The king gave some of his own possessions to the temple. He gave them for the morning and evening burnt offerings. He gave them for the burnt offerings for every Sabbath day. He gave them for the burnt offerings for every New Moon feast. And he gave them for the burnt offerings for every yearly appointed feast. He did it in keeping with what is written in the Law of the Lord.

The Lord said to Moses,“ Speak to the Israelites. Tell them,‘ Here are my appointed feast days. They are the appointed feast days of the Lord. Tell the people that they must come together for these sacred assemblies.“‘ There are six days when you can work. But the seventh day is a day of sabbath rest. You must rest on it. Come together on that sacred day. You must not do any work on it. No matter where you live, it is a Sabbath day to honor the Lord.“‘ Here are the Lord’ s appointed feasts. Tell the people that they must come together for these sacred gatherings at their appointed times.The Lord’ s Passover begins when the sun goes down on the 14th day of the first month.The Lord’ s Feast of Unleavened Bread begins on the 15th day of that month. For seven days you must eat bread made without yeast.On the first day you must come together for a special service. Do not do any regular work on that day.On each of the seven days bring a food offering to the Lord. On the seventh day come together for a special service. Do not do any regular work on that day.’ ”The Lord said to Moses,“ Speak to the Israelites. Tell them,‘ When you enter the land I am going to give you, bring an offering to the Lord. Gather your crops. Bring the first bundle of grain to the priest.He must lift up the grain and wave it in front of the Lord. Then the Lord will accept it from you. The priest must wave it on the day after the Sabbath.On the day he waves the grain for you, you must sacrifice a burnt offering to me. It must be a lamb that does not have any flaws.

Count off seven full weeks from that day.Count off 50 days up to the day after the seventh Sabbath. On that day bring to the Lord an offering of your first grain.Bring two loaves of bread that are made with seven pounds of the finest flour. They must be baked with yeast. Bring them to me as a wave offering from the first share of your crops. That applies no matter where you live.Together with the bread, bring seven male lambs. Each lamb must be a year old. It must not have any flaws. Also bring one young bull and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the Lord. They will be offered together with their grain offerings and drink offerings.

They will be given to the priest.On that same day tell the people that they must come together for a special worship service. They must not do any regular work. That is a law that will last for all time to come. It applies no matter where you live.“‘ Suppose you are gathering your crops. Then do not harvest all the way to the edges of your field. And do not pick up the grain you missed. Leave some for the poor people and the outsiders who live among you. I am the Lord your God.’ ”The Lord said to Moses,“ Say to the Israelites,‘ On the first day of the seventh month you must have a day of sabbath rest. It must be a special service announced with trumpet blasts.Do not do any regular work on that day. Instead, bring a food offering to the Lord.’ ”The Lord spoke to Moses. He said,“ The tenth day of the seventh month is the day when sin is paid for. Come together for a special service. Do not eat any food. Bring a food offering to the Lord.Do not do any work on that day. It is the day when sin is paid for. On that day your sin will be paid for in my sight. I am the Lord your God.Suppose you do eat food on that day. Then you will be separated from your people.I will destroy anyone among your people who does any work on that day.You must not do any work at all. This is a law that will last for all time to come. It applies no matter where you live.That day is a day of sabbath rest for you. You must rest on it. You must not eat anything on that day. You must follow the rules of the sabbath rest. Follow them from the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening.”The Lord said to Moses,“ Say to the Israelites,‘ On the 15th day of the seventh month the Lord’ s Feast of Booths begins. It lasts for seven days.On the first day you must come together for a special service. Do not do any regular work on that day.On each of the seven days bring a food offering to the Lord. On the eighth day come together for a special service. Bring a food offering to the Lord. That special service is the closing service. Do not do any regular work on that day.“‘ These are the Lord’ s appointed feasts. Tell the people that they must come together for these sacred assemblies. During those times, the people must bring food offerings to the Lord. They are burnt offerings and grain offerings. They are sacrifices and drink offerings. Each offering must be brought at its required time.The offerings are in addition to those of the days of sabbath rest. The offerings are also in addition to your gifts and anything you have promised. They are also in addition to all the offerings you choose to give to the Lord.“‘ Begin with the 15th day of the seventh month. That is after you have gathered your crops. On that day celebrate the Lord’ s Feast of Booths for seven days. The first day is a day of rest. The eighth day is also a day of rest.On the first day you must get branches from palms, willows and other leafy trees. You must be filled with joy in front of the Lord your God for seven days.Celebrate the Lord’ s Feast of Booths for seven days each year. This is a law that will last for all time to come. Celebrate the feast in the seventh month.Live in booths for seven days. All the Israelites must live in booths.Then your children after you will know that I made the Israelites live in booths. I made them do it after I brought them out of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’ ”So Moses announced to the Israelites the appointed feasts of the Lord.

