shall do no servile work therein. And seven days you shall offer
holocausts to the Lord.

congregation. You shall do no servile work therein.

and most holy, and shall offer on them oblations to the Lord: holocausts

things that you offer by vow, or which you shall give to the Lord
voluntarily.
23:39. So from the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you shall
have gathered in all the fruits of your land, you shall celebrate the
feast of the Lord seven days. On the first day and the eighth shall be a
sabbath: that is a day of rest.

fairest tree, and branches of palm trees, and boughs of thick trees, and

It shall be an everlasting ordinance in your generations. In the seventh
month shall you celebrate this feast.
23:42. And you shall dwell in bowers seven days. Every one that is of
the race of Israel, shall dwell in tabernacles:

to dwell in tabernacles, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt. I
am the Lord your God.

of Israel.
Leviticus Chapter 24
The oil for the lamps. The loaves of proposition. The punishment of
blasphemy.
24:1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
24:2. Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the
finest and clearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
24:3. Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the
covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the
Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
24:4. They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord
continually.
24:5. Thou shalt take also fine flour, and shalt bake twelve loaves
thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf.
24:6. And thou shalt set them six and six, one against another, upon the
most clean table before the Lord.
24:7. And thou shalt put upon them the clearest frankincense, that the
bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
24:8. Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord: being
received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
24:9. And they shall be Aaron's and his sons', that they may eat them in
the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by
a perpetual right.
