Good morning everyone, I hope you all have a happy preparation day. Exodus 30:1-32:34 The Scriptures 1998+ (1) “And you shall make an altar to burn incense on, make it of acacia wood, (2) a cubit long and a cubit wide – it is a square – and two cubits high, its horns of the same. (3) “And you shall overlay its top, and its sides all around, and its horns with clean gold. And you shall make for it a moulding of gold all around. (4) “And make two gold rings for it, under the moulding on both its sides. Make them on its two sides, and they shall be holders for the poles to lift it with. (5) “And you shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold. (6) “And you shall put it before the veil that is before the ark of the Witness, before the lid of atonement that is over the Witness, where I am to meet with you. (7) “And Aharon shall burn on it sweet incense, morning by morning. As he tends the lamps, he shall burn incense on it. (8) “And when Aharon lights the lamps between the evenings, he shall burn incense on it – a continual incense before יהוה throughout your generations. (9) “Do not offer strange incense on it, or a burnt offering, or a grain offering, and do not pour a drink offering on it. (10) “And Aharon shall make atonement upon its horns once a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonement – once a year he makes atonement upon it throughout your generations. It is most set-apart to יהוה.” (11) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (12) “When you take the census of the children of Yisra’ĕl, to register them, then each one shall give an atonement for his life to יהוה, when you register them, so that there is no plague among them when you register them. (13) “Everyone among those who are registered is to give this: half a sheqel according to the sheqel of the set-apart place, twenty gĕrahs being a sheqel. The half-sheqel is the contribution to יהוה. (14) “Everyone passing over to be registered, from twenty years old and above, gives a contribution to יהוה. (15) “The rich does not give more and the poor does not give less than half a sheqel, when you give a contribution to יהוה, to make atonement for yourselves. (16) “And you shall take the silver for the atonement from the children of Yisra’ĕl, and give it for the service of the Tent of Meeting. And it shall be to the children of Yisra’ĕl for a remembrance before יהוה, to make atonement for yourselves.” (17) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (18) “And you shall make a basin of bronze, with its stand also of bronze, for washing. And you shall put it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and shall put water in it. (19) “And Aharon and his sons shall wash from it their hands and their feet. (20) “When they go into the Tent of Meeting, or when they come near the altar to attend, to burn an offering made by fire to יהוה, they wash with water, lest they die. (21) “And they shall wash their hands and their feet, lest they die. And it shall be a law forever to them, to him and his seed throughout their generations.” (22) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (23) “And take for yourself choice spices, five hundred sheqels of liquid myrrh, and half as much – two hundred and fifty – of sweet-smelling cinnamon, and two hundred and fifty of sweet-smelling cane, (24) and five hundred of cassia, according to the sheqel of the set-apart place, and a hin of olive oil. (25) “And you shall make from these a set-apart anointing oil, a compound, blended, the work of a perfumer. It is a set-apart anointing oil. (26) “And with it you shall anoint the Tent of Meeting and the ark of the Witness, (27) and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, (28) and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin and its stand. (29) “And you shall set them apart, and they shall be most set-apart. Whatever touches them is to be set-apart. (30) “And you shall anoint Aharon and his sons, and set them apart, to serve as priests to Me. (31) “And speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘This is a set-apart anointing oil to Me throughout your generations. (32) ‘It shall not be poured on the flesh of a man, and make no other like it, according to its composition. It is set-apart, it is set-apart to you. (33) ‘Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on a stranger, shall be cut off from his people.’ ” (34) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Take sweet spices, fragrant gum and cinnamon and galbanam, and clear frankincense with these sweet spices, all in equal amounts. (35) “Then you shall make of these an incense, a compound, work of a perfumer, salted, clean, set-apart. (36) “And you shall beat some of it very fine, and put some of it before the Witness in the Tent of Meeting where I meet with you, it is most set-apart to you. (37) “And the incense which you make, do not make any for yourselves, according to its composition, it is set-apart to you for יהוה. (38) “Whoever makes any like it, to smell it, he shall be cut off from his people.” (31:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (2) “See, I have called by name Betsal’ĕl son of Uri, son of Ḥur, of the tribe of Yehuḏah, (3) and I have filled him with the Spirit of Elohim in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work, (4) to make designs for work in gold, and in silver, and in bronze, (5) and in cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, and to work in all work. (6) “And I, look I have appointed with him Oholiaḇ son of Aḥisamaḵ, of the tribe of Dan. And I have put wisdom in the hearts of everyone who is wise-hearted, and they shall make all that I have commanded you: (7) the Tent of Meeting, and the ark of the Witness and the lid of atonement that is on it, and all the utensils of the Tent, (8) and the table and its utensils, and the clean gold lampstand with all its utensils, and the altar of incense, (9) and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin and its stand, (10) and the woven garments, and the set-apart garments for Aharon the priest and the garments of his sons, for serving as priests, (11) and the anointing oil and sweet incense for the Set-apart Place. According to all that I have commanded you, they are to do.” (12) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (13) “And you, speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘My Sabbaths you are to guard, by all means, for it is a sign1 between Me and you throughout your generations, to know that I, יהוה, am setting you apart. Footnote: 1The only sign of יהוה setting us apart, the only sign of the everlasting covenant, is His Sabbaths, one of them being the seventh day Sabbath. This is repeated