Hi, and welcome back
to His Words Are Life.
00:00:15.12\00:00:17.62
I'm Kelly Mowrer, and thank you
for coming apart with me to read
00:00:17.65\00:00:20.55
God's word together.
00:00:20.58\00:00:21.55
We've been reading in Exodus and
Leviticus about the sanctuary
00:00:21.56\00:00:26.53
service, and the sacrifices that
God laid out for the children
00:00:26.56\00:00:30.21
of Israel so many
thousands of years ago.
00:00:30.24\00:00:33.10
One of the things that we
were reading yesterday that
00:00:33.13\00:00:37.28
sort of jumped out at me
was how even in the most minute
00:00:37.31\00:00:40.89
details, over and over it says
Moses did as the Lord commanded.
00:00:40.92\00:00:44.90
So God gave a lot of very
small, detailed instructions,
00:00:44.93\00:00:50.84
and all along Moses and the
children of Israel, and Aaron,
00:00:50.87\00:00:54.19
it would say, and they
did as the Lord commanded.
00:00:54.22\00:00:56.37
Then we read just at the
close of yesterday about Nadab
00:00:56.40\00:00:59.71
and Abihu, and how they burned
strange fire before the Lord.
00:00:59.74\00:01:03.65
They didn't do as God commanded,
and the very awesome and swift
00:01:03.68\00:01:07.63
punishment of
death that fell on them.
00:01:07.66\00:01:09.42
I think sometimes it's
easy for me, and for all of us,
00:01:09.45\00:01:12.17
to forget that even the littlest
things that the Lord commands
00:01:12.20\00:01:15.63
us are to be
taken very seriously.
00:01:15.66\00:01:17.81
And through His power, and by
His grace we make our prayers of
00:01:17.84\00:01:22.60
sin, forgiveness, and confession
to Him and ask for His help
00:01:22.63\00:01:26.66
to obey in even
the smallest things.
00:01:26.69\00:01:28.46
Before we keep reading
this story, let's pray together.
00:01:28.49\00:01:30.31
Dear Jesus, thank You again for
this time to come apart and read
00:01:30.34\00:01:35.64
Your words.
00:01:35.67\00:01:36.64
Please help us to hear them
and may they not just be heard,
00:01:36.65\00:01:41.09
but may they take
root in our lives.
00:01:41.12\00:01:43.15
May we do them; may we obey
better through Your strength
00:01:43.18\00:01:47.26
and by Your power.
00:01:47.29\00:01:48.37
May we follow even the seemly
small things that You have
00:01:48.40\00:01:54.29
given us to do.
00:01:54.51\00:01:55.48
May we realize their importance
and do all that You command
00:01:55.49\00:01:59.31
to show our love for You.
00:01:59.34\00:02:00.73
We love You so much,
and thank You for loving us.
00:02:00.76\00:02:03.60
Amen.
00:02:03.63\00:02:04.60
We're reading again in the
book of Leviticus; picking up
00:02:04.61\00:02:07.46
chapter 10, and
starting with verse 7.
00:02:07.49\00:02:09.92
This is the King James Version.
00:02:09.95\00:02:11.34
And ye shall not go out from the
door of the tabernacle of the
00:02:11.37\00:02:15.29
congregation, lest ye die: for
the anointing oil of the Lord
00:02:15.32\00:02:18.69
is upon you.
00:02:18.72\00:02:19.69
And they did
according to the word of Moses.
00:02:19.70\00:02:22.28
And the Lord spake unto
Aaron, saying, Do not drink wine
00:02:22.31\00:02:25.68
nor strong drink,
thou, nor thy sons with thee,
00:02:25.71\00:02:28.78
when ye go into the
tabernacle of the congregation,
00:02:28.81\00:02:31.57
lest ye die: it shall be a
statute for ever throughout your
00:02:31.60\00:02:34.63
generations: and that ye
may put difference between holy
00:02:34.66\00:02:39.49
and unholy, and between unclean
and clean; and that ye may teach
00:02:39.52\00:02:44.42
the children of Israel all
the statutes which the Lord hath
00:02:44.45\00:02:47.46
spoken unto them
by the hand of Moses.
