Exodus 39; Exodus 40; Leviticus 1; Leviticus 2; Leviticus 3; Leviticus 4
Holy garments are made for Aaron and the priests—The breastplate is made—The tabernacle of the congregation is finished—Moses blesses the people. The tabernacle is reared—Aaron and his sons are washed and anointed and given an everlasting priesthood—The glory of the Lord fills the tabernacle—A cloud covers the tabernacle by day, and fire rests on it by night. Animals without blemish are sacrificed as an atonement for sins—Burnt offerings are a sweet savor unto the Lord. How offerings of flour with oil and incense are made. Peace offerings are made with animals without blemish, whose blood is sprinkled on the altar—Israel is forbidden to eat fat or blood. Sinners are forgiven through sin offerings of animals without blemish—Priests thereby make an atonement for the sins of the people.
Often we take too narrow a view of life like the little twig on the end of furthest limb of a tree. It is vital with buds and blossoms full and fragrant. However, it would be foolish for that little twig to say it had no need of the limb. Cut from the tree it could not survive a single day but it would wither and die. Its beauty and fragrance gone. To be fragrant foliage we must remain attached to the source of our strength. We must study the words of the prophets in the scriptures.
