and of oxen, in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his
name may dwell there.
16:3. Thou shalt not eat with it leavened bread: seven days shalt thou
eat without leaven, the bread of affliction, because thou camest out of
Egypt in fear: that thou mayst remember the day of thy coming out of
Egypt, all the days of thy life.

shall any of the flesh of that which was sacrificed the first day in the
evening remain until morning.
16:5. Thou mayst not immolate the phase in any one of thy cities, which
the Lord thy God will give thee:

name may dwell there: thou shalt immolate the phase in the evening, at
the going down of the sun, at which time thou camest out of Egypt.

and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the
Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger and the fatherless,
and the widow, who abide with you: in the place which the Lord thy God
shall choose, that his name may dwell there:

and thy daughter, thy manservant, and thy maidservant, the Levite also
and the stranger, and the fatherless and the widow that are within thy
gates.
16:15. Seven days shalt thou celebrate feasts to the Lord thy God in the
place which the Lord shall choose: and the Lord thy God will belss thee
in all thy fruits, and in every work of thy hands, and thou shalt be in
joy.
16:16. Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord
thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened
bread, in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. No one
shall appear with his hands empty before the Lord:
16:17. But every one shall offer according to what he hath, according to
the blessing of the Lord his God, which he shall give him.
