“Command the children of Israel that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn regularly.
Outside of the curtain of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting Aaron is to keep it in order from evening to morning before Yahweh continually; it is to be a statute forever throughout your generations.
He must tend the lamps on the pure gold menorah before Yahweh continually.
Bread for the Tabernacle
“You are to take fine flour and bake 12 cakes of it: two-tenths of an ephah are to be in each cake.
You are to set them in two stacks, six in a stack, on the pure gold table before Yahweh.
You are to put pure frankincense on each stack, that it may be a memorial portion for the bread, even an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
Every Sabbath day he is to set it in order before Yahweh continually. It is on the behalf of the children of Israel an everlasting covenant.
It will belong to Aaron and his sons, and they are to eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire—this is a perpetual statute.”
Punishment for Blasphemy
The son of an Israelite woman whose father was an Egyptian went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp.
The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name and cursed, and they brought him to Moses. His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
They put him in custody until the will of Yahweh should be declared to them.
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
“Bring out of the camp him who cursed, and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head and let all the congregation stone him.
You are to speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Anyone, anyone, who curses his God will bear his sin.’
But whoever blasphemes the name of Yahweh, he is to be put to death, yes, death. All the congregation is to stone, yes, stone him; the foreigner as well as the native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, is to be put to death!
An Eye for an Eye
“And if a man takes the life of any human being, he must be put to death, yes, death.
He who strikes an animal mortally is to make it good, life for life.
If anyone injures his neighbor, as he has done, so it is to be done to him:
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. As he has injured someone, so is it to be done to him.
He who kills an animal is to make restitution, but he who kills a human is to be put to death.
You are to have one kind of law, for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am Yahweh your God.”
Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and they brought out him who had cursed out of the camp and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as Yahweh commanded Moses.
