Chapter 7

7. [Lev 7:1-38 NKJV] 1 ‘Likewise this [is] the law of the trespass offering (it [is] most holy): 2 ‘In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the trespass offering. And its blood he shall sprinkle all around on the altar. 3 ‘And he shall offer from it all its fat. The fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails, 4 ‘the two kidneys and the fat that [is] on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe [attached] to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove; 5 ‘and the priest shall burn them on the altar [as] an offering made by fire to YHWH. It [is] a trespass offering. 6 ‘Every male among the priests may eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. It [is] most holy. 7 ‘The trespass offering [is] like the sin offering; [there is] one law for them both: the priest who makes atonement with it shall have [it]. 8 ‘And the priest who offers anyone’s burnt offering, that priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered. 9 ‘Also every grain offering that is baked in the oven and all that is prepared in the covered pan, or in a pan, shall be the priest’s who offers it. 10 ‘Every grain offering, [whether] mixed with oil or dry, shall belong to all the sons of Aaron, to one [as much] as the other. 11 ‘This [is] the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings which he shall offer to YHWH: 12 ‘If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer, with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers anointed with oil, or cakes of blended flour mixed with oil. 13 ‘Besides the cakes, [as] his offering he shall offer leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offering. 14 ‘And from it he shall offer one cake from each offering [as] a heave offering to YHWH. It shall belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offering. 15 ‘The flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day it is offered. He shall not leave any of it until morning. 16 ‘But if the sacrifice of his offering [is] a vow or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offers his sacrifice; but on the next day the remainder of it also may be eaten; 17 ‘the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day must be burned with fire. 18 ‘And if [any] of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering is eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, nor shall it be imputed to him; it shall be an abomination [to] him who offers it, and the person who eats of it shall bear guilt. 19 ‘The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. And as for the [clean] flesh, all who are clean may eat of it. 20 ‘But the person who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offering that [belongs] to YHWH, while he is unclean, that person shall be cut off from his people. 21 ‘Moreover the person who touches any unclean thing, [such as] human uncleanness, [an] unclean animal, or any abominable unclean thing, and who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offering that [belongs] to YHWH, that person shall be cut off from his people.’ ” 22 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 23 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘You shall not eat any fat, of ox or sheep or goat. 24 ‘And the fat of an animal that dies [naturally], and the fat of what is torn by wild beasts, may be used in any other way; but you shall by no means eat it. 25 ‘For whoever eats the fat of the animal of which men offer an offering made by fire to YHWH, the person who eats [it] shall be cut off from his people. 26 ‘Moreover you shall not eat any blood in any of your dwellings, [whether] of bird or beast. 27 ‘Whoever eats any blood, that person shall be cut off from his people.’ ” 28 Then YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 29 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offering to YHWH shall bring his offering to YHWH from the sacrifice of his peace offering. 30 ‘His own hands shall bring the offerings made by fire to YHWH. The fat with the breast he shall bring, that the breast may be waved [as] a wave offering before YHWH. 31 ‘And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. 32 ‘Also the right thigh you shall give to the priest [as] a heave offering from the sacrifices of your peace offerings. 33 ‘He among the sons of Aaron, who offers the blood of the peace offering and the fat, shall have the right thigh for [his] part. 34 ‘For the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the heave offering I have taken from the children of Israel, from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons from the children of Israel by a statute forever.’ ” 35 This [is] the consecrated portion for Aaron and his sons, from the offerings made by fire to YHWH, on the day when [Moses] presented them to minister to YHWH as priests. 36 YHWH commanded this to be given to them by the children of Israel, on the day that He anointed them, [by] a statute forever throughout their generations. 37 This [is] the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering, the trespass offering, the consecrations, and the sacrifice of the peace offering, 38 which YHWH commanded Moses on Mount Sinai, on the day when He commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to YHWH in the Wilderness of Sinai.

