Numbers 6

YHWH instructs Moses on the Nazirite vow, a special dedication to God requiring abstinence from wine, avoidance of dead bodies, and uncut hair for the vow's duration.[3] The chapter details the requirements for maintaining the vow, consequences of defilement, and the elaborate sacrificial ceremony required upon completion.[3]