Hezekiah, the king of Judah, provided 1,000 bulls and 7,000 sheep and goats for the community. The officials provided 1,000 bulls and 10,000 sheep and goats for them. A large number of priests set themselves apart to the Lord.

The Lord said to Moses,“ Here is a command I want you to give the Israelites. Tell them,‘ Make sure to present to me my food offerings. Do it at the appointed time. Their smell will please me.’Tell them,‘ Here is the food offering you must present to the Lord. Present to him two lambs a year old. They must not have any flaws. Present them as a regular burnt offering each day.Offer one lamb in the morning. Offer the other when the sun goes down.Present a grain offering along with them.

Pour out the drink offering to the Lord at the sacred tent.Offer the second lamb when the sun goes down.

Its smell pleases the Lord.“‘ On the Sabbath day, make an offering of two lambs. They must be a year old. They must not have any flaws. Sacrifice them along with their drink offering. Sacrifice them along with a grain offering of 16 cups of the finest flour. Mix it with olive oil.It is the burnt offering for every Sabbath day.

Solomon sacrificed friendship offerings to the Lord. He sacrificed 22,000 oxen. He also sacrificed 120,000 sheep and goats. So the king and the whole community set the temple of the Lord apart to him.On that same day the king set the middle area of the courtyard apart to the Lord. It was in front of the Lord’ s temple. There Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and grain offerings. He also sacrificed the fat of the friendship offerings there. He did it there because the bronze altar that stood in front of the Lord was too small. It wasn’t big enough to hold all the burnt offerings, the grain offerings and the fat of the friendship offerings.

From the eighth day on, the priests must bring your burnt offerings and friendship offerings. They must sacrifice them on the altar. Then I will accept you,’ announces the Lord and King.”

Solomon had built the Lord’ s altar. It stood in front of the temple porch. On that altar Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings to the Lord.Each day he sacrificed what the Law of Moses required. He sacrificed the required offerings every Sabbath day. He also sacrificed them at each New Moon feast and during the three yearly feasts. Those three were the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks and the Feast of Booths.

So let us never stop offering to God our praise through Jesus. Let us talk openly about our faith in him. Then our words will be like an offering to God.

With all my heart I want the temple of my God to be built. So I’m giving my personal treasures of gold and silver for it. I’m adding them to everything else I’ve provided for the holy temple.I’m giving 110 tons of gold and 260 tons of pure silver. Cover the walls of the buildings with it.Use it for the gold work and the silver work. Use it for everything the skilled workers will do. How many of you are willing to set yourselves apart to the Lord today?”Many people were willing to give. They included the leaders of families and the officers of the tribes of Israel. They included the commanders of thousands of men and commanders of hundreds. They also included the officials who were in charge of the king’s work.All of them gave to the work on God’s temple. They gave more than 190 tons of gold and 380 tons of silver. They also gave 675 tons of bronze and 3,800 tons of iron.Anyone who had valuable jewels added them to the treasure for the Lord’ s temple. Jehiel was in charge of the temple treasure. He was from the family line of Gershon.The people were happy when they saw what their leaders had been willing to give. The leaders had given freely. With their whole heart they had given everything to the Lord. King David was filled with joy.

Here is what I want you to do for the elders of the Jews. Here is how you must help them to build the house of their God. Pay all their expenses from the royal treasures. Use the money you collect from the people who live west of the Euphrates. Don’t let the work on the temple stop.Don’t fail to give the priests in Jerusalem what they ask for each day. Give them what they need. Give them young bulls, rams and male lambs. The priests can use them to sacrifice burnt offerings to the God of heaven. Also give them wheat, salt, wine and olive oil.

