Do not leave the the entrance of the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until your period of inauguration is complete; because your installation ceremony shall last for seven days. Remain in the Tent of Meeting’s entrance day and night for seven days. You will keep God’s charge and not die, since this is what was commanded. (Leviticus 8:33, 35)
