SCRIPTURE

"Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be done exactly for the house of the God of heaven; for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?" — Ezra 7:23 (ASV)

Literally, as in the margin, that is, Whatever is commanded in the Law with respect to the temple service.
