*
And assemble all the company at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation .
*
So Moses did as the Lord had commanded him , &
amp ;
the companie was assembled at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation .
*
Then Moses said vnto the company ,
This is the thing which the Lorde hath commaunded to doe .
*
And Moses brought Aaron and his sonnes ,
and washed them with water ,
*
And put vpon him the coate ,
and girded him with a girdle , &
amp ;
clothed him with the robe ,
and put the Ephod on him ,
which he girded with the broydred garde of the Ephod ,
and bounde it vnto him therewith .
*
After he put the brest plate thereon ,
and put in the breast plate the Vrim and the Thummim .
*
And he put the mitre upon his head ;
also upon the mitre , [

upon his forefront ,
did he put the golden plate ,

And Moses took the anointing oil ,
and anointed the (

was ]
therein ,
and sanctified them .
*
And sprinkled thereof vpon the altar seuen times ,
and anointed the altar and all his instruments ,
and the lauer ,
and his foote ,
to sanctifie them )
*
And he powred of the anointing oyle vpon Aarons head ,
and anointed him ,
to sanctifie him .
*
After ,
Moses brought Aarons sonnes ,
and put coates vpon them ,
and girded them with girdles ,
and put bonets vpon their heades ,
as the Lorde had commanded Moses .
*
Then he brought the bullocke for the sinne offring ,
and Aaron and his sonnes put their handes vpon the head of the bullocke for the sinne offring .
*
And he slew [
it ];
and Moses took the blood ,
and put [

to make reconciliation upon it .
*
Then he tooke all the fatte that was vpon the inwardes ,
and the kall of the liuer and the two kidneis ,
with their fat ,
which Moses burned vpon the Altar .
*
But the bullock ,
and his (

his flesh ,
and his dung ,
he burnt with fire without the camp ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
Also hee brought the ram for the burnt offring ,
and Aaron and his sonnes put their hands vpon the head of the ramme .
*
So Moses killed it ,
and sprinkled the blood vpon the Altar round about ,
*
And Moses cut the ram in pieces , &
amp ;
burnt the head with the pieces ,
and the fat ,
*
And washed the inwardes and the legges in water :
so Moses burnt the ram euery whit vpon ye Altar :
for it was a burnt offring for a sweete sauour ,
which was made by fire vnto the Lord ,
as the Lord had commanded Moses .
*
After ,
he brought the other ram ,
the ram of consecrations ,
and Aaron and his sonnes layed their handes vpon the head of the ram ,
*
And he (
note :)
Moses did this because the priests were not yet established in their office .(:
note )
slew [
it ];
and Moses took of the blood of it ,
and put [
it ]
upon the tip of Aaron '
s right ear ,
and upon the thumb of his right hand ,
and upon the great toe of his right foot .
*
Then Moses brought Aarons sonnes ,
and put of the blood on the lap of their right eares ,
and vpon the thumbes of their right handes ,
and vpon the great toes of their right feete ,
and Moses sprinckled the rest of the blood vpon the Altar round about .
*
And he tooke the fat &
amp ;
the rumpe and all the fat that was vpon the inwards ,
and the kall of the liuer ,
and the two kidneis with their fat , &
amp ;
the right shoulder .
*
Also he tooke of ye basket of ye vnleauened bread that was before the Lorde ,
one vnleauened cake and a cake of oiled bread , &
amp ;
one wafer ,
and put them on the fat , &
amp ;
vpon the right shoulder .
*
So hee put all in Aarons handes ,
and in his sonnes handes ,
and shooke it to and fro before the Lord .
*
After ,
Moses tooke the out of their hands , &
amp ;
burnt them vpon the altar for a burnt offring :
for these were consecrations for a sweete sauour which were made by fire vnto the Lord .
*
Likewise Moses tooke the breast of the ram of consecrations , &
amp ;
shooke it to and fro before the Lord :
for it was Moses portion ,
as the Lord had commanded Moses .
*
Also Moses tooke of the anointing oyle ,
and of the blood which was vpon the Altar ,
and sprinkled it vpon Aaron ,
vpon his garments ,
and vpon his sonnes ,
and on his sonnes garments with him :
so hee sanctified Aaron ,
his garments , &
amp ;
his sonnes ,
and his sonnes garments with him .
*
And Moses said unto Aaron and to his sons ,
Boil the flesh [
at ]
the door of the (

