For a long time Israel was without the true God, without a priest to teach and without the law.

For a long time Israel didn’t worship the true God. They didn’t have a priest who taught them. So they didn’t know God’s law.

For a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest and without law,

For a long time Israel was without the true God, without a priest to teach them, and without the Law to instruct them.

For many years Israel has been without the true God, without a teaching priest, and without instruction,

For many days Israel was without the true God and without a teaching priest and without the Law.

Now for a long season Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law:

For many years Israel has been without the true God, without a teaching priest, and without instruction,

Now for a long season Israel[ hath been] without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.

and that you may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord has spoken to them by the hand of Moses.”

For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim.

Therefore the king asked advice, made two calves of gold, and said to the people,“ It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Here are your gods, O Israel, which brought you up from the land of Egypt!”And he set up one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan.Now this thing became a sin, for the people went to worship before the one as far as Dan.He made shrines on the high places, and made priests from every class of people, who were not of the sons of Levi.Jeroboam ordained a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like the feast that was in Judah, and offered sacrifices on the altar. So he did at Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made. And at Bethel he installed the priests of the high places which he had made.So he made offerings on the altar which he had made at Bethel on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month which he had devised in his own heart. And he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and offered sacrifices on the altar and burned incense.

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.

to those who are without law, as without law( not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law;

“ For the lips of a priest should keep knowledge, And people should seek the law from his mouth; For he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts.

And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.So they said to him,“ In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet:

But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth will tremble, And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation.

They shall teach Jacob Your judgments, And Israel Your law. They shall put incense before You, And a whole burnt sacrifice on Your altar.

And Nehemiah, who was the governor, Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people,“ This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn nor weep.” For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the Law.

For they themselves declare concerning us what manner of entry we had to you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God,

And with them he sent Levites: Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah— the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.So they taught in Judah, and had the Book of the Law of the Lord with them; they went throughout all the cities of Judah and taught the people.

No priest shall drink wine when he enters the inner court.They shall not take as wife a widow or a divorced woman, but take virgins of the descendants of the house of Israel, or widows of priests.“ And they shall teach My people the difference between the holy and the unholy, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.

But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead.I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach;

Her heads judge for a bribe, Her priests teach for pay, And her prophets divine for money. Yet they lean on the Lord, and say,“ Is not the Lord among us? No harm can come upon us.”