00:02:47.49\00:02:49.62
And Moses spake unto
Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto
00:02:49.65\00:02:53.70
Ithamar, his sons that were
left, Take the meat offering
00:02:53.73\00:02:57.57
that remaineth of the offerings
of the Lord made by fire,
00:02:57.60\00:03:00.40
and eat it without leaven beside
the altar: for it is most holy.
00:03:00.43\00:03:05.36
And ye shall eat it in the holy
place, because it is thy due,
00:03:05.39\00:03:09.53
and thy sons' due, of
the sacrifices of the Lord
00:03:09.56\00:03:12.93
made by fire: for
so I am commanded.
00:03:12.96\00:03:15.97
And the wave breast and heave
shoulder shall ye eat in a clean
00:03:16.00\00:03:20.94
place; thou, and thy sons,
and thy daughters with thee:
00:03:20.97\00:03:23.68
for they be thy
due, and thy sons' due,
00:03:23.71\00:03:26.37
which are given out of the
sacrifices of peace offerings
00:03:26.40\00:03:29.49
of the children of Israel.
00:03:29.52\00:03:30.83
The heave shoulder and the wave
breast shall they bring with the
00:03:30.86\00:03:34.43
offerings made by fire of
the fat, to wave it for a wave
00:03:34.46\00:03:38.58
offering before the
Lord; and it shall be thine,
00:03:38.61\00:03:41.81
and thy sons' with
thee, by a statute for ever;
00:03:41.84\00:03:44.17
as the Lord hath commanded.
00:03:44.20\00:03:46.16
And Moses diligently sought
the goat of the sin offering,
00:03:46.19\00:03:51.22
and, behold, it was burnt:
and he was angry with Eleazar
00:03:51.25\00:03:55.20
and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron
which were left alive, saying,
00:03:55.23\00:03:58.07
Wherefore have ye not eaten the
sin offering in the holy place,
00:03:58.10\00:04:01.23
seeing it is most holy,
and God hath given it you to
00:04:01.26\00:04:04.67
bear the iniquity of the
congregation, to make atonement
00:04:04.70\00:04:07.30
for them before the Lord?
00:04:07.33\00:04:08.35
Behold, the blood of it was
not brought in within the holy
00:04:08.38\00:04:12.22
place: ye should indeed
have eaten it in the holy place,
00:04:12.25\00:04:15.08
as I commanded.
00:04:15.11\00:04:16.22
And Aaron said unto Moses,
Behold, this day have they
00:04:16.25\00:04:20.69
offered their sin offering
and their burnt offering before
00:04:20.72\00:04:23.20
the Lord; and such
things have befallen me:
00:04:23.23\00:04:26.22
and if I had eaten
the sin offering today,
00:04:26.25\00:04:28.87
should it have been accepted
in the sight of the Lord?
00:04:28.90\00:04:31.08
And when Moses heard
that, he was content.
00:04:31.11\00:04:34.49
Continuing now in Leviticus
chapter 11, and this is the
00:04:34.52\00:04:38.51
King James Version.
00:04:38.54\00:04:39.51
And the Lord spake unto Moses
and to Aaron, saying unto them,
00:04:39.52\00:04:43.49
Speak unto the children of
Israel, saying, These are the
00:04:43.52\00:04:46.55
beasts which ye shall
eat among all the beasts
00:04:46.58\00:04:49.23
that are on the earth.
00:04:49.26\00:04:50.29
Whatsoever parteth the
hoof, and is cloven-footed,
00:04:50.32\00:04:54.80
and cheweth the cud, among
the beasts, that shall ye eat.
00:04:54.83\00:04:58.86
Nevertheless these shall ye not
eat of them that chew the cud,
00:04:58.89\00:05:02.92
or of them that divide the hoof:
as the camel, because he cheweth
00:05:02.95\00:05:06.19
the cud, but divideth not the
hoof; he is unclean unto you.
