Exodus 29:1-30:10 1 “Now this is what
you are to do for them to consecrate them so that they may minister as my priests. Take a young
bull and two rams without blemish;
2 and
bread made without yeast, and perforated cakes without yeast mixed with oil, and wafers without yeast spread
with oil – you are to make them using
fine wheat flour.
3 You are to put them in one basket and present
them in the basket, along with
the bull and the two rams.
4 “You are to present
Aaron and his sons at the entrance of the tent of meeting. You are to wash
them with water
5 and take the garments and clothe Aaron with the tunic,
the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastpiece; you are to fasten the ephod on him by using the skillfully woven waistband.
6 You are to put the turban on his head and put the holy diadem
on the turban.
7 You are to take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him.
8 You are to present his sons and clothe them with tunics
9 and wrap the sashes around Aaron and his sons
and put headbands on them, and so the ministry of priesthood will belong to them by a perpetual ordinance. Thus you are to consecrate
Aaron and his sons.
10 “You are to present the bull at the front of the tent of meeting, and Aaron and his sons are to put
their hands on the head
of the bull.
11 You are to kill the bull before the
Lord at the entrance to the tent of meeting
12 and take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar
with your finger; all the rest of
the blood you are to pour out at the base of the altar.
13 You are to take all the fat that covers the entrails, and the lobe
that is above the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and burn them
on the altar.
14 But the meat of the bull, its skin, and its dung you are to burn up
outside the camp.
It is the purification offering.
15 “You are to take one ram, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on the ram’s head,
16 and you are to kill the ram and take its blood and splash it all around on the altar.
17 Then you are to cut the ram into pieces and wash the entrails and its legs and put them on its pieces and on its head
18 and burn
the whole ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering
to the
Lord, a soothing aroma; it is an offering made by fire
to the
Lord.
19 “You are to take the second ram, and Aaron and his sons are to lay their hands on the ram’s head,
20 and you are to kill the ram and take some of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron, on the tip of the right ear of his sons, on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot,
and then splash the blood all around on the altar.
21 You are to take some of the blood that is on the altar and some of the anointing oil and sprinkle it
on Aaron, on his garments, on his sons, and on his sons’ garments with him, so that he may be holy,
he and his garments along with his sons and his sons’ garments.
22 “You are to take from the ram the fat, the fat tail, the fat that covers the entrails, the lobe
of the liver, the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and the right thigh – for it is the ram for consecration
–
23 and one round flat cake of bread, one perforated cake of oiled bread, and one wafer from the basket of bread made without yeast that is before the
Lord.
24 You are to put all these
in Aaron’s hands
and in his sons’ hands, and you are to wave them as a wave offering
before the
Lord.
25 Then you are to take them from their hands and burn
them
on the altar for a burnt offering, for a soothing aroma before the
Lord. It is an offering made by fire to the
Lord.
26 You are to take the breast of the ram of Aaron’s consecration; you are to wave it as a wave offering before the
Lord, and it is to be your share.
27 You are to sanctify the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution,
which were waved and lifted up as a contribution from the ram of consecration, from what belongs to Aaron and to his sons.
28 It is to belong to Aaron and to his sons from the Israelites, by a perpetual ordinance, for it is a contribution. It is to be a contribution from the Israelites from their peace offerings, their contribution to the
Lord.
29 “The holy garments that belong to Aaron are to belong to his sons after him, so that they may be anointed
in them and consecrated
in them.
30 The priest who succeeds him
from his sons, when he first comes
to the tent of meeting to minister in the Holy Place, is to wear them for seven days.
31 “You are to take the ram of the consecration and cook
its meat in a holy place.
32 Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the bread that was in the basket at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
33 They are to eat those things by which atonement was made
to consecrate and to set them apart, but no one else
may eat them, for they are holy.
34 If any of the meat from the consecration offerings
or any of the bread is left over
until morning, then you are to burn up
what is left over. It must not be eaten,
because it is holy.
35 “Thus you are to do for Aaron and for his sons, according to all that I have commanded you; you are to consecrate them
for
seven days.
36 Every day you are to prepare a bull for a purification offering
for atonement.
You are to purge
the altar by making atonement
for it, and you are to anoint it to set it apart as holy.
37 For seven days
you are to make atonement for the altar and set it apart as holy. Then the altar will be most holy.
Anything that touches the altar will be holy.
38 “Now this is what you are to prepare
on the altar every day continually: two lambs a year old.
39 The first lamb you are to prepare in the morning, and the second lamb you are to prepare around sundown.
40 With the first lamb offer a tenth of an ephah
of fine flour mixed with a fourth of a hin
of oil from pressed olives, and a fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering.
41 The second lamb you are to offer around sundown; you are to prepare for it the same meal offering as for the morning and the same drink offering, for a soothing aroma, an offering made by fire to the
Lord.
42 “This will be a regular
burnt offering throughout your generations at the entrance of the tent of meeting before the
Lord, where I will meet
with you to speak to you there.
43 There I will meet
with the Israelites, and it will be set apart as holy by my glory.
44 “So I will set apart as holy
the tent of meeting and the altar, and I will set apart as holy Aaron and his sons, that they may minister as priests to me.
