Daily Bible reading Experience.
Day 100 and 24
then the Lord said to Moses, give
Aaron and his sons the following
instructions regarding the burnt offering.
The burnt offering must be left on top
of the altar until the next morning,
and the fire on the altar must be kept
burning all night in the morning after
the priest on duty has put on his official
linen clothing and linen undergarments.
He must clean out the ashes of the burnt
offering and put them beside the altar.
Then he must take off these garments,
change back into his regular clothes,
and carry the ashes outside the camp
to a place that is ceremonially clean.
Meanwhile, the fire on the
altar must be kept burning.
It must never go out.
Each morning, the priest will
add fresh wood to the fire and
arrange the burnt offering on it.
He will then burn the fat of
the peace offerings on it.
Remember, the fire must be kept
burning on the altar at all times.
It must never go out.
These are the instructions
regarding the grain offering.
Aaron's sons must present this offering
to the Lord in front of the altar.
The priest on duty will take from
the grain offering a handful of the
choice flour moistened with olive oil
together with all the frankincense.
He will burn this representative
portion on the altar as a
pleasing aroma to the Lord.
Aaron and his sons may eat the rest of
the flour, but it must be baked without
yeast and eaten in a sacred place
within the courtyard of the tabernacle.
Remember, it must never
be prepared with yeast.
I have given it to the
priests as their share of the
special gifts presented to me.
Like the sin offering
and the guilt offering.
It is most holy.
Any of Aaron's male descendants
may eat from the special
gifts presented to the Lord.
This is their permanent right
from generation to generation.
Anyone or anything that touches
these offerings will become holy.
Then.
The Lord said to Moses on the day,
Aaron and his sons are anointed.
They must present to the Lord
the standard grain offering
of two quarts of choice flour.
Have to be offered in the morning and
have to be offered in the evening.
It must be carefully mixed with
olive oil and cooked on a griddle.
Then slice this grain offering and present
it as a pleasing aroma to the Lord in each
generation, the high priest who succeeds,
Aaron must prepare this same offering.
It belongs to the Lord and
must be burned up completely.
This is a permanent law.
All such grain offerings of a
priest must be burned up entirely.
None of it may be eaten.
Then the Lord said to Moses, give
Aaron and his sons the following
instructions regarding the sin Offering.
The animal given as an offering for
sin is a most holy offering, and it
must be slaughtered in the Lord's
presence at the place where the
burnt offerings are slaughtered.
The priest who offers the sacrifice
as a sin offering must eat his
portion in a sacred place within
the courtyard of the tabernacle.
Anyone or anything that touches the
sacrificial meat will become holy.
If any of the sacrificial blood spatters
on a person's clothing, the soiled
garment must be washed in a sacred place.
If a clay pot is used to boil the
sacrificial meat, it must then be broken.
If a bronze pot is used, it must be
scoured and thoroughly rinsed with water.
Any male from a priest's family
may eat from this offering.
It is most holy, but the offering
for sin may not be eaten.
If its blood was brought into into
the tabernacle as an offering for
purification in the holy place, it
must be completely burned with fire.
These are the instructions
for the guilt offering.
It is most holy.
The animal sacrificed as a guilt
offering must be slaughtered at the
place where the burnt offerings are
slaughtered and its blood must be
splattered against all sides of the altar.
The priest will then offer all its
fat on the altar, including the fat
of the broad tail, the fat around
the internal organs, the two kidneys
and the fat around them near the
loins and the long lobe of the liver.
These are to be removed with the kidneys
and the priest will burn them on the altar
as a special gift presented to the Lord.
This is the guilt offering.
Any male from a priest's
family may eat the meat.
It must be eaten in a sacred
place for it is most holy.
The same instructions applied to both
the guilt offering and the sin offering.
Both belong to the priest who uses
them to purify someone, making
that person right with the Lord.
In the case of the burnt
offering, the priest may keep the
hide of the sacrificed animal.
Any grain offering that has been
baked in an oven, prepared in a
pan or cooked on a griddle belongs
to the priest who presents it.
All.
