Primary Verses:
- Num. 6:18-21
-
"And
the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at
the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and
shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and
put it in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the
peace offerings. And the priest shall
take the sodden shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened
cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and
shall put them upon the hands of the Nazarite, after the
hair of his separation is shaven: And the priest shall
wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: this is
holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave
shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine.
This is the law of the Nazarite who hath vowed, and of
his offering unto the LORD for his separation, beside
that that his hand shall get: according to the vow which
he vowed, so he must do after the law of his
separation."

to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;
Them take, and purify
thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that
they may shave their heads: and all may
know that those things, whereof they were informed
concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also
walkest orderly, and keepest the law."
