The Sanctity of Blood

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Speak to Aaron, to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘This is the thing which the Lord has commanded, saying:
3 “Whatever man of the house of Israel who akills an ox or lamb or goat in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,  
4 and does not bring it to the door of the tabernacle of meeting to offer an offering to the Lord before the tabernacle of the Lord, the guilt of bloodshed shall be aimputed to that man. He has shed blood; and that man shall be1 cut off from among his people,  
5 to the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices awhich they offer in the open field, that they may bring them to the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of meeting, to the priest, and offer them as peace offerings to the Lord.  
6 And the priest ashall sprinkle the blood on the altar of the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of meeting, and bburn the fat for a sweet aroma to the Lord.  
7 They shall no more offer their sacrifices ato demons, after whom they bhave played the harlot. This shall be a statute forever for them throughout their generations.” ’  
8 “Also you shall say to them: ‘Whatever man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell among you, awho offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,  
9 and does not abring it to the door of the tabernacle of meeting, to offer it to the Lord, that man shall be1 cut off from among his people.  
10 a‘And whatever man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell among you, who eats any blood, bI will set My face against that person who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.  
11 For the alife of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar bto make atonement for your souls; for cit is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.’
