
[3] And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all His work which God created and made.
-------------
Lev. 23 [32] … from even (sunset) unto even (sunset), shall ye celebrate your Sabbath.
The Sabbath is the 4th Commandment of the covenant given to us at Mount Sinai in the 3rd month, Sivan
The 10 commandments are in Exod. 20 and Deut. 5 - if you just know this, you will know more than most ministers.
זכר Remember
zâkar - zaw-kar' - A primitive root; properly to mark (so as to be recognized), that is, to remember; by implication to mention; make mention of, be mindful, recount, record (-er), remember, make to be remembered, bring (call, come, keep, put) to (in) remembrance, be still, think on, well.
Ex. 20 [8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
[9] Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
[10] But the seventh day is the Sabbath of Yehovah thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
[11] For in six days Yehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yehovah blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.
--------
Isa. 58 [13] If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of Yehovah, honorable; and shalt honor him,
1 - not doing thine (your) own ways
2 - nor finding thine (your) own pleasure
3 - nor speaking thine (your) own words:
[14] Then shalt thou delight thyself in Yehovah; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of Yehovah hath spoken it.
------------
Lev. 23 [3] Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an "holy convocation"; ye shall do no work therein: it is the Sabbath of Yehovah in all your dwellings.
Dwelling:מושׁב môshâv - seat, assembly, dwelling-place, dwelling, your situation, location, (at) time of dwelling.
All Sabbaths are "holy convocations, a miqra kodesh"
Lev.23
[1] And Yehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, concerning the feasts of Yehovah, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are My feasts.
[3] Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the Sabbath of Yehovah in all your dwellings.
[4] These are the feasts of Yehovah, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.
מקרא miqra: convocation, convoking, reading, a calling together, sacred assembly, something called out, that is, a public meeting (the act, the persons, or the place); also a rehearsal
קדשׁ kodesh: a sacred place or thing; consecrated, dedicated, hallowed, holiness, saint, sanctuary, apartness, sacredness, separateness, apartness, sacredness, holiness: All to the God of Israel.
------------
Buying and selling is evil on the Sabbath.
Neh. 13 [16] There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
[17] Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, what evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the Sabbath day?
