Lev Leviticus, chapter Book of Leviticus, chapter 24
The Lamp and the Bread of the Sanctuary
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Command the sons of Israel that they bring to you clear oil from beaten olives for the 24:2 Or luminarylight, to make a lamp 24:2 Lit ascendburn continually. Exo 27:20Outside the veil of the testimony in the tent of meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the Lord continually; it shall be a permanent statute throughout your generations. 1Sa 3:3; Exo 27:21He shall keep the lamps in order on the pure gold lampstand before the Lord continually.Exo 25:31; Jhn 1:7
“Then you shall take fine flour and bake twelve 24:5 I.e., ring-shaped bread loavescakes with it; 24:5 About 0.13 cubic feet or 0.004 cubic meterstwo-tenths of an ephah shall be in each cake. Exo 25:30; Mat 12:4; Luk 6:4And you shall set them in two rows, six to a row, on the pure gold table before the Lord. Exo 25:30You shall put pure frankincense on each row so that it may be a memorial portion for the bread, an offering by fire to the Lord. Jhn 6:35Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the Lord continually; it is an everlasting covenant 24:8 Lit fromfor the sons of Israel. Mat 12:5And it shall be for Aaron and his sons, and they shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him from the Lord’s offerings by fire, his portion forever.”Lev 8:31; Exo 29:32; Mat 12:4; Mrk 2:26
Now the son of an Israelite woman—his father was an Egyptian—went out among the sons of Israel; and the Israelite woman’s son and an Israelite man had a fight within the camp. And the son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name and cursed. So they brought him to Moses. (Now his mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.) Deu 28:58; Mat 9:3Then they put him in custody, waiting for Moses to give them a clear decision in accordance with the command of the Lord.Num 15:34
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Bring the one who has cursed outside the camp, and have all who heard him lay their hands on his head; then have all the congregation stone him. You shall also speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘If anyone curses his God, then he will bear the responsibility for his sin. Moreover, the one who blasphemes the name of the Lord must be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him. The stranger as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.Exo 20:7; Mat 26:65
An Eye for an Eye
‘Now if someone 24:17 Lit strikestakes any human life, he must be put to death. Exo 21:12But the one who 24:18 Lit strikestakes the life of an animal shall make restitution, life for life. If someone injures his neighbor, just as he has done, so shall it be done to him: Exo 21:24; Deu 19:21fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; just as he has injured a person, so shall it be 24:20 Lit giveninflicted on him. Exo 21:24; Deu 19:21; Mat 5:38So the one who 24:21 Lit strikes downkills an animal shall make restitution, but the one who 24:21 Lit strikes downkills a person shall be put to death. There shall be only one 24:22 Lit judgmentstandard for you; it shall be for the stranger as well as the native, for I am the Lord your God.’ ” Exo 12:49; Deu 1:16Then Moses spoke to the sons of Israel, and they brought the one who had cursed outside the camp, and stoned him with stones. So the sons of Israel did just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
