Thus says the Lord God: In the first month, on the first day of the month, you shall take a young bull without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary'—establishing the festival calendar with the Passover month and specifying a cleansing ritual. The first month and first day emphasize the beginning of the ritual year. The unblemished bull emphasizes the quality of offerings. This verse establishes the festival calendar.