At the door of the court .(:
note )
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 .
*
But that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread ,
shall ye burne with fire .
*
And ye shall not depart from the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation seuen dayes ,
vntill the dayes of your consecrations bee at an ende :
for seuen dayes ,
saide the Lorde ,
shall hee consecrate you ,
*
As hee hath done this day :
so the Lorde hath commanded to doe ,
to make an atonement for you .
*
Therefore shall yee abide at the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation day and night ,
seuen dayes ,
and shall keepe the watch of the Lord ,
that ye dye not :
for so I am commanded .
*
So Aaron and his sons did all things which the LORD commanded by the (

By commission given to Moses .(:
note )
hand of Moses .
*
And it came to pass on the (

After their consecration :
for the seven days before ,
the priests were consecrated .(:

eighth day , [
that ]
Moses called Aaron and his sons ,
and the elders of Israel ;
*
And he said unto Aaron ,

and offers the four principal sacrifices ,
the burnt offering ,
the sin offering ,
the peace offering ,
and the meat offering .(:

and a ram for a burnt offering ,
without blemish ,
and offer [
them ]
before the LORD .
*
And vnto the children of Israel thou shalt speake ,
saying ,
Take yee an hee goate for a sinne offring ,
and a calfe ,
and a lambe ,
both of a yeere olde ,
without blemish for a burnt offring :
*
Also a bullock ,
and a ramme for peace offringes ,
to offer before the Lorde ,
and a meate offring mingled with oyle :
for to day the Lorde will appeare vnto you .
*
And they brought [
that ]
which Moses commanded before the tabernacle of the congregation :
and all the congregation drew near and stood before the (

Before the altar where his glory appeared .(:

LORD .
* (
For Moses had sayde ,
This is the thing ,
which the Lord commaunded that ye should do ,
and the glory of the Lord shal appeare vnto you )
*
And Moses said unto Aaron ,
Go unto the altar ,
and offer thy sin offering ,
and thy burnt offering ,
and make an atonement for (

