He said, "Put your hand back into your robe." So he put his hand back into his robe, and when he brought it out from his robe -- there it was, restored like the rest of his skin!

So Moses went back to his father-in-law Jethro and said to him, "Let me go, so that I may return to my relatives in Egypt and see if they are still alive." Jethro said to Moses, "Go in peace."

The Lord said to Moses in Midian, "Go back to Egypt, because all the men who were seeking your life are dead."

Then Moses took his wife and sons and put them on a donkey and headed back to the land of Egypt, and Moses took the staff of God in his hand.

The Lord said to Moses, "When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders I have put under your control. But I will harden his heart and he will not let the people go.

So now, get back to work! You will not be given straw, but you must still produce your quota of bricks!"

So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh, and he said to them, "Go, serve the Lord your God. Exactly who is going with you?"

The Lord said to Moses, "Extend your hand toward the sea, so that the waters may flow back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen!"

For the horses of Pharaoh came with his chariots and his footmen into the sea, and the Lord brought back the waters of the sea on them, but the Israelites walked on dry land in the middle of the sea."

"This is what the Lord has commanded: 'Each person is to gather from it what he can eat, an omer per person according to the number of your people; each one will pick it up for whoever lives in his tent.'"

He said to them, "This is what the Lord has said: 'Tomorrow is a time of cessation from work, a holy Sabbath to the Lord. Whatever you want to bake, bake today; whatever you want to boil, boil today; whatever is left put aside for yourselves to be kept until morning.'"

The Lord said to Moses, "Write this as a memorial in the book, and rehearse it in Joshua's hearing; for I will surely wipe out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.

Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took Moses' wife Zipporah after he had sent her back,

and all the people answered together, "All that the Lord has commanded we will do!" So Moses brought the words of the people back to the Lord.

"If a man steals an ox or a sheep and kills it or sells it, he must pay back five head of cattle for the ox, and four sheep for the one sheep.

If the stolen item should in fact be found alive in his possession, whether it be an ox or a donkey or a sheep, he must pay back double.

"Do not hold back offerings from your granaries or your vats. You must give me the firstborn of your sons.

He took the Book of the Covenant and read it aloud to the people, and they said, "We are willing to do and obey all that the Lord has spoken."

Now the part that remains of the curtains of the tent -- the half curtain that remains will hang over at the back of the tabernacle.

And for the back of the tabernacle on the west you will make six frames.

You are to make two frames for the corners of the tabernacle on the back.

and five bars for the frames on the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames on the back of the tabernacle on the west.

and you are to kill the ram and take some of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron, on the tip of the right ear of his sons, on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot, and then splash the blood all around on the altar.

Moses turned and went down from the mountain with the two tablets of the testimony in his hands. The tablets were written on both sides -- they were written on the front and on the back.

and he said to them, "Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, 'Each man fasten his sword on his side, and go back and forth from entrance to entrance throughout the camp, and each one kill his brother, his friend, and his neighbor.'"

But now, if you will forgive their sin, but if not, wipe me out from your book that you have written."

The Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me -- that person I will wipe out of my book.

Then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back, but my face must not be seen."

But Moses called to them, so Aaron and all the leaders of the community came back to him, and Moses spoke to them.

And for the back of the tabernacle on the west he made six frames.

He made two frames for the corners of the tabernacle on the back.

and five bars for the frames on the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames of the tabernacle for the back side on the west.

one beka per person, that is, a half shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, for everyone who crossed over to those numbered, from twenty years old or older, 603,550 in all.