00:05:06.22\00:05:10.16
And the Coney,
because he cheweth the cud,
00:05:10.19\00:05:13.02
but divideth not the
hoof; he is unclean unto you.
00:05:13.05\00:05:15.44
And the hare, because he cheweth
the cud, but divideth not
00:05:15.47\00:05:17.97
the hoof; he is
unclean unto you.
00:05:18.00\00:05:20.11
And the swine, though he divide
the hoof, and be cloven-footed,
00:05:20.14\00:05:23.92
yet he cheweth not the
cud; he is unclean to you.
00:05:23.95\00:05:27.31
Of their flesh shall ye not eat,
and their carcass shall ye not
00:05:27.34\00:05:32.37
touch; they are unclean to you.
00:05:32.40\00:05:34.49
These shall ye eat of all that
are in the waters: whatsoever
00:05:34.52\00:05:38.79
hath fins and scales in
the waters, in the seas,
00:05:38.82\00:05:41.96
and in the
rivers, them shall ye eat.
00:05:41.99\00:05:44.46
And all that have not
fins and scales in the seas,
00:05:44.49\00:05:47.82
and in the rivers, of
all that move in the waters,
00:05:47.85\00:05:51.11
and of any living thing which is
in the waters, they shall be an
00:05:51.14\00:05:54.78
abomination unto you: they shall
be even an abomination unto you;
00:05:54.81\00:05:58.41
ye shall not eat of their
flesh, but ye shall have their
00:05:58.45\00:06:00.57
carcasses in abomination.
00:06:00.61\00:06:01.91
Whatsoever hath no fins
nor scales in the waters,
00:06:01.95\00:06:06.13
that shall be an
abomination unto you.
00:06:06.17\00:06:08.09
And these are they which ye
shall have in abomination among
00:06:08.13\00:06:11.95
the fowls; they shall not be
eaten, they are an abomination:
00:06:11.99\00:06:16.05
the eagle, and the ossifrage,
and the osprey, and the vulture,
00:06:16.08\00:06:20.11
and the kite after his kind;
every raven after his kind;
00:06:20.14\00:06:23.35
and the owl, and the night hawk,
and the cuckoo, and the hawk
00:06:23.38\00:06:26.38
after his kind, and the
little owl, and the cormorant,
00:06:26.42\00:06:28.71
and the great owl, and
the swan, and the pelican,
00:06:28.75\00:06:31.04
and the gier eagle, and the
stork, the heron after her kind,
00:06:31.07\00:06:34.43
and the lapwing, and the bat.
00:06:34.46\00:06:35.78
All fowls that
creep, going upon all four,
00:06:35.81\00:06:39.72
shall be an
abomination unto you.
00:06:39.76\00:06:42.12
Yet these may ye eat of every
flying creeping thing that goeth
00:06:42.16\00:06:46.67
upon all four, which
have legs above their feet,
00:06:46.70\00:06:50.00
to leap withal upon the earth;
even these of them ye may eat;
00:06:50.03\00:06:54.24
the locust after his kind, and
the bald locust after his kind,
00:06:54.27\00:06:58.44
and the beetle after his
kind, and the grasshopper
00:06:58.48\00:07:00.69
after his kind.
00:07:00.72\00:07:01.69
But all other flying creeping
things, which have four feet,
00:07:01.70\00:07:05.31
shall be an
abomination unto you.
00:07:05.35\00:07:06.95
And for these ye shall be
unclean: whosoever toucheth
00:07:06.99\00:07:09.95
the carcass of them shall
be unclean until the even.
00:07:09.98\00:07:12.87
And whosoever beareth ought of
the carcass of them shall wash
00:07:12.91\00:07:16.00
his clothes, and be
unclean until the even.
00:07:16.04\00:07:18.00
The carcasses of every
beast which divideth the hoof,
00:07:18.04\00:07:20.98
and is not cloven-footed
nor cheweth the cud,
00:07:21.02\00:07:23.22
are unclean unto you:
every one that toucheth them
00:07:23.25\00:07:27.23
shall be unclean.
