Leviticus 24:1-8 ▼

1 The LORD spoke to Moses:

2 “Command the Israelites to bring you pure oil from crushed olives for the light, in order to keep the lamp burning regularly.

3 Aaron is to tend it continually from evening until morning before the LORD outside the curtain of the testimony in the tent of meeting. This is a permanent statute throughout your generations.

4 He must continually tend the lamps on the pure gold lampstand in the LORD’s presence.

5 “Take fine flour and bake it into twelve loaves; each loaf is to be made with four quarts.

6 Arrange them in two rows, six to a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.

7 Place pure frankincense near each row, so that it may serve as a memorial portion for the bread and a food offering to the LORD.

8 The bread is to be set out before the LORD every Sabbath day as a permanent covenant obligation on the part of the Israelites.