Read for the understanding of this peace , (
Heb_4
:5 ,

:27 ).(:
note )
thyself ,
and for the people :
and offer the offering of the people ,
and make an atonement for them ;
as the LORD commanded .
*
Aaron therefore went vnto the Altar ,
and killed the calfe of the sinne offring ,
which was for himselfe .
*
And the sonnes of Aaron brought ye blood vnto him ,
and he dipt his finger in the blood ,
and put it vpon the hornes of the Altar ,
and powred the rest of the blood at the foote of the Altar .
*
But the fat ,
and the kidneys ,
and the caul above the liver of the sin offering ,
he (
note :)
That is ,
he laid them in order ,
and so they were burnt when the Lord sent down fire .(:
note )
burnt upon the altar ;
as the LORD commanded Moses .
*
The flesh also and the hide hee burnt with fire without the hoste .
*
After ,
he slewe the burnt offering ,
and Aarons sonnes brought vnto him the blood ,
which he sprinckled round about vpon the Altar .
*
Also they brought the burnt offring vnto him with the pieces thereof ,
and the head ,
and he burnt them vpon the Altar .
*
And he did wash the inwards and the legs ,
and (
note :)
All this must be understood of the preparation of the sacrifices which were burnt after , (
Lev_9
:24 ).(:
note )
burnt [
them ]
upon the burnt offering on the altar .
*
Then he offred the peoples offring ,
and tooke a goate ,
which was the sinne offring for the people ,
and slewe it :
and offred it for sinne ,
as the first :
*
So he offred the burnt offring ,
and prepared it ,
according to the maner .
*
He presented also the meate offring , &
amp ;
filled his hand thereof ,
and beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning he burnt this vpon the Altar .
*
He slewe also the bullock ,
and the ram for the peace offrings ,
that was for the people ,
and Arons sonnes brought vnto him the blood ,
which he sprinkled vpon the Altar round about ,
*
With the fat of the bullocke ,
and of the ram ,
the rumpe ,
and that which couereth the inwards and the kidneis ,
and the kall of the liuer .
*
So they layed the fat vpon the breasts ,
and he burnt the fat vpon the Altar .
*
And the (
note :)
Of the bullock and the ram .(:
note )
breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved [
for ]
a wave offering before the LORD ;
as Moses commanded .
*
And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people ,
and blessed them ,
and (
note :)
Because the altar was near the sanctuary ,
which was the upper end ,
therefore he is said to come down .(:
note )
came down from offering of the sin offering ,
and the burnt offering ,
and peace offerings .
*
And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation ,
and came out ,
and (
note :)
Or prayed for the people .(:
note )
blessed the people :
and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people .
*
And there came a fire out from the Lord and consumed vpon the Altar the burnt offring and the fatte :
which when all the people sawe ,
they gaue thankes ,
and fell on their faces .
*
And Nadab and Abihu ,
the sons of Aaron ,
took either of them his censer ,
and put fire therein ,
and put incense thereon ,
and offered (
note :)
Not taken from the altar ,
which was sent from heaven ,
and endured till the captivity of Babylon .(:
note )
strange fire before the LORD ,
which he commanded them not .
*
Therefore a fire went out from the Lord , &
amp ;
deuoured them :
so they dyed before the Lord .
*
Then Moses said unto Aaron ,
This [
is it ]
that the LORD spake ,
saying ,
I will be (
note :)
I will punish them that serve me in other ways than I have commanded ,
not sparing the chief ,
that the people may fear and praise my judgments .(:
note )
sanctified in them that come nigh me ,
and before all the people I will be glorified .
And Aaron held his peace .
*
And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan the sonnes of Vzziel ,
the vncle of Aaron , &
amp ;
saide vnto them ,
Come neere ,
cary your brethre from before the Sanctuarie out of the hoste .
*
Then they went ,
and caried them in their coates out of the host ,
as Moses had comaunded .
*
And Moses said unto Aaron ,
and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar ,
his sons , (
note :)
As though you lamented for them ,
preferring your carnal affection to God '
s just judgment ; (
Lev_19
:18 ;
Deu_14
:1 ).(:
note )
Uncover not your heads ,
neither rend your clothes ;
lest ye die ,
and lest wrath come upon all the people :
but let your brethren ,

bewail the burning which the LORD hath In destroying Nadab and Abihu the chief ,
and menacing the rest ,

