Deuteronomy 16 The Three Feasts of Easter, Pentecost and Tabernacles

Deuteronomy 16
The Three Feasts of Easter, Pentecost and Tabernacles
1 Keep the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God brought thee out of Egypt by night.
2 Then shalt thou sacrifice the passover unto the LORD thy God, the sheep and the cattle, in the place which the LORD shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.
3 Thou shalt not eat leavened therein: seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therein, bread of affliction (because thou hast hastily departed from the land of Egypt), that thou mayest remember the day of thy departing from the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.
4 Yeast will not appear with you for seven days in all your terms: neither of the flesh which thou shalt kill in the evening on the first day shall be left until the morning.
5 You shall not be able to sacrifice the passover in any of your gates which the LORD your God gives you.
6 But in the place which the LORD thy God shall choose, to make his name dwell, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover in the evening, at sunset, at the appointed time of thy departure from Egypt.
7 And thou shalt boil it, and eat in the place which the LORD thy God shall choose; Then you will go out in the morning and go to your tents.
8 Six days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is solemnity to the LORD thy God. You will do no work.
9 Seven weeks thou shalt count; as long as the scythe starts in the harvest you will start counting at seven weeks.
10 Then shalt thou celebrate the feast of weeks unto the LORD thy God; what you give will be a willing tribute from your hand, according to the Lord your God has blessed you.
11 And thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in your midst, in the place which the LORD thy God shall choose, to make his name to dwell there.
12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in Egypt: and thou shalt keep these statutes, and do them.
13 Thou shalt keep the feast of tabernacles seven days, when thou shalt gather of thy threshing floor and of thy winepress.
14 And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy servant, and thy handmaid, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are of thine doors inside.
15 Seven days shalt thou celebrate the feast unto the LORD thy God in the place which the LORD shall choose: for the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy harvest, and in all the work of thy hands; Therefore you will certainly rejoice.
16 Three times in the year shall every man among thee appear before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles; but it shall not appear empty before the Lord:
17 Each according to the gift of his hand, according to the blessing which the LORD thy God hath given thee.