00:07:27.27\00:07:28.72
And whatsoever goeth upon his
paws, among all manner of beasts
00:07:28.76\00:07:33.58
that go on all four,
those are unclean unto you:
00:07:33.62\00:07:36.26
whoso toucheth their carcass
shall be unclean until the even.
00:07:36.29\00:07:39.86
And he that beareth the carcass
of them shall wash his clothes,
00:07:39.90\00:07:43.43
and be unclean until the
even: they are unclean unto you.
00:07:43.47\00:07:46.88
These also shall be unclean unto
you among the creeping things
00:07:46.92\00:07:51.29
that creep upon the earth;
the weasel, and the mouse,
00:07:51.32\00:07:54.74
and the tortoise after
his kind, and the ferret,
00:07:54.78\00:07:57.97
and the
chameleon, and the lizard,
00:07:58.01\00:07:59.34
and the snail, and the mole.
00:07:59.37\00:08:00.69
These are unclean to
you among all that creep:
00:08:00.72\00:08:03.76
whosoever doth touch
them, when they be dead,
00:08:03.80\00:08:06.80
shall be unclean until the even.
00:08:06.83\00:08:08.58
And upon whatsoever any of them,
when they are dead, doth fall,
00:08:08.61\00:08:13.03
it shall be unclean; whether
it be any vessel of wood,
00:08:13.06\00:08:17.22
or raiment, or skin, or
sack, whatsoever vessel it be,
00:08:17.26\00:08:21.40
wherein any work is done,
it must be put into water,
00:08:21.43\00:08:25.53
and it shall be
unclean until the even;
00:08:25.57\00:08:27.58
so it shall be cleansed.
00:08:27.61\00:08:29.63
And every earthen vessel,
whereinto any of them falleth,
00:08:29.67\00:08:33.33
whatsoever is in it shall be
unclean; and ye shall break it.
00:08:33.36\00:08:38.02
Of all meat which may be eaten,
that on which such water cometh
00:08:38.06\00:08:42.62
shall be unclean: and all drink
that may be drunk in every such
00:08:42.65\00:08:47.18
vessel shall be unclean.
00:08:47.22\00:08:48.72
And every thing whereupon any
part of their carcass falleth
00:08:48.76\00:08:52.37
shall be unclean; whether
it be oven, or ranges for pots,
00:08:52.41\00:08:55.99
they shall be broken
down: for they are unclean,
00:08:56.03\00:08:58.75
and shall be unclean unto you.
00:08:58.79\00:09:00.51
Nevertheless a fountain or
pit, wherein there is plenty of
00:09:00.54\00:09:04.70
water, shall be clean: but that
which toucheth their carcass
00:09:04.74\00:09:08.86
shall be unclean.
00:09:08.90\00:09:09.96
And if any part of their carcass
fall upon any sowing seed
00:09:09.99\00:09:14.85
which is to be
sown, it shall be clean.
00:09:14.89\00:09:17.42
But if any water be put upon
the seed, and any part of their
00:09:17.46\00:09:20.98
carcass fall thereon, it
shall be unclean unto you.
00:09:21.01\00:09:24.32
And if any beast, of which ye
may eat, die; he that toucheth
00:09:24.35\00:09:30.00
the carcass thereof shall
be unclean until the even.
00:09:30.03\00:09:32.81
And he that eateth of
the carcass of it shall wash
00:09:32.85\00:09:35.59
his clothes, and be
unclean until the even:
00:09:35.62\00:09:37.58
he also that beareth the carcass
of it shall wash his clothes,
00:09:37.61\00:09:40.88
and be unclean until the even.
00:09:40.91\00:09:42.39
And every creeping thing
that creepeth upon the earth
00:09:42.42\00:09:46.30
shall be an abomination;
it shall not be eaten.