45 I will reside
among the Israelites, and I will be their God,
46 and they will know that I am the
Lord their God, who brought them out from the land of Egypt, so that I may reside among them. I am the
Lord their God.
1 “You are to make an altar for burning incense;
you are to make it of
acacia wood.
2 Its length is to be a foot and a half
and its width a foot and a half; it will be square. Its height is to be three feet,
with its horns of one piece with it.
3 You are to overlay it with pure gold – its top,
its four walls,
and its horns – and make a surrounding border of gold for it.
4 You are to make two gold rings for it under its border, on its two flanks; you are to make them on its two sides.
The rings
will be places
for poles to carry it with.
5 You are to make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
6 “You are to put it in front of the curtain that is before the ark of the testimony (before the atonement lid that is over the testimony), where I will meet you.
7 Aaron is to burn sweet incense
on it morning by morning; when he attends
to the lamps he is to burn incense.
8 When Aaron sets up the lamps around sundown he is to burn incense on it; it is to be a regular incense offering before the
Lord throughout your generations.
9 You must not offer strange incense on it, nor burnt offering, nor meal offering, and you must not pour out a drink offering on it.
10 Aaron is to make atonement on its horns once in the year with some of the blood of the sin offering for atonement;
once in the year
he is to make atonement on it throughout your generations. It is most holy to the
Lord.”
Context (NET) Matthew 26:14-46 14 Then one of the twelve, the one named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
15 and said, “What will you give me to betray him into your hands?”
So they set out thirty silver coins for him.
16 From that time
on, Judas
began looking for an opportunity to betray him.
17 Now on the first day of the feast of
Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus and said,
“Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
18 He
said, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is near. I will observe the Passover with my disciples at your house.”’”
19 So
the disciples did as Jesus had instructed them, and they prepared the Passover.
20 When
it was evening, he took his place at the table
with the twelve.
21 And while they were eating he said, “I tell you the truth,
one of you will betray me.”
22 They
became greatly distressed
and each one began to say to him, “Surely not I, Lord?”
23 He
answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me
will betray me.
24 The Son of Man will go as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had never been born.”
25 Then
Judas, the one who would betray him, said, “Surely not I, Rabbi?” Jesus
replied, “You have said it yourself.”
26 While
they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after giving thanks he broke it, gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat, this is my body.”
27 And after taking the cup and giving thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you,
28 for this is my blood, the blood
of the covenant,
that is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
29 I
tell you, from now on I will not drink of this fruit
of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”
30 After
singing a hymn,
they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 Then Jesus said to them, “This night you will all fall away because of me, for it is written: ‘
I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
32 But after I am raised, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
33 Peter
said to him, “If they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away!”
34 Jesus said to him, “I tell you the truth,
on this night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”
35 Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will never deny you.” And all the disciples said the same thing.
36 Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to the disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
37 He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and became anguished and distressed.
38 Then he said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, even to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake with me.”
39 Going a little farther, he threw himself down with his face to the ground and prayed,
“My Father, if possible,
let this cup
pass from me! Yet not what I will, but what you will.”
40 Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He
said to Peter, “So, couldn’t you stay awake with me for one hour?
41 Stay awake and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42 He went away a second time and prayed,
“My Father, if this cup
cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will must be done.”
43 He came again and found them sleeping; they could not keep their eyes open.
44 So leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same thing once more.
45 Then he came to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is approaching, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Get up, let us go. Look! My betrayer
is approaching!”
Context (NET) Psalm 31:19-24 19 How great is your favor,
which you store up for your loyal followers!
In plain sight of everyone you bestow it on those who take shelter
in you.
20 You hide them with you, where they are safe from the attacks
of men;
you conceal them in a shelter, where they are safe from slanderous attacks.
21 The
Lord deserves praise
for he demonstrated his amazing faithfulness to me when I was besieged by enemies.
22 I jumped to conclusions and said,
“I am cut off from your presence!”
But you heard my plea for mercy when I cried out to you for help.
23 Love the
Lord, all you faithful followers
of his! The
Lord protects those who have integrity, but he pays back in full the one who acts arrogantly.
24 Be strong and confident,
all you who wait on the
Lord!
Context (NET) Proverbs 8:14-26 14 Counsel and sound wisdom belong to me;
I possess understanding and might.
15 Kings reign by means of me, and potentates
decree
righteousness;
16 by me princes rule, as well as nobles and
all righteous judges.
17 I love
those who love me, and those who seek me find me.
18 Riches and honor are with me, long-lasting wealth and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than the purest gold,
and what I produce
is better than choice silver.
20 I walk in the path of righteousness, in the pathway of justice,
21 that I may cause
those who love me to inherit wealth, and that I may fill
their treasuries.
22 The
Lord created
me as the beginning
of his works,
before his deeds of long ago.
23 From eternity I was appointed,
from the beginning, from before the world existed.
24 When there were no deep oceans
I was born,
when there were no springs overflowing
with water;
25 before the mountains were set in place – before the hills – I was born,
26 before he made the earth and its fields,
or the beginning
of the dust of the world.
