14 r“Three times you shall keep a feast to Me in the year: 15 sYou shall keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread (you shall eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month of Abib, for in it you came out of Egypt; tnone shall appear before Me empty); 16 uand the Feast of Harvest, the firstfruits of your labors which you have sown in the field; and vthe Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you have gathered in the fruit of your labors from the field.
17 w“Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the Lord 3God.
18 x“You shall not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leavened ybread; nor shall the fat of My 4sacrifice remain until morning. 19 zThe first of the firstfruits of your land you shall bring into the house of the Lord your God. aYou shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
About The New King James VersionThe New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study. |