00:09:46.34\00:09:49.22
Whatsoever goeth upon the belly,
and whatsoever goeth upon all
00:09:49.25\00:09:53.05
four, or whatsoever hath more
feet among all creeping things
00:09:53.09\00:09:56.85
that creep upon the
earth, them ye shall not eat;
00:09:56.89\00:09:59.53
for they are an abomination.
00:09:59.57\00:10:01.45
Ye shall not make yourselves
abominable with any creeping
00:10:01.49\00:10:04.48
thing that creepeth, neither
shall ye make yourselves unclean
00:10:04.52\00:10:07.48
with them, that ye
should be defiled thereby.
00:10:07.51\00:10:09.83
For I am the Lord your
God: ye shall therefore sanctify
00:10:09.87\00:10:14.40
yourselves, and ye
shall be holy; for I am holy:
00:10:14.43\00:10:18.48
neither shall ye defile
yourselves with any manner of
00:10:18.52\00:10:21.48
creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth.
00:10:21.52\00:10:23.58
For I am the Lord that bringeth
you up out of the land of Egypt,
00:10:23.61\00:10:27.26
to be your God: ye
shall therefore be holy,
00:10:27.30\00:10:30.93
for I am holy.
00:10:30.96\00:10:33.09
This is the law of the
beasts, and of the fowl,
00:10:33.13\00:10:36.51
and of every living creature
that moveth in the waters,
00:10:36.54\00:10:39.27
and of every creature
that creepeth upon the earth:
00:10:39.30\00:10:42.55
To make a difference between
the unclean and the clean,
00:10:42.59\00:10:45.77
and between the beast that may
be eaten and the beast that may
00:10:45.81\00:10:50.49
not be eaten.
00:10:50.53\00:10:51.62
Continuing now in Leviticus,
chapter 12, and this is the
00:10:51.66\00:10:55.38
King James Version.
00:10:55.41\00:10:56.38
And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying, Speak unto the children
00:10:56.39\00:11:00.96
of Israel, saying, If a
woman have conceived seed,
00:11:01.00\00:11:03.58
and born a man child, then
she shall be unclean seven days;
00:11:03.61\00:11:07.76
according to the days of
the separation for her infirmity
00:11:07.80\00:11:11.91
shall be unclean.
00:11:11.95\00:11:13.25
And in the eighth day
the flesh of his foreskin
00:11:13.28\00:11:16.21
shall be circumcised.
00:11:16.25\00:11:17.30
And she shall then continue
in the blood of her purifying
00:11:17.34\00:11:20.62
three and thirty days; she
shall touch no hallowed thing,
00:11:20.65\00:11:23.90
nor come into the sanctuary,
until the days of her purifying
00:11:23.93\00:11:27.22
be fulfilled.
00:11:27.25\00:11:28.22
But if she bear a maid child,
then shall she be unclean two
00:11:28.23\00:11:32.45
weeks, as in her separation:
and she shall continue in the
00:11:32.48\00:11:36.78
blood of her purifying
threescore and six days.
00:11:36.82\00:11:39.61
And when the days of
her purifying are fulfilled,
00:11:39.65\00:11:42.70
for a son, or for a
daughter, she shall bring a lamb
00:11:42.73\00:11:45.72
of the first year for a burnt
offering, and a young pigeon,
00:11:45.75\00:11:48.96
or a turtledove, for a sin
offering, unto the door of the
00:11:49.00\00:11:52.18
tabernacle of the
congregation, unto the priest:
00:11:52.21\00:11:54.99
who shall offer it before
the Lord, and make an atonement
00:11:55.03\00:11:58.10
for her; and she shall
be cleansed from the issue
00:11:58.13\00:12:01.47
of her blood.
00:12:01.51\00:12:02.48
This is the law for her that
hath born a male or a female.
00:12:02.49\00:12:07.54
And if she be not able to bring
a lamb, then she shall bring two
00:12:07.58\00:12:11.25
turtles, or two young pigeons;
the one for the burnt offering,
00:12:11.29\00:12:14.93
and the other for a sin
offering: and the priest shall
00:12:14.97\00:12:17.98
make an atonement for
her, and she shall be clean.
