Exodus 34:10-27 - Covenant Stipulations
10 Jehovah said: Behold! I offer a covenant (promise) to perform signs and miracles for you that have never been done in all the earth. Neighboring nations will stand in fear and know that I was the one who did these marvelous things. 11 I will force out the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. You must do what I command you today. 12 Watch yourself that you make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land into which you are going. It will become a snare in your midst. 13 Instead tear down their altars and smash their sacred pillars and cut down their Asherim. 14 Do not worship any other god but Jehovah for his reputation is filled with zeal, and he is a God who demands exclusive devotion.
15 Otherwise you might make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land. They would commit spiritual immorality (fornication) with their gods and sacrifice to their gods. Someone might invite you to eat of his sacrifice. 16 You might take some of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters might commit spiritual immorality (fornication) with their gods and cause your sons also to commit spiritual immorality with their gods.
17 Do not make idol gods for yourself.
18 Celebrate the Festival of Unleavened Bread. As I commanded you, you must eat unleavened bread for seven days at the appointed time in the month of Abib. This is because in that month you came out of Egypt.
19 Every first male offspring is mine. The firstborn males of all your livestock, whether cattle, sheep, or goats are mine. 20 It will cost you a sheep or a goat to buy back the firstborn donkey. If you do not buy it back, then you must break the donkey's neck. You must buy back every firstborn of your sons. No one may come into my presence without an offering.
21 You may work six days. On the seventh day you must not work. Even during the time of plowing or harvesting you must not work on this day.
22 Celebrate the Festival of Weeks with the first grain from your wheat harvest. Celebrate the Festival of the Final Harvest at the end of the season. 23 Three times a year all your men must come into the presence of the Sovereign Jehovah, the God of Israel. 24 I will force nations out of your way and will expand your country's borders. No one will want to take away your land while you are gone three times a year to Jehovah's festivals.
25 Do not offer the blood of a sacrifice to me at the same time you offer anything containing yeast. No part of the sacrifice at the Passover festival should be left over in the morning.
26 I am Jehovah your God! You must bring the first part of your harvest to the place of worship. Do not boil a young goat in its mother's milk.
27 Jehovah told Moses: Put these laws in writing, as part of my agreement (covenant) with Israel.