Other grain offerings, whether made
of dry flour or flour, moistened
with olive oil are to be shared
equally among all the priests.
The descendants of Aaron.
These are the instructions regarding
the different kinds of peace offerings
that may be presented to the Lord.
If you present your peace offering
as an expression of Thanksgiving,
the usual animal sacrifice must be
accompanied by various kinds of bread
made with without yeast, thin cakes
mixed with olive oil wafers, spread
with oil and cakes made of choice.
Flour mixed with olive oil.
This peace offering of Thanksgiving
must also be accompanied by
loaves of bread made with yeast.
One of each kind of bread must be
presented as a gift to the Lord.
It will then belong to the priest
who splatters the blood of the
peace offering against the altar.
The meat of the peace
offering of thanksgiving must
be eaten on the same day.
It is offered.
None of it may be saved
for the next morning.
If you bring an offering to fulfill
a vow or as a voluntary offering, the
meat must be eaten on the same day The
sacrifice is offered, but whatever is
left over may be eaten on the second day.
Any meat left over until the third
day must be completely burned up.
If any of the meat from the peace
offering is eaten on the third
day, the person who presented it
will not be accepted by the Lord.
You'll receive no credit for offering it.
By then, the meat will be contaminated.
If you eat it, you'll be punished for
your sin meat that touches anything.
Ceremonially unclean may not be eaten.
It must be completely burned up.
The rest of the meat may be eaten, but
only by people who are ceremonially clean.
If you are ceremonially unclean and
you eat meat from a peace offering
that was presented to the Lord,
you'll be cut off from the community.
If you touch anything that is unclean,
whether it is human defilement or an
unclean animal, or any other unclean,
detestable thing, and then eat meat from
a peace offering presented to the Lord,
you will be cut off from the community.
Then the Lord said to Moses,
give the following instructions
to the people of Israel.
You must never eat fat, whether
from cattle, sheep, or goats.
The fat of an animal found
dead or torn to pieces by wild
animals must never be eaten.
Though it may be used
for any other purpose.
Anyone who eats fat from an animal
presented as a special gift to
the Lord will be cut off from the
community no matter where you live.
You must never consume the
blood of any bird or animal.
Anyone who consumes blood will
be cut off from the community.
Then the Lord said to Moses.
Give the following instructions
to the people of Israel.
When you present a peace
offering to the Lord, bring part
of it as a gift to the Lord.
Present it to the Lord with your own
hands As a special gift to the Lord,
bring the fat of the animal together
with the breast and lift up the breast
as a special offering to the Lord.
Then the priest will burn the fat
on the altar, but the breast will
belong to Aaron and his descendants.
Give the right thigh of your
peace offering to the priest.
As a gift.
The right thigh must always be given
to the priest who offers the blood
and the fat of the peace offering.
For I have reserved the breast of the
special offering and the right thigh
of the sacred offering for the priests.
It is the permanent right of Aaron and
his descendants to share in the peace
offerings brought by the people of Israel.
This is their rightful share.
The special gifts presented to the
Lord have been reserved for Aaron and
his descendants from the time they
were set apart to serve the Lord as
priests on the day they were anointed.
The Lord commanded the Israelites
to give these portions to the
priests as their permanent share
from generation to generation.
These are the instructions for the
burnt offering, the grain offering,
the sin offering, and the guilt
offering, as well as the ordination
offering and the peace offering.
The Lord gave these instructions to Moses
on Mount Sinai when he commanded the
Israelites to present their offerings
to the Lord in the wilderness of Sinai.
Then the Lord said to Moses, bring Aaron
and his sons along with their sacred
garments, the anointing oil, the bull
for the sin, offering the two rams and
the basket of bread made without yeast.
And call the entire community
of Israel together at the
entrance of the tabernacle.
So Moses followed the Lord's
instructions and the whole community
assembled at the tabernacle entrance.
Moses announced to them, this is what
the Lord has come commanded us to do.
Then he presented Aaron and his
sons and washed them with water.
He put the official tunic on Aaron
and tied the sash around his waist.
He dressed him in the robe, placed the
ephod on him, and attached the ephod
securely with its decorative sash.
