Chapter 12


1

And it came to pass that Moses did share with me his knowledge, and I do write it that my people will remember and learn.

2

And thus saith Moses, the Lawgiver of YHVH Tsidkenu (וּנקדצ הוהי YHVH Our Righteousness): There shall not be found among the people of Israel any who sacrifice his son or daughter in the fire, or who should put to death any human as a sacrifice unto Ha’Elohim.

3

And Thou shalt not sacrifice unto יהוה (YHVH), your Elohim, any bullock or sheep wherein there is blemish or any that is mangled; for this is detestable unto YHVH, your Elohim.

4

And why is this? Because Israel is a holy people unto יהוה (YHVH), your Elohim; therefore, your offering shall be holy.

5

And they who do eat of it, do it in remembrance of the blood which was shed for them; for all that you do eat, the blood of it must be shed.

6

And that you may witness unto Abba Ha’Briy’ah (האירבה יבא Father of Creation) that you are His people, and that you do always remember Him, by seeing Yah in her (Israel’s) countenance.

7

For your sacrifices are to be a feast, even a celebration, and these are the feasts of יהוה (YHVH); holy assemblies, even assemblies and feasts unto יהוה (YHVH), your Elohim.

8

And in your feasts of love, in your solemn assemblies, in your humiliation, and in your sorrow, just as you separate the blood from the sacrifice, you shall not feed the people meat alone,

9

But you will separate out from among the best of your wine, a sacrifice of the juice of fruit, and just as with the sacrifice of the bread of grain, a portion be consecrated unto YHVH Raphacha (ךאפר הוהי YHVH Heals/Restores),

10

That every Sabbath the Priest shall set the bread in order before YHVH continually, being taken from Israel by an everlasting covenant.

11

And the bread shall be even as the body, and the wine the blood, for you will not drink the blood; the blood thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar.

12

And this feast is as one great sacrifice, given willingly as an offering for the sins of the world.

13

And they who are washed of their sins, and have a pure conscience before Ve’Daiyan Israel (לארשי ןידו Protector/Judge of Israel), shall eat and drink thereof at the hands of the talmidim and High Priests, who shall consecrate it, and the Priests and Elders who shall minister it, that, partaking of the sacrifice, they may lay hold on eternal life.

14

For this is the one great sacrifice, the broken heart and contrite spirit unto the giving of yourselves to another, which except ye eat of it, there is no life in you.

15

And now, when you eat of the sacrifice, beware how you eat of it: for in the spirit in which ye eat and drink, shall ye be confirmed and strengthened.

16

And if you do eat and drink of the great sacrifice in purity of purpose, not offending against YHVH Adoni Ha’Shaboth (תבשה ןוֹדא הוהי YHVH, Lord of the Sabbath) nor any person, and then all your former sins will be blotted out of the Book of Remembrance;

17

Yea, you will be established in righteousness and grow up into everlasting life.

18

But, if ye eat of it and drink of it in judgment of another, and without remorse, you do eat and drink condemnation, consigning yourself to your iniquities;

19

Therefore, when ye come to the altar of sacrifice, the table of יהוה (YHVH), your Elohim, to eat of it, looking inward to see if you have done injustice to anyone, for an injury to your neighbor is iniquity against YHVH Raphacha (ךאפר הוהי YHVH Heals/Restores).

20

Wherefore, may you humble yourselves before YHVH El Racham (םוּחר לא הוהי YHVH God of Lovingkindness) and make restitution to your neighbors;

21

And may you come with clean hands and a pure heart to this, the most holy sacrifice, for it is the giving of yourself and the best of your fruits, or it is not a sacrifice unto Elohim Shaddai El’Olam (אֵ֥ל עוֹלָֽם the Everlasting God).

22

It would be better that you should bring an unclean animal to sacrifice, than to be unclean in your sacrifice.

23

And these are the teachings of Moses given for the sake of the life of mankind and for the living.
