Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall remove leaven from your houses. For whoever eats anything leavened from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.

Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast unto Jehovah.

And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread unto Jehovah; seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.

On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover of Jehovah.

And on the fifteenth day of this month is the feast; unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days.

Three times a year all your males shall appear before Jehovah your God in the place which He chooses: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, at the Feast of Weeks, and at the Feast of Booths; and they shall not appear before Jehovah empty.

And on this mountain Jehovah of Hosts will make a feast of fatness for all the people, a feast of the dregs of wine, of fat things full of marrow, of the dregs of refined wine.

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me; for I had gone with the multitude; I went with them to the house of God with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping the feast.

You shall have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is consecrated; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a flute to come into the mountain of Jehovah, to the Mighty One of Israel.

Everywhere it is heard that there is sexual perversion among you, and such sexual perversion as is not even named among the Gentiles; that a man has his father's wife.

Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be led astray. Neither prostitutes, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,

And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

You shall eat nothing leavened with it; seven days you shall eat unleavened bread with it, the bread of affliction (for you came out of the land of Egypt in haste), that you may remember the day in which you came out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life.

that it not be, when I come again, that my God will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinned before and have not repented of the uncleanness, sexual perversities, and licentiousness which they have practiced.

This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the emptiness of their mind,

who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to licentiousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus:

that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh in the lusts of men, but in the will of God.

for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like men?

Then Jesus said to them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.

Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

and plotted to take Jesus by trickery and kill Him.

But they said, Not during the Feast, that there not be an uproar among the people.

And He charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.

In the meantime, when an innumerable multitude of people had gathered together, so that they trampled one another, He began to say to His disciples first of all, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early. But they themselves did not go into the Praetorium, that they should not be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.

They answered and said to him, If He were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him up to you.

For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, evil speakings, whisperings, conceits, commotions;

Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking,

as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the Word, that you may grow thereby,

Now therefore, fear Jehovah, serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers have served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve Jehovah!

Blessed is the man to whom Jehovah does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit.

For our rejoicing is this: the testimony of our conscience, that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.

I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love through the diligence of others.

Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.

My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
