Contextual Overview

1 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and say to them, You shall be holy; for I, Yahweh your God, am holy. 3 You shall fear every man his mother, and his father; and you shall keep my Sabbaths: I am Yahweh your God. 4 Don't turn yourselves to idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am Yahweh your God. 5 And when you offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Yahweh, you shall offer it that you may be accepted. 6 It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day: and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire. 7 And if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is contaminated; it shall not be accepted: 8 but every one that eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of Yahweh: and that soul shall be cut off from his people. 9 And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleaning of your harvest. 10 And you shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am Yahweh your God.
