and there shalt thou do all that I command thee;
respecting sanctuary service, and particularly those things observed in ( Deuteronomy 12:6 ) .

Deuteronomy 12:14 In-Context

12 and you will rejoice in the presence of ADONAI your God - you, your sons and daughters, your male and female slaves and the Levi staying with you, inasmuch as he has no share or inheritance with you.
13 "Be careful not to offer your burnt offerings just anywhere you see,
14 but do it in the place ADONAI will choose in one of your tribal territories; there is where you are to offer your burnt offerings and do everything I order you to do.
15 However, you may slaughter and eat meat wherever you live and whenever you want, in keeping with the degree to which ADONAI your God has blessed you. The unclean and the clean may eat it, as if it were gazelle or deer.
16 But don't eat the blood; pour it out on the ground like water.
