Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

Two liturgical enactments having a clear and close reference to the whole of the preceding legislation, form a most appropriate and significant conclusion to it, namely, (1) the formal acknowledgment in deed and symbol of God’s faithfulness, by presentment of a basket filled with firstfruits, and in word by recitation of the solemn formula prescribed in Deu 26:3, Deu 26:5-10; and (2) the solemn declaration and profession on the part of each Israelite on the occasion of the third tithe Deu 26:12.
