'Thus says HASHEM G-d: "The gateway of the inner court that faces toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the Sabbath it shall be opened, and on the day of the New Moon it shall be opened.
The prince shall enter by way of the vestibule of the gateway from the outside, and stand by the gatepost. The priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings. He shall worship at the threshold of the gate. Then he shall go out, but the gate shall not be shut until evening.
Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the entrance to this gateway before
HASHEM on the Sabbaths and the New Moons.
The burnt offering that the prince offers to the L'HASHEM on the Sabbath day shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish;
and the grain offering shall be one efah for a ram, and the grain offering for the lambs, as much as he wants to give, as well as a hin of oil with every efah.
On the day of the New Moon it shall be a young bull without blemish, six lambs, and a ram; they shall be without blemish.
He shall prepare a grain offering of an ephah for a bull, an efah for a ram, as much as he wants to give for the lambs, and a hin of oil with every efah.
When the prince enters, he shall go in by way of the vestibule of the gateway, and go out the same way.
But when the people of the land come before HASHEM on the appointed feast days, whoever enters by way of the north gate to worship shall go out by way of the south gate; and whoever enters by way of the south gate shall go out by way of the north gate. He shall not return by way of the gate through which he came, but shall go out through the opposite gate.
The prince shall then be in their midst. When they go in, he shall go in; and when they go out, he shall go out.
At the festivals and the appointed feast days the grain offering shall be an efah for a bull, an efah for a ram, as much as he wants to give for the lambs, and a hin of oil with every efah.
Now when the prince makes a voluntary burnt offering or voluntary peace offering to
HASHEM, the gate that faces toward the east shall then be opened for him; and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings as he did on the Sabbath day. Then he shall go out, and after he goes out the gate shall be shut.
You shall daily make a burnt offering to HASHEM of a lamb of the first year without blemish; you shall prepare it every morning.
And you shall prepare a grain offering with it every morning, a sixth of an efah, and a third of a hin of oil to moisten the fine flour. This grain offering is a perpetual ordinance, to be made regularly to
HASHEM.
Thus they shall prepare the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil, as a regular burnt offering every morning."
'Thus says HASHEM: "If the prince gives a gift of some of his inheritance to any of his sons, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance.
But if he gives a gift of some of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the year of liberty, after which it shall return to the prince. But his inheritance shall belong to his sons; it shall become theirs.
Moreover the prince shall not take any of the people's inheritance by evicting them from their property; he shall provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people may be scattered from his property."'"

Ve'arvah l'HASHEM minchat Yehudah viYerushalayim kimei olam ucheshanim kadmoni'ot.
"Then the offering of Yehudah and Yerushalayim will be pleasant to HASHEM, as in the days of old, as in former years.
And I will come near you for judgment; I will be a swift witness against sorcerers, against adulterers, against perjurers, against those who exploit wage earners and widows and orphans, and against those who turn away an alien--because they do not fear Me," Says
HASHEM of hosts.
For I am HASHEM, I do not change; therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Yaakov.
Yet from the days of your fathers You have gone away from My ordinances and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you," Says
HASHEM of hosts. "But you said, 'In what way shall we return?'
Will a man rob G-d? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, 'In what way have we robbed You?' In tithes and offerings.
You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation.
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this," Says
HASHEM of hosts, "If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.
And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, so that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field," Says
HASHEM of hosts;
And all nations will call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land," Says
HASHEM of hosts.
Your words have been harsh against Me," Says HASHEM, "Yet you say, 'What have we spoken against You?'
You have said, 'It is useless to serve G-d; what profit is it that we have kept His ordinance, and that we have walked as mourners before
HASHEM of hosts?
So now we call the proud blessed, for those who do wickedness are raised up; they even tempt
G-d and go free.'"
Then those who feared HASHEM spoke to one another, and HASHEM listened and heard them; so a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear
HASHEM and who meditate on His name.
They shall be Mine," says HASHEM of hosts, "On the day that I make them My jewels. And I will spare them As a man spares his own son who serves him."
Then you shall again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves
G-d and one who does not serve Him.

For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, and all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day which is coming shall burn them up," Says
HASHEM of hosts, "That will leave them neither root nor branch.
But to you who fear My name the sun of righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; and you shall go out and grow fat like stall-fed calves.
You shall trample the wicked, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I do this," Says
HASHEM of hosts.
Remember the Torah of Moshe, My servant, which I commanded him in Chorev for all Yisrael, with the statutes and judgments.
Behold, I will send you Eliyahu the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of
HASHEM.
And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse."

And Yehoshua said to the people, "Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow HASHEM will do wonders among you."
Then Yehoshua spoke to the priests, saying, "Take up the ark of the covenant and cross over before the people." So they took up the ark of the covenant and went before the people.
And HASHEM said to Yehoshua, "This day I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Yisrael, that they may know that, as I was with Moshe, so I will be with you.

