I am God. > > 3 "Tell them, From now on, if any of your descendants approaches in a > state of ritual uncleanness > the holy offerings that the Israelites consecrate to > God, he will be cut off from my presence.

A > fight broke out in the camp between him and an Israelite. > The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name of God and cursed. They > brought him to Moses. His > mother's name was Shelomith, daughter of Dibri of > the tribe of Dan.