Then Moses placed the chess
piece on Aaron and put the rum
and the thumb in inside it.
He placed the turbine on Aaron's head and
attached the gold medallion, the badge
of holiness to the front of the turban,
just as the Lord had commanded him.
Then Moses took the anointing
oil and anointed the tabernacle
and everything in it.
Making them holy.
He sprinkled the oil on the altar
seven times, anointing it and all
its utensils, as well as the wash
basin and its stand making them holy.
Then he poured some of the anointing
oil on Aaron's head, anointing him
and making him holy for his work.
Next, Moses presented Aaron's sons.
He clothed them in their tunics.
Tied their sashes around them and put
their special head coverings on them
just as the Lord had commanded him.
Then Moses presented the
bull for the sin offering.
Aaron and his sons laid their hands on
the bull's head, and Moses slaughtered it.
Moses took some of the blood and
with his finger, he put it on the
four horns of the altar to purify it.
He poured out the rest of the
blood at the base of the altar.
Through this process, he made
the altar holy by purifying it.
Then Moses took all the fat around
the internal organs, the long
lobe of the liver and the two
kidneys and the fat around them,
and he burned it all on the altar.
He took the rest of the bull, including
its hide meat and dung, and burned
it on a fire outside the camp,
just as the Lord had commanded him.
Then Moses presented the
ram for the burnt offering.
Aaron and his sons laid their hands on
the Ram's head, and Moses slaughtered it.
Then Moses took the Ram's
blood and splattered it
against all sides of the altar.
Then he cut the ram into
pieces and he burned the head.
Some of its pieces and
the fat on the altar.
After washing the internal organs and the
legs with water, Moses burned the entire
ram on the altar as a burnt offering.
It was a pleasing aroma, a special
gift presented to the Lord just
as the Lord had commanded him.
The then Moses presented the other
ram, which was the ram of ordination.
Aaron and his sons laid their hands on
the Ram's head, and Moses slaughtered it.
Then Moses took some of its blood
and applied it to the lobe of Aaron's
right ear, the thumb of his right hand,
and the big toe of his right foot.
Next, Moses presented Aaron's sons
and applied some of the blood to
the lobes of their right ears, the
thumbs of their right hands, and
the big toes of their right feet.
He then splattered the rest of the
blood against all sides of the altar.
Next, Moses took the fat.
Including the fat of the broad tail,
the fat around the internal organs,
the long lobe of the liver, and
the two kidneys and the fat around
them, along with the right thigh.
On top of these, he placed a thin
cake of bread made without yeast, a
cake of bread mixed with olive oil,
and a wafer spread with olive oil.
All these were taken from the basket
of bread made without yeast that
was placed in the Lord's presence.
He put all these in the hands of Aaron
and his sons, and he lifted these gifts
as a special offering to the Lord.
Moses then took all the offerings
back from them and burned them on the
altar on top of the burnt offering.
This was the ordination offering.
It was a pleasing aroma, a special
gift presented to the Lord.
Then Moses took the breast and lifted
it up as a special offering to the Lord.
This was Moses' portion
of the ram of ordination.
Just as the Lord had commanded him.
Next, Moses took some of the anointing
oil and some of the blood that
was on the altar, and he sprinkled
them on Aaron and his garments and
on his sons and their garments.
In this way, he made Aaron and
his sons and their garments holy.
Then Moses said to Aaron and his
sons, boil the remaining meat of
the offerings at the tabernacle
entrance and eat it there.
Along with the bread that is in
the basket of offerings for the
ordination, just as I commanded when
I said Aaron at his son's will eat it.
Any meat or bread that is left
over must then be burned up.
You must not leave the tabernacle entrance
for seven days for that is when the
ordination ceremony will be completed.
Everything we have done today was
commanded by the Lord in order to
purify you, making you right with him.
Now stay at the entrance of the
Tabernacle day and night for seven days
and do everything the Lord requires.
If you fail to do this, you will die
for this is what the Lord has commanded.
So Aaron and his sons did everything
the Lord had commanded through Moses.
