00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.980
 Good morning, everyone. It's a joy to worship with you. Please turn with me in your Bibles to Exodus chapter 29.

00:00:07.580 --> 00:00:12.599
 And if you don't have a Bible, raise your hand and we can bring a copy of it over to you that you can use while you're here.

00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:21.760
 Exodus chapter 29.

00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:26.120
 We'll be going through the whole chapter.

00:00:26.120 --> 00:00:32.780
 I'll also be referencing Exodus 30, 22 to 33, but I'm only going to read Exodus 29 at the beginning.

00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:37.399
 Let me pray for the reading and preaching of God's Word.

00:00:49.460 --> 00:00:53.560
 Father, we come to you and humble ourselves before you.

00:00:56.119 --> 00:01:07.219
 We incline our ears to hear from your Word because we believe that you speak to us and address us in your Word.

00:01:07.219 --> 00:01:12.439
 We want to be challenged.

00:01:12.700 --> 00:01:16.599
 We want to be comforted by the truths of the Scriptures.

00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:24.900
 We want to be reminded of your grace toward us in Jesus, our great high priest.

00:01:24.900 --> 00:01:31.900
 And we want to be a living sacrifice, acceptable and pleasing to you.

00:01:33.060 --> 00:01:39.380
 So please, even in this time of worship, consecrate us for yourself.

00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:42.560
 We ask in Jesus' name.

00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:43.820
 Amen.

00:01:43.819 --> 00:01:50.039
 If you are able, please stand with me for the reading of God's Word from Exodus 29.

00:01:50.040 --> 00:02:03.760
 Now, this is what you shall do to them to consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests.

00:02:04.420 --> 00:02:13.980
 Take one bull of the herd and two rams without blemish and unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers smeared with oil.

00:02:13.979 --> 00:02:16.340
 You shall make them a fine wheat flour.

00:02:16.780 --> 00:02:21.620
 You shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket and bring the bull and the two rams.

00:02:22.219 --> 00:02:26.939
 You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and wash them with water.

00:02:27.939 --> 00:02:37.219
 Then you shall take the garments and put on Aaron the coat and the robe of the ephod and the ephod and the breastpiece and gird him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod.

00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:42.079
 And you shall set the turban on his head and put the holy crown on the turban.

00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.500
 You shall take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him.

00:02:47.340 --> 00:02:49.940
 Then you shall bring his sons and put coats on them.

00:02:50.420 --> 00:02:54.360
 And you shall gird Aaron and his sons with sashes and bind caps on them.

00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.960
 And the priesthood shall be theirs by a statute forever.

00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:01.100
 Thus you shall ordain Aaron and his sons.

00:03:02.320 --> 00:03:05.140
 Then you shall bring the bull before the tent of meeting.

00:03:05.460 --> 00:03:08.200
 Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull.

00:03:08.460 --> 00:03:11.860
 Then you shall kill the bull before the Lord at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

00:03:12.340 --> 00:03:18.040
 And shall take part of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger.

00:03:18.460 --> 00:03:21.880
 And the rest of the blood you shall pour out at the base of the altar.

00:03:22.740 --> 00:03:29.800
 And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails and the long lobe of the liver and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them.

00:03:30.180 --> 00:03:31.420
 And burn them on the altar.

00:03:31.419 --> 00:03:36.979
 But the flesh of the bull and its skin and its dung you shall burn with fire outside the camp.

00:03:37.459 --> 00:03:38.739
 It is a sin offering.

00:03:39.859 --> 00:03:42.119
 Then you shall take one of the rams.

00:03:42.679 --> 00:03:45.799
 And Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram.

00:03:46.139 --> 00:03:50.599
 And you shall kill the ram and shall take its blood and throw it against the sides of the altar.

00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:57.240
 Then you shall cut the ram into pieces and wash its entrails and its legs and put them with its pieces and its head.

00:03:57.759 --> 00:03:59.620
 And burn the whole ram on the altar.

00:04:00.099 --> 00:04:01.680
 It is a burnt offering to the Lord.

00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:04.840
 It is a pleasing aroma of food offering to the Lord.

00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:10.400
 You shall take the other ram and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram.

00:04:10.640 --> 00:04:17.579
 And you shall kill the ram and take part of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron and on the tips of the right ears of his sons.

00:04:17.819 --> 00:04:21.639
 And on the thumbs of their right hands and on the great toes of their right feet.

00:04:21.840 --> 00:04:24.480
 And throw the rest of the blood against the sides of the altar.

00:04:25.280 --> 00:04:29.199
 Then you shall take part of the blood that is on the altar and of the anointing oil.

00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:34.100
 And sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments and on his sons and his sons garments with him.

00:04:34.100 --> 00:04:39.180
 He and his garments shall be holy and his sons and his sons garments with him.

00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:48.980
 You shall also take the fat from the ram and the fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails and the long lobe of the liver and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them.

00:04:49.200 --> 00:04:51.660
 And the right thigh for it is a ram of ordination.

00:04:52.140 --> 00:04:55.379
 And one loaf of bread and one cake of bread made with oil.

00:04:55.580 --> 00:04:59.300
 And one wafer out of the basket of unleavened bread that is before the Lord.

00:04:59.300 --> 00:05:06.280
 You shall put all these on the palms of Aaron and on the palms of his sons and wave them for a wave offering before the Lord.

00:05:07.060 --> 00:05:14.300
 Then you shall take them from their hands and burn them on the altar on top of the burnt offering as a pleasing aroma before the Lord.

00:05:14.660 --> 00:05:16.379
 It is a food offering to the Lord.

00:05:17.080 --> 00:05:22.060
 You shall take the breast of the ram of Aaron's ordination and wave it for a wave offering before the Lord.

00:05:22.060 --> 00:05:23.480
 And it shall be your portion.

00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:32.680
 And you shall consecrate the breast of the wave offering that is waved and the thigh of the priest's portion that is contributed from the ram of ordination from what was Aaron's and his sons.

00:05:33.540 --> 00:05:39.100
 It shall be for Aaron and his sons as a perpetual due from the people of Israel for it is a contribution.

00:05:39.819 --> 00:05:45.759
 It shall be a contribution from the people of Israel from their peace offerings, their contribution to the Lord.

00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:50.159
 The holy garments of Aaron shall be for his sons after him.

00:05:50.259 --> 00:05:53.300
 They shall be anointed in them and ordained in them.

00:05:53.719 --> 00:06:00.159
 The son who succeeds him as priest who comes into the tent of meeting to minister in the holy place shall wear them seven days.

00:06:00.719 --> 00:06:04.899
 You shall take the ram of ordination and boil its flesh in a holy place.

00:06:05.420 --> 00:06:11.279
 And Aaron and his son shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket in the entrance of the tent of meeting.

00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:16.579
 They shall eat those things with which atonement was made at their ordination and consecration.

00:06:16.979 --> 00:06:20.219
 But an outsider shall not eat of them because they are holy.

00:06:20.799 --> 00:06:28.279
 And if any of the flesh for the ordination or of the bread remain until the morning, then you shall burn the remainder with fire.

00:06:28.739 --> 00:06:31.019
 It shall not be eaten because it is holy.

00:06:32.139 --> 00:06:36.699
 Thus you shall do to Aaron and to his sons according to all that I have commanded you.

00:06:36.699 --> 00:06:39.819
 Through seven days shall you ordