Leviticus 24:1–9
Olive Oil and Bread Set Before the Lord
24 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning continually. 3 Outside the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law in the tent of meeting, Aaron is to tend the lamps before the Lord from evening till morning, continually. This is to be a lasting ordinanceq for the generations to come. 4 The lamps on the pure gold lampstandr before the Lord must be tended continually.
5 “Take the finest flour and bake twelve loaves of bread,s using two-tenths of an ephaha t for each loaf. 6 Arrange them in two stacks, six in each stack, on the table of pure goldu before the Lord. 7 By each stack put some pure incensev as a memorialb portionw to represent the bread and to be a food offering presented to the Lord. 8 This bread is to be set out before the Lord regularly,x Sabbath after Sabbath,y on behalf of the Israelites, as a lasting covenant. 9 It belongs to Aaron and his sons,z who are to eat it in the sanctuary area,a because it is a most holyb part of their perpetual share of the food offerings presented to the Lord.”