After David finished sacrificing those offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.He gave to each Israelite man and woman a loaf of bread. He also gave each one a date cake and a raisin cake.

He gave to each Israelite man and woman a loaf of bread. He also gave each one a date cake and a raisin cake. Then all the people went home.

Get rid of the old yeast. Then you can be like a new batch of dough without yeast. That is what you really are. That’s because Christ, our Passover Lamb, has been offered up for us.So let us keep the Feast, but not with the old bread made with yeast. The yeast I’m talking about is hatred and evil. Let us keep the Feast with bread made without yeast. Let us keep it with bread that is honesty and truth.

God is full of grace. From him we have all received grace in place of the grace already given.

When he went up to his place on high, he took many prisoners. He received gifts from people, even from those who refused to obey him. The Lord God went up to live on Mount Zion.

“ Has anyone ever given anything to God, so that God has to pay them back?”( Job 41:11)All things come from him. All things are directed by him. All things are for his praise. May God be given the glory forever! Amen.

Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices to the Lord.King Solomon sacrificed 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep and goats. So the king and all the people set the temple of God apart.

Then everyone God had inspired prepared to go. They wanted to go up to Jerusalem and build the Lord’ s temple there. They included the family leaders of Judah and Benjamin. They also included the priests and Levites.

Christ also suffered once for sins. The one who did what is right suffered for those who don’t do right. He suffered to bring you to God. His body was put to death. But the Holy Spirit brought him back to life.

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Everyone who eats some of this bread will live forever. This bread is my body. I will give it for the life of the world.”Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves. They said,“ How can this man give us his body to eat?”Jesus said to them,“ What I’m about to tell you is true. You must eat the Son of Man’s body and drink his blood. If you don’t, you have no life in you.Anyone who eats my body and drinks my blood has eternal life. I will raise them up on the last day.My body is real food. My blood is real drink.Anyone who eats my body and drinks my blood remains in me. And I remain in them.The living Father sent me, and I live because of him. In the same way, those who feed on me will live because of me.

Lead a life of love, just as Christ did. He loved us. He gave himself up for us. He was a sweet- smelling offering and sacrifice to God.

Do everything you say or do in the name of the Lord Jesus. Always give thanks to God the Father through Christ.

The entire community of Israel had gathered around King Solomon. All of them were in front of the ark. They sacrificed huge numbers of sheep and cattle. There were so many animals that they couldn’t be recorded. In fact, they couldn’t even be counted.

All rich people of the earth will feast and worship God. All who go down to the grave will kneel in front of him. Those who cannot keep themselves alive will kneel.

My mouth is dried up like a piece of broken pottery. My tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You bring me down to the edge of the grave.A group of sinful people has closed in on me. They are all around me like a pack of dogs. They have pierced my hands and my feet.Everyone can see all my bones right through my skin. People stare at me. They laugh when I suffer.They divide up my clothes among them. They cast lots for what I am wearing.Lord, don’t be so far away from me. You give me strength. Come quickly to help me.Save me from being killed by the sword. Save the only life I have. Save me from the power of those dogs.Save me from the mouths of those lions. Save me from the horns of those wild oxen.I will announce your name to my people. I will praise you among those who are gathered to worship you.You who have respect for the Lord, praise him! All you people of Jacob, honor him! All you people of Israel, worship him!He has not forgotten the one who is hurting. He has not turned away from his suffering. He has not turned his face away from him. He has listened to his cry for help.Because of what you have done, I will praise you in the whole community of those who worship you. In front of those who respect you, I will keep my promises.Those who are poor will eat and be satisfied. Those who seek the Lord will praise him. May their hearts be filled with new hope!

“ He himself carried our sins” in his body on the cross.( Isaiah 53:5) He did it so that we would die as far as sins are concerned. Then we would lead godly lives.“ His wounds have healed you.”( Isaiah 53:5)

The priests, who are Levites, worship at the holy tent. But we have an altar that they have no right to eat from.

Josiah provided animals for the Passover offerings. He gave them for all the people who were there. He gave a total of 30,000 lambs and goats and 3,000 oxen. He gave all of them from his own possessions.His officials also gave freely. They gave to the people and the priests and Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah and Jehiel were in charge of God’s temple. They gave the priests 2,600 Passover lambs and 300 oxen.
