What happensPermalink
Moses gives laws about clean and unclean foods as well as tithing and how to do it.
Why it mattersPermalink
The food laws make Israel distinctive among the nations. Tithing is known as far back as Abraham and Melchizedek, but Moses puts some structure around it.
Key versePermalink
“For you are a people holy to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.”
