It is their portion forever + throughout their generations. +007:037 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meal offering, + and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, + and of the consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace offerings; +007:038 which Yahweh commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day that + he commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings + to Yahweh, in the wilderness of Sinai. +008:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, +008:002 "Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, + and the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, + and the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread; +008:003 and assemble all the congregation at the door of the + Tent of Meeting." +008:004 Moses did as Yahweh commanded him; and the congregation was + assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting. +008:005 Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which Yahweh + has commanded to be done." +008:006 Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water. +008:007 He put the coat on him, tied the sash on him, clothed him + with the robe, put the ephod on him, and he tied the skillfully + woven band of the ephod on him, and fastened it to him with it. +008:008 He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put + the Urim and the Thummim. +008:009 He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, + he set the golden plate, the holy crown; as Yahweh commanded Moses. +008:010 Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle + and all that was in it, and sanctified them. +008:011 He sprinkled it on the altar seven times, and anointed + the altar and all its vessels, and the basin and its base, + to sanctify them. +008:012 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, + and anointed him, to sanctify him. +008:013 Moses brought Aaron's sons, and clothed them with coats, + and tied sashes on them, and put headbands on them; + as Yahweh commanded Moses. +008:014 He brought the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons + laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering. +008:015 He killed it; and Moses took the blood, and put it on the horns + of the altar round about with his finger, and purified + the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar, + and sanctified it, to make atonement for it. +008:016 He took all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover + of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses + burned it on the altar. +008:017 But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, + he burned with fire outside the camp; as Yahweh commanded Moses. +008:018 He presented the ram of the burnt offering: and Aaron and his + sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. +008:019 He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar round about. +008:020 He cut the ram into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, + and the pieces, and the fat. +008:021 He washed the innards and the legs with water; and Moses + burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering + for a sweet savor. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh; + as Yahweh commanded Moses. +008:022 He presented the other ram, the ram of consecration: + and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram. +008:023 He killed it; and Moses took some of its blood, and put it on + the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, + and on the great toe of his right foot. +008:024 He brought Aaron's sons; and Moses put some of the blood + on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their + right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; + and Moses sprinkled the blood on the altar round about. +008:025 He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on + the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, + and their fat, and the right thigh; +008:026 and out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before Yahweh, + he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, + and one wafer, and placed them on the fat, and on the right thigh. +008:027 He put all these in Aaron's hands and in his sons' hands, and waved + them for a wave offering before Yahweh. +008:028 Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar on + the burnt offering. They were a consecration for a sweet savor. + It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh. +008:029 Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering + before Yahweh. It was Moses' portion of the ram of consecration, + as Yahweh commanded Moses. +008:030 Moses took some of the anointing oil, and some of the blood which + was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments, + and on his sons, and on his sons' garments with him, + and sanctified Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and his sons' + garments with him. +008:031 Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh at the door + of the Tent of Meeting, and there eat it and the bread that + is in the basket of consecration, as I commanded, saying, + 'Aaron and his sons shall eat it.' +008:032 What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall + burn with fire. +008:033 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting + seven days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled: + for he shall consecrate you seven days. +008:034 What has been done this day, so Yahweh has commanded to do, + to make atonement for you. +008:035 At the door of the Tent of Meeting you shall stay day and night + seven days, and keep the charge of Yahweh, that you don't die: + for so I am commanded." +008:036 Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh + commanded by Moses. +009:001 It happened on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his sons, + and the elders of Israel; +009:002 and he said to Aaron, "Take a calf from the herd for a sin offering, + and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer + them before Yahweh. +009:003 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Take a male + goat for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old, + without blemish, for a burnt offering; +009:004 and an ox and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice + before Yahweh; and a meal offering mixed with oil: + for today Yahweh appears to you.'" +009:005 They brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting: + and all the congregation drew near and stood before Yahweh. +009:006 Moses said, "This is the thing which Yahweh commanded that you + should do: and the glory of Yahweh shall appear to you." +009:007 Moses said to Aaron, "Draw near to the altar, and offer + your sin offering, and your burnt offering, and make + atonement for yourself, and for the people; and offer + the offering of the people, and make atonement for them; + as Yahweh commanded." +009:008 So Aaron drew near to the altar, and killed the calf of + the sin offering, which was for himself. +009:009 The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him; and he dipped + his finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, + and poured out the blood at the base of the altar: +009:010 but the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from + the liver of the sin offering, he burned upon the altar; + as Yahweh commanded Moses. +009:011 The flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp. +009:012 He killed the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons delivered the blood + to him, and he sprinkled it on the altar round about. +009:013 They delivered the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, + and the head: and he burned them upon the altar. +009:014 He washed the innards and the legs, and burned them on the burnt + offering on the altar. +009:015 He presented the people's offering, and took the goat of + the sin offering which was for the people, and