kindled .
*
And go not yee out from the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation ,
least ye dye :
for the anointing oyle of the Lorde is vpon you :
and they did according to Moses commaundement .
*
And the Lorde spake vnto Aaron ,
saying ,
*
Thou shalt not drinke wine nor strong drinke ,
thou ,
nor thy sonnes with thee ,
when yee come into the Tabernacle of the Congregation ,
lest ye die :
this is an ordinance for euer throughout your generations ,
*
That ye may put difference betweene the holy and the vnholy ,
and betweene the cleane and the vncleane ,
*
And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lorde hath commaunded them by the hand of Moses .
*
Then Moses saide vnto Aaron and vnto Eleazar and to Ithamar his sonnes that were left ,
Take the meate offring that remaineth of the offrings of the Lorde ,
made by fire ,
and eate it without leauen beside ye altar :
for it is most holy :
*
And ye shall eate it in the holy place ,
because it is thy duetie and thy sonnes duety of the offringes of the Lorde made by fire :
for so I am commannded .
*
And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place ;
thou ,
and thy sons ,
and thy (
note :)
For the breast and shoulders of the peace offerings might be brought to their families ,
so that their daughters might eat of them ,
as also of the offerings of first fruits ,
the first born ,
and the Easter lamb , (
Lev_22
:12-13 ).(:
note )
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 .
*
The heaue shoulder ,
and the shaken breast shall they bring with the offringes made by fire of the fat ,
to shake it to and fro before the Lord ,
and it shalbe thine and thy sonnes with thee by a lawe for euer ,
as the Lord hath commaunded .
*
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 ] (
note :)
And not consumed as Nadab and Abihu .(:
note )
left [
alive ],
saying ,
*
Wherfore haue ye not eaten the sinne offring in the holy place ,
seeing it is most Holie ? &
amp ;
God hath giuen it you ,
to beare the iniquitie of the Congregation ,
to make an atonement for them before the Lorde .
*
Beholde ,
the blood of it was not brought within the holy place :
ye should haue eaten it in the holy place ,
as I commaunded .
*
And Aaron said unto Moses ,
Behold ,
this day (
note :)
That is ,
Nadab and Abihu .(:
note )
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 to day ,
should it have been accepted in the sight of the LORD ?
*
And when Moses heard [
that ],
he was (
note :)
Moses bore with his infirmity ,
considering his great sorrow ,
but does not leave an example to forgive them that maliciously transgress the commandment of God .(:

content .
*
After ,
the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron ,
saying vnto them ,
*
Speak unto the children of Israel ,
saying ,
These [
are ]
the beasts which ye (

Or ,
of which ye may eat .(:
note )

are ]
on the earth .
*
Whatsoever parteth the (

Others neither chew the cud ,
nor have the hoof cleft ,
and the fourth both chew the cud and have the hoof divided ,
which may be eaten .(:

and is clovenfooted , [
and ]
cheweth the cud ,
among the beasts ,
that shall ye eat .
*
But of them that chewe the cud ,
or deuide the hoofe onely ,
of them yee shall not eate :
as the camel ,
because he cheweth the cud , &
amp ;
deuideth not ye hoofe ,
he shall be vncleane vnto you .
*
Likewise the conie ,
because he cheweth the cud and deuideth not the hoofe ,
he shall bee vncleane to you .
*
Also the hare ,
because he cheweth the cud ,
and deuideth not the hoofe ,
he shalbe vncleane to you .
*
And the swine ,
because he parteth ye hoofe and is clouen footed ,
but cheweth not the cud ,
he shalbe vncleane to you .
*
Of their (

and their carcase shall ye not touch ;
they [

These shall ye eate ,
of all that are in the waters :
whatsoeuer hath finnes &

in the seas ,
or in the riuers ,
them shal ye eate .

And all that have not fins and scales in the seas ,
and in the rivers ,
of all that (

They ,
I say ,
shalbe an abomination to you :
ye shall not eate of their flesh ,
but shall abhorre their carkeis .
*
Whatsoeuer hath not fins nor skales in the waters ,
that shalbe abomination vnto you .
*
These shal ye haue also in abomination among the foules ,
they shal not be eaten :
for they are an abomination ,
the egle ,
and the goshauke ,
and the osprey :

Also the vultur , &

And all rauens after their kinde :

and the night crowe ,
and the seameaw ,
and the hauke after his kinde :

Also the redshanke and the pelicane ,

The storke also ,
the heron after his kinde ,
and the lapwing ,
and the backe :

Also euery foule that creepeth &

goeth vpon all foure ,
such shalbe an abomination vnto you .
*
Yet these shal ye eate :
of euery foule that creepeth ,
and goeth vpon all foure which haue their feete and legs all of one to leape withal vpon the earth ,

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 ,

But al other foules that creepe &

they shalbe abomination vnto you .

