| | 24:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
| | 24:2 Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil
olive
beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually. |
| | 24:3
Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation,
shall Aaron order it from the evening unto the morning before the LORD
continually: it shall be a statute for ever in your generations. |
| | 24:4
He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before the LORD
continually. |
| | 24:5
And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth
deals shall be in one cake. |
| | 24:6
And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table
before the LORD. |
| | 24:7
And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the
bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto the LORD. |
| | 24:8
Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being
taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant. |
(24:10-23)
OMG: A blasphemer is stoned to death
A man curses and blasphemes while disputing with another man. Moses asks God what to
do about it. God says that the whole community must stone him to death. "And the children of Israel did as the Lord
and Moses commanded."
