Contextual Overview

¹ And the Lord said to Moses, ² Say to all the people of Israel, You are to be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy. ³ Let every man give honour to his mother and to his father and keep my Sabbaths: I am the Lord your God. ⁴ Do not go after false gods, and do not make metal images of gods for yourselves: I am the Lord your God. ⁵ And when you give a peace offering to the Lord, do it in the way which is pleasing to the Lord. ⁶ Let it be used for food on the same day on which it is offered, or on the day after; and whatever is over on the third day is to be burned with fire. ⁷ If any of it is used for food on the third day, it is a disgusting thing and will not be pleasing to the Lord. ⁸ And as for anyone who takes it for food, his sin will be on him, for he has put shame on the holy thing of the Lord: he will be cut off from his people. ⁹ And when you get in the grain from your land, do not let all the grain be cut from the edges of the field, or take up what has been dropped on the earth after the getting in of the grain. ¹⁰ And do not take all the grapes from your vine-garden, or the fruit dropped on the earth; let the poor man, and the man from another country, have these: I am the Lord your God.