   1. [Jhn 2:13-22 KJV] 13 And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Yahusha went up to Jerusalem, 14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: 15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables; 16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise. 17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up. 18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? 19 Yahusha answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? 21 But he spake of the temple of his body. 22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Yahusha had said.

   2. [Exo 36:1-7 KJV] 1 Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom YHWH put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that YHWH had commanded. 2 And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whose heart YHWH had put wisdom, [even] every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it: 3 And they received of Moses all the offering, which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it [withal]. And they brought yet unto him free offerings every morning. 4 And all the wise men, that wrought all the work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they made; 5 And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which YHWH commanded to make. 6 And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing. 7 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.

   3. [2Ki 4:1-7 NKJV] 1 A certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared YHWH. And the creditor is coming to take my two sons to be his slaves.” 2 So Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” And she said, “Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.” 3 Then he said, “Go, borrow vessels from everywhere, from all your neighbors—empty vessels; do not gather just a few. 4 “And when you have come in, you shall shut the door behind you and your sons; then pour it into all those vessels, and set aside the full ones.” 5 So she went from him and shut the door behind her and her sons, who brought [the vessels] to her; and she poured [it] out. 6 Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “[There is] not another vessel.” So the oil ceased. 7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debt; and you [and] your sons live on the rest.”

   4. [Num 5:11-31 NKJV] 11 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying, 12 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘If any man’s wife goes astray and behaves unfaithfully toward him, 13 ‘and a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and it is concealed that she has defiled herself, and [there was] no witness against her, nor was she caught— 14 ‘if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he becomes jealous of his wife, who has defiled herself; or if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him and he becomes jealous of his wife, although she has not defiled herself— 15 ‘then the man shall bring his wife to the priest. He shall bring the offering required for her, one-tenth of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil on it and put no frankincense on it, because it [is] a grain offering of jealousy, an offering for remembering, for bringing iniquity to remembrance. 16 ‘And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before YHWH. 17 ‘The priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel, and take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put [it] into the water. 18 ‘Then the priest shall stand the woman before YHWH, uncover the woman’s head, and put the offering for remembering in her hands, which [is] the grain offering of jealousy. And the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that brings a curse. 19 ‘And the priest shall put her under oath, and say to the woman, “If no man has lain with you, and if you have not gone astray to uncleanness [while] under your husband’s [authority], be free from this bitter water that brings a curse. 20 “But if you have gone astray [while] under your husband’s [authority], and if you have defiled yourself and some man other than your husband has lain with you”— 21 then the priest shall put the woman under the oath of the curse, and he shall say to the woman—“YHWH make you a curse and an oath among your people, when YHWH makes your thigh rot and your belly swell; 22 “and may this water that causes the curse go into your stomach, and make [your] belly swell and [your] thigh rot.” Then the woman shall say, “Amen, so be it.” 23 ‘Then the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall scrape [them] off into the bitter water. 24 ‘And he shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and the water that brings the curse shall enter her [to become] bitter. 25 ‘Then the priest shall take the grain offering of jealousy from the woman’s hand, shall wave the offering before YHWH, and bring it to the altar; 26 ‘and the priest shall take a handful of the offering, as its memorial portion, burn [it] on the altar, and afterward make the woman drink the water. 27 ‘When he has made her drink the water, then it shall be, if she has defiled herself and behaved unfaithfully toward her husband, that the water that brings a curse will enter her [and become] bitter, and her belly will swell, her thigh will rot, and the woman will become a curse among her people. 28 ‘But if the woman has not defiled herself, and is clean, then she shall be free and may conceive children. 29 ‘This [is] the law of jealousy, when a wife, [while] under her husband’s [authority], goes astray and defiles herself, 30 ‘or when the spirit of jealousy comes upon a man, and he becomes jealous of his wife; then he shall stand the woman before YHWH, and the priest shall execute all this law upon her. 31 ‘Then the man shall be free from iniquity, but that woman shall bear her guilt.’ ”