00:12:18.01\00:12:20.95
We're continuing in the book
of Leviticus with chapter 13,
00:12:20.99\00:12:25.34
and this is the
King James Version.
00:12:25.38\00:12:26.76
And the Lord spake unto Moses
and Aaron, saying, When a man
00:12:26.80\00:12:30.47
shall have in the
skin of his flesh a rising,
00:12:30.50\00:12:33.32
a scab, or bright spot, and
it be in the skin of his flesh
00:12:33.36\00:12:36.50
like the plague of leprosy;
then he shall be brought unto
00:12:36.53\00:12:39.62
Aaron the priest, or unto
one of his sons the priests:
00:12:39.65\00:12:42.67
And the priest shall look on the
plague in the skin of the flesh:
00:12:42.71\00:12:45.33
and when the hair in
the plague is turned white,
00:12:45.36\00:12:48.17
and the plague in sight be
deeper than the skin of his
00:12:48.21\00:12:51.80
flesh, it is a plague of
leprosy: and the priest shall
00:12:51.84\00:12:55.40
look on him, and
pronounce him unclean.
00:12:55.43\00:12:58.34
If the bright spot be
white in the skin of his flesh,
00:12:58.38\00:13:02.46
and in sight be not deeper than
the skin, and the hair thereof
00:13:02.50\00:13:06.44
be not turned white; then the
priest shall shut up him that
00:13:06.48\00:13:10.32
hath the plague seven days:
and the priest shall look on him
00:13:10.35\00:13:14.16
the seventh day: and, behold,
if the plague in his sight
00:13:14.19\00:13:17.29
be at a stay, and the
plague spread not in the skin;
00:13:17.33\00:13:20.38
then the priest shall
shut him up seven days more:
00:13:20.42\00:13:23.41
and the priest shall look
on him again the seventh day:
00:13:23.44\00:13:26.38
and, behold, if the plague
be somewhat dark, and the plague
00:13:26.42\00:13:29.32
spread not in the skin,
the priest shall pronounce him
00:13:29.36\00:13:32.65
clean: it is but a scab:
and he shall wash his clothes,
00:13:32.69\00:13:35.95
and be clean.
00:13:35.98\00:13:36.95
But if the scab spread
much abroad in the skin,
00:13:36.96\00:13:40.40
after that he hath been seen
of the priest for his cleansing,
00:13:40.44\00:13:44.13
he shall be seen of the priest
again: and if the priest see
00:13:44.16\00:13:47.82
that, behold, the scab spreadeth
in the skin, then the priest
00:13:47.85\00:13:51.45
shall pronounce him
unclean: it is a leprosy.
00:13:51.48\00:13:54.42
When the plague of leprosy is in
a man, then he shall be brought
00:13:54.45\00:13:59.60
unto the priest; and the priest
shall see him: and, behold,
00:13:59.64\00:14:02.39
if the rising be white in
the skin, and it have turned the
00:14:02.42\00:14:05.82
hair white, and there be
quick raw flesh in the rising;
00:14:05.85\00:14:09.18
it is an old leprosy in the skin
of his flesh, and the priest
00:14:09.22\00:14:12.60
shall pronounce him unclean,
and shall not shut him up:
00:14:12.63\00:14:14.99
for he is unclean.
00:14:15.02\00:14:16.53
And if a leprosy break
out abroad in the skin,
00:14:16.56\00:14:19.34
and the leprosy cover all the
skin of him that hath the plague
00:14:19.38\00:14:22.26
from his head even to his foot,
wheresoever the priest looketh;
00:14:22.30\00:14:25.54
then the priest shall consider:
and, behold, if the leprosy have
00:14:25.57\00:14:28.96
covered all his flesh, he shall
pronounce him clean that hath
00:14:28.99\00:14:32.34
the plague: it is all
turned white: he is clean.
00:14:32.38\00:14:35.62
But when raw flesh appeareth
in him, he shall be unclean.
00:14:35.66\00:14:39.29