For by such ye shalbe polluted :
whosoeuer toucheth their carkeis ,
shalbe vncleane vnto the euening .
*
And whosoever (

Out of the camp .(:

beareth [

of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes ,
and be unclean until the even .

Euery beast that hath clawes deuided ,
and is not clouen footed ,
nor cheweth the cud ,
such shalbe vncleane vnto you :
euery one that toucheth them ,
shalbe vncleane .

And whatsoeuer goeth vpon his pawes among all maner beastes that goeth on all foure ,
such shalbe vncleane vnto you :
who so doth touch their carkeis shalbe vncleane vntil the euen .
*
And he that beareth their carkeis ,
shal wash his clothes ,
and be vncleane vntill the euen :
for such shalbe vncleane vnto you .
*
These also [
shall be ]
unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth ;
the weasel ,
and the mouse ,
and the (

The green frog that sits on the bushes .(:
note )
tortoise after his kind ,
*
Also the rat ,
and the lizard ,
and the chameleon ,
and the stellio ,
and the molle .

These shall be vncleane to you among all that creepe :
whosoeuer doeth touch them when they be dead ,
shalbe vncleane vntil the euen .
*
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 (
note :)
As a bottle or bag .(:

skin ,
or sack ,
whatsoever vessel [
it be ],
wherein [

work is done ,
it must be put into water ,
and it shall be unclean until the even ;
so it shall be cleansed .

But euery earthen vessel ,
whereinto any of them falleth ,
whatsoeuer is within it shalbe vncleane ,
and ye shal breake it .
*
Al meate also that shalbe eaten ,
if any such water come vpon it ,
shalbe vncleane : &

all drinke that shalbe drunke in al such vessels shalbe vncleane .
*
And euery thing that their carkeis fall vpon ,
shalbe vncleane :
the fornais or the pot shalbe broken :
for they are vncleane , &
amp ;
shalbe vncleane vnto you .
*
Nevertheless a fountain or pit , [
wherein there is ]
plenty of water ,
shall be clean :
but that which (
note :)
So much of the water as touched it .(:
note )
toucheth their carcase shall be unclean .
*
And if there fal of their dead carkeis vpo any seede ,
which vseth to be sowe ,
it shalbe cleane .
*
But if [

He speaks of seed that is laid to sleep before it is sown .(:

water be put upon the seed ,
and [

of their carcase fall thereon ,
it [

unclean unto you .

If also any beast ,
whereof ye may eate ,
die ,
he that toucheth the carkeis thereof shal be vncleane vntil the euen .

And he that eateth of the carkeis of it ,
shal wash his clothes and be vncleane vntil the euen :
he also that beareth the carkeis of it ,
shal wash his clothes ,
and be vncleane vntil the euen .
*
Euery creeping thing therefore that creepeth vpon the earth shalbe an abomination ,
and not be eaten .
*
Whatsoeuer goeth vpon the breast ,
and whatsoeuer goeth vpon al foure ,
or that hath many feete among all creeping thinges that creepe vpon the earth ,
ye shal not eate of them ,
for they shalbe abomination .
*
Ye shall not pollute your selues with any thing that creepeth ,
neither make your selues vncleane with them ,
neither defile your selues thereby :
ye shal not ,
I say ,
be defiled by them ,
*
For I [
am ]
the LORD your God :
ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves ,
and ye shall be (
note :)
He shows why God chose them to be his people , (
1Pe_1
:15 ).(:
note )
holy ;
for I [
am ]
holy :
neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth .
*
For I am the Lorde that brought you out of the lande of Egypt ,
to be your God ,
and that you should be holy ,
for I am holy .
*
This is the law of beasts ,
and of foules ,
and of euery liuing thing that moueth in the waters ,
and of euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth :
*
That there may be a difference betweene the vncleane and cleane ,
and betweene the beast that may be eaten ,
and the beast that ought not to be eaten .
*
And the Lord spake vnto Moses ,
saying ,