in Ezek. 20:12 & 20. (14) ‘And you shall guard the Sabbath, for it is set-apart to you. Everyone who profanes it shall certainly be put to death, for anyone who does work on it, that being shall be cut off from among his people. (15) ‘Six days work is done, and on the seventh is a Sabbath of rest, set-apart to יהוה. Everyone doing work on the Sabbath day shall certainly be put to death. (16) ‘And the children of Yisra’ĕl shall guard the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations as an everlasting covenant. (17) ‘Between Me and the children of Yisra’ĕl it is a sign forever. For in six days יהוה made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’ ” (18) And when He had ended speaking with him on Mount Sinai, He gave Mosheh two tablets of the Witness, tablets of stone, written with the finger of Elohim. (32:1) And when the people saw that Mosheh was so long in coming down from the mountain, the people gathered together to Aharon, and said to him, “Arise, make us mighty ones who go before us. For this Mosheh, the man who brought us up out of the land of Mitsrayim, we do not know what has become of him.” (2) And Aharon said to them, “Take off the golden earrings which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” (3) “And all the people took off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aharon. (4) And he took this from their hand, and he formed it with an engraving tool, and made a moulded calf. And they said, “This is your mighty one, O Yisra’ĕl, that brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim!” (5) And Aharon saw and built an altar before it. And Aharon called out and said, “Tomorrow is a festival to יהוה.” (6) And they rose early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings. And the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. (7) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go, get down! For your people whom you brought out of the land of Mitsrayim have corrupted themselves. (8) “They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a moulded calf, and have bowed themselves to it and slaughtered to it, and said, ‘This is your mighty one, O Yisra’ĕl, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim!’ ” (9) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “I have seen this people, and see, it is a stiff-necked people! (10) “And now, let Me alone, that My wrath might burn against them and I consume them and I make of you a great nation.” (11) But Mosheh pleaded with יהוה his Elohim, and said, “יהוה, why does Your wrath burn against Your people whom You have brought out of the land of Mitsrayim with great power and with a strong hand? (12) “Why should the Mitsrites speak, and say, ‘For evil He brought them out to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth’? Turn from the heat of Your wrath, and relent from this evil to Your people. (13) “Remember Aḇraham, Yitsḥaq, and Yisra’ĕl, Your servants, to whom You swore by Yourself, and said to them, ‘I increase your seed like the stars of the heavens. And all this land that I have spoken of I give to your seed, and they shall inherit it forever.’ ” (14) And יהוה relented from the evil which He said He would do to His people. (15) And Mosheh turned and went down from the mountain, and in his hand were the two tablets of the Witness, tablets written on both their sides, written on the one and on the other. (16) And the tablets were the work of Elohim, and the writing was the writing of Elohim engraved on the tablets. (17) And Yehoshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted and he said to Mosheh, “A noise of battle in the camp!” (18) But he said, “It is not the sound of those who shout of might, nor is it the sound of those who cry out in weakness, but the sound of singing that I hear.” (19) And it came to be, as soon as he came near the camp, that he saw the calf and the dancing. And Mosheh’s displeasure burned, and he threw the tablets out of his hands and broke them at the foot of the mountain. (20) And he took the calf which they had made, and burned it in the fire, and ground it into powder, and scattered it on the face of the water and made the children of Yisra’ĕl drink it. (21) And Mosheh said to Aharon, “What did this people do to you that you have brought so great a sin upon them?” (22) And Aharon said, “Do not let the displeasure of my master burn. You know the people, that it is in evil. (23) “And they said to me, ‘Make us mighty ones who go before us. For this Mosheh, the man who brought us out of the land of Mitsrayim, we do not know what has become of him.’ (24) “And I said to them, ‘Whoever has gold, let them take it off.’ And they gave it to me, and I threw it into the fire, and this calf came out.” (25) And Mosheh saw that the people were let loose, for Aharon had let them loose, to their shame among their enemies. (26) And Mosheh stood in the entrance of the camp, and said, “Who is for יהוה? Come to me.” And all the sons of Lĕwi gathered themselves to him. (27) And he said to them, “Thus said יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕl: ‘Each one put his sword on his side, pass over to and fro from gate to gate in the camp, and each one slay his brother, and each one his friend, and each one his relative.’ ” (28) And the sons of Lĕwi did according to the word of Mosheh. And about three thousand men of the people fell that day. (29) And Mosheh said, “You are ordained for יהוה today – since each one has been against his son and his brother – so as to bring upon you a blessing today.” (30) And it came to be on the next day that Mosheh said to the people, “You, you have sinned a great sin. And now I am going up to יהוה – if I might atone for your sin.” (31) And Mosheh returned to יהוה and said, “Oh, these people have sinned a great sin, and have made for themselves a mighty one of gold! (32) “And now, if You would forgive their sin, but if not, please blot me out of Your book which You have written.” (33) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I blot him out of My book. (34) “And now, go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. See, My Messenger goes before you. And in the day of My visitation I shall visit their sin upon them.” Mat 6:9-13 Our Father who is in the heavens, let Your Name be set-apart, let Your Kingdom come, let Your desire be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. And lead us away from temptation, and deliver us from the wicked one – because Yours is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory, Forever. Amen. Num 6:22-27 YHWH bless you and guard you; YHWH make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; YHWH lift up His face upon you, and give you peace. Bradley T.
