Moses applies Israel’s holiness to mourning customs, diet, and giving. Israel must not copy pagan cutting or shaving rituals for the dead; clean and unclean animals are distinguished; and tithes are to be eaten in the LORD’s presence, with provision made for those who live far away. Every third year, the tithe stored locally supports Levites, strangers, fatherless children, and widows.
