The Eleventh and Twelfth  Days for the Offerings of Dedication

On the eleventh day, Pagiel, son of Ocran, leader of the tribe of Asher, presented his offering. 

His offering consisted of a silver platter, weighing 3¼ pounds, and a silver basin, weighing 1¾ pounds (as measured by the weight of the sanctuary shekel). 

These were both filled with grain offerings, of choice flour, moistened with olive oil. 

He also brought a gold container, weighing four ounces, which was filled with incense. 

He brought a young bull, a ram, and a one-year-old male lamb, for a burnt offering, and a male goat, for a sin offering. 

For a peace offering, he brought two bulls, five rams, five male goats, and five one-year-old male lambs. 

This was the offering brought, by Pagiel, son of Ocran. 

On the twelfth day, Ahira, son of Enan, leader of the tribe of Naphtali, presented his offering. 

His offering consisted of a silver platter, weighing 3¼ pounds, and a silver basin weighing 1¾ pounds (as measured by the weight of the sanctuary shekel).

He also brought a gold container, weighing four ounces, which was filled with incense. 

He brought a young bull, a ram, and a one-year-old male lamb, for a burnt offering, and a male goat, for a sin offering. 

For a peace offering, he brought two bulls, five rams, five male goats, and five one-year-old male lambs.

1122 - Job Asks God How He Has Sinned

Job Asks God How He Has Sinned “O God, grant me these two things, …and then I will be able to face you. Remove Your heavy hand from me, and don’t terrify me with Your awesome presence. Now summon me, and I will answer! Or let me speak to You, and You reply. Tell me, what have I done wrong? Show me my rebellion, and my sin. Why do You turn away from me? Why do you treat me as Your enemy? Would You terrify a leaf blown by the wind? Would You chase dry straw? “You write bitter accusations against me, and bring up all the sins, of my youth. You put my feet in stocks. You examine all my paths. You trace all my footprints. I waste away like rotting wood, like a moth-eaten coat.   “How frail is humanity! How short is life, how full of trouble! We blossom like a flower, and then wither. Like a passing shadow, we quickly disappear. Must You keep an eye on such a frail creature, and demand an accounting from me? Who can bring purity …out of an impure person? No one! You have decided the leng...

1167 - Psalms 8 and 9

Psalms 8 and 9 Psalm 8 These are the instructions for the choir director: This is a psalm of David, to be accompanied by a stringed instrument. O Lord, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! Your glory is higher than the heavens. You have taught children and infants to tell of Your strength, silencing Your enemies and all who oppose You.

Yet, You made them only a little lower than God, and crowned them with glory and honor. You gave them charge, of everything You made, putting all things under their authority—the flocks and the herds, and all the wild animals, the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and all that swims the ocean currents. O Lord, our Lord, Your majestic name fills the earth! Psalm 9 These are the instructions for the choir director: this is a psalm o...

Moses Chooses Seventy Leaders

​ Moses Chooses Seventy Leaders The Lord said to Moses,  “Gather before Me …seventy men, who are recognized, as elders and leaders of Israel.  Bring them to the Tabernacle, to stand there with you.  I will come down and talk to you there.  I will take some of the Spirit …that is upon you, and I will put this Spirit, upon them.  They will bear the burden, of the people, along with you, so you will not have to carry it alone.  “And say to the people,  ‘Purify yourselves, for tomorrow you will have meat to eat.  You were whining, and the Lord heard you when you cried…  “Oh, for some meat!  We were better off in Egypt!”  Now the Lord will give you meat, and you will have to eat it.  And it won’t be for just a day …or two, or for five, or ten, or even twenty.  You will eat it for a whole month until you gag and are sick of it.  For you have rejected the Lord, Who is here among you, and you have whined to Him, saying, ...