5:2
Ba'et hahi amar HASHEM el-Yehoshua aseh lecha charvot tzurim veshuv mol et-benei-Yisrael shenit.
At that time HASHEM said to Yehoshua, "Make flint knives for yourself, and circumcise the sons of Yisrael again the second time."
So Yehoshua made flint knives for himself, and circumcised the sons of Yisrael at the hill of the foreskins.
And this is the reason why Yehoshua circumcised them: All the people who came out of
Egypt who were males, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way, after they had come out of
Egypt.
For all the people who came out had been circumcised, but all the people born in the wilderness, on the way as they came out of
Egypt, had not been circumcised.
For the children of Yisrael walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of
Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the voice of HASHEM--To whom
HASHEM swore that He would not show them the land which HASHEM had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, "a land flowing with milk and honey."
Then Yehoshua circumcised their sons whom He raised up in their place; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the way.
So it was, when they had finished circumcising all the people, that they stayed in their places in the camp till they were healed.
Then HASHEM said to Yehoshua, "This day I have rolled away the reproach of
Egypt from you." Therefore the name of the place is called Gilgal to this day.
Now the children of Yisrael camped in Gilgal, and kept the Pesach on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight on the plains of Yericho.
And they ate of the produce of the land on the day after the Pesach, unleavened bread and parched grain, on the very same day.
Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Yisrael no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Kenaan that year.
And it came to pass, when Yehoshua was by Yericho, that he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, a Man stood opposite him with His sword drawn in His hand. And Yehoshua went to Him and said to Him, "Are You for us or for our adversaries?"
So He said, "No, but as Commander of the army of HASHEM I have now come." And Yehoshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped, and said to Him, "What does my master say to His servant?"
Then the Commander of HASHEM's army said to Yehoshua, "Take your sandal off your foot, for the place where you stand is holy." And Yehoshua did so.
6:1
ViYericho sogeret umesugeret mipnei benei Yisrael ein yotze ve'ein ba.
Now Yericho was securely shut up because of the children of Yisrael; none went out, and none came in.
6:27
Vayehi HASHEM et-Yehoshua vayehi shom'o bechol-ha'aretz.
So HASHEM was with Yehoshua, and his fame spread throughout all the country.

23:1
Vayishlach hamelech vaya'asfu elav kol-ziknei Yehudah viYerushalayim.
Now the king sent them to gather all the elders of Yehudah and Yerushalayim to him.
The king went up to the house of HASHEM with all the men of Yehudah, and with him all the inhabitants of Yerushalayim--the priests and the prophets and all the people, both small and great. And he read in their hearing all the words of the Book of the Covenant which had been found in the house of
HASHEM.
Then the king stood by a pillar and made a covenant before HASHEM, to follow
HASHEM and to keep His commandments and His testimonies and His statutes, with all his heart and all his soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people took a stand for the covenant.
And the king commanded Chilkiyahu the high priest, the priests of the second order, and the doorkeepers, to bring out of the temple of
HASHEM all the articles that were made for Baal, for Asherah, and for all the host of heaven; and he burned them outside Yerushalayim in the fields of Kidron, and carried their ashes to Beit-El.
Then he removed the idolatrous priests whom the kings of Yehudah had ordained to burn incense on the high places in the cities of Yehudah and in the places all around Yerushalayim, and those who burned incense to Ba'al, to the sun, to the moon, to the constellations, and to all the host of heaven.
And he brought out the wooden image from the house of HASHEM, to the Brook Kidron outside Yerushalayim, burned it at the Brook Kidron and ground it to ashes, and threw its ashes on the graves of the common people.
Then he tore down the ritual booths of the perverted persons that were in the house of
HASHEM, where the women wove hangings for the wooden image.
And he brought all the priests from the cities of Yehudah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geva to Beer Sheva; also he broke down the high places at the gates which were at the entrance of the Gate of Yehoshua the governor of the city, which were to the left of the city gate.
Nevertheless the priests of the high places did not come up to the altar of
HASHEM in Yerushalayim, but they ate unleavened bread among their brethren.

Then the king commanded all the people, saying, "Keep the Passover to HASHEM your
G-d, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant."
Such a Passover surely had never been held since the days of the judges who judged Yisrael, nor in all the days of the kings of Yisrael and the kings of Yehudah.
But in the eighteenth year of King Yoshiyahu this Passover was held before
HASHEM in Yerushalayim.
Moreover Yoshiyahu put away those who consulted mediums and spiritists, the household
god and idols, all the abominations that were seen in the land of Yehudah and in Yerushalayim, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Chilkiyahu the priest found in the house of
HASHEM.
Now before him there was no king like him, who turned to HaShem with all his heart, with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the Torah of Moshe; nor after him did any arise like him.
Yechezkel 36:37 - 36:38 ; 37:1 - 37:17
38 Ketzon kodashim ketzon Yerushalayim bemo'adeiha ken tiheyeinah he'arim hecharevot mele'ot tzon adam veyad'u ki-ani

36:37
Koh amar HASHEM Elokim od zot idaresh leveit-Yisrael la'asot lahem arbeh otam katzon adam.
'Thus says HASHEM G-d: "I will also let the house of Yisrael inquire of Me to do this for them: I will increase their men like a flock.
Like a flock offered as holy sacrifices, like the flock at Yerushalayim on its feast days, so shall the ruined cities be filled with flocks of men. Then they shall know that I am
HASHEM.''"
