Exodus 23:14–19

14 “Celebrate a festival in my honor three times a year.l 15 Observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread. As I commanded you, you are to eat unleavened bread for seven days at the appointed time in the month of Abib,* because you came out of Egypt in that month. No one is to appear before me empty-handed.m 16 Also observe the Festival of Harvest* with the firstfruits of your produce from what you sow in the field, and observe the Festival of Ingathering* n at the end of the year, when you gather your produceG from the field. 17 Three times a year all your males are to appear before the Lord God.

18 “You must not offer the blood of my sacrifices with anything leavened. The fat of my festival offering must not remain until morning.o

19 “Bring the best of the firstfruits of your land to the house of the Lord your God.

“You must not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.p