killed it, + and offered it for sin, like the first. +009:016 He presented the burnt offering, and offered it according + to the ordinance. +009:017 He presented the meal offering, and filled his hand from there, + and burned it upon the altar, besides the burnt offering + of the morning. +009:018 He also killed the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace offerings, + which was for the people: and Aaron's sons delivered to him + the blood, which he sprinkled on the altar round about, +009:019 and the fat of the ox and of the ram, the fat tail, and that + which covers the innards, and the kidneys, and the cover + of the liver: +009:020 and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burned the fat + on the altar: +009:021 and the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave + offering before Yahweh, as Moses commanded. +009:022 Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them; + and he came down from offering the sin offering, and the + burnt offering, and the peace offerings. +009:023 Moses and Aaron went into the Tent of Meeting, and came out, + and blessed the people: and the glory of Yahweh appeared + to all the people. +009:024 There came forth fire from before Yahweh, and consumed the burnt + offering and the fat upon the altar: and when all the people + saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces. +010:001 Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, + and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange + fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them. +010:002 And fire came forth from before Yahweh, and devoured them, + and they died before Yahweh. +010:003 Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what Yahweh spoke of, + saying, 'I will show myself holy to those who come near me, + and before all the people I will be glorified.'" + Aaron held his peace. +010:004 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle + of Aaron, and said to them, "Draw near, carry your brothers + from before the sanctuary out of the camp." +010:005 So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp, + as Moses had said. +010:006 Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, + "Don't let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear + your clothes; that you don't die, and that he not be angry + with all the congregation: but let your brothers, the whole + house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled. +010:007 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, + lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you." + They did according to the word of Moses. +010:008 Yahweh spoke to Aaron, saying, +010:009 "Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, + when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you don't die: + it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations: +010:010 and that you are to make a distinction between the holy + and the common, and between the unclean and the clean; +010:011 and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes + which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses." +010:012 Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, + his sons who were left, "Take the meal offering that remains + of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without + yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy; +010:013 and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, + and your sons' portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire: + for so I am commanded. +010:014 The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a + clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: + for they are given as your portion, and your sons' portion, out of + the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel. +010:015 The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with + the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave + offering before Yahweh: and it shall be yours, and your sons' + with you, as a portion forever; as Yahweh has commanded." +010:016 Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, + and, behold, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar + and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying, +010:017 "Why haven't you eaten the sin offering in the place of + the sanctuary, seeing it is most holy, and he has given it you + to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement + for them before Yahweh? +010:018 Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of + the sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, + as I commanded." +010:019 Aaron spoke to Moses, "Behold, this day they have offered + their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; + and such things as these have happened to me: and if I had + eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing + in the sight of Yahweh?" +010:020 When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight. +011:001 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them, +011:002 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'These are the living + things which you may eat among all the animals that are + on the earth. +011:003 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews + the cud among the animals, that you may eat. +011:004 "'Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew + the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, + because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, + he is unclean to you. +011:005 The coney, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, + he is unclean to you. +011:006 The hare, because she chews the cud but doesn't part the hoof, + she is unclean to you. +011:007 The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, + but doesn't chew the cud, he is unclean to you. +011:008 Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you + shall not touch;

If the value +per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2 +million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text +files per month: 1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+ +We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002 +If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total +will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end. + +The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks! +This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers, +which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users. + +Here is the briefest record of our progress (* means estimated): + +eBooks Year Month + + 1 1971 July + 10 1991 January + 100 1994 January + 1000 1997 August + 1500 1998 October + 2000 1999 December + 2500 2000 December + 3000 2001 November + 4000 2001 October/November + 6000 2002 December* + 9000 2003 November* +10000 2004 January* + + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been created +to secure a future for Project Gutenberg into the next millennium. + +We need your donations more than ever! + +As of February, 2002, contributions are being solicited from people +and organizations in: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, +Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, +Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, +Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New +Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, +Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South +Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West +Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. + +We have filed in all 50 states now, but these are the only ones +that have responded. + +As the requirements for other states are met, additions to this list +will be made and fund raising will begin in the additional states. +Please feel free to ask to check the status of your state. + +In answer to various questions we have received on this: + +We are constantly working on finishing the paperwork to legally +request donations in all 50 states.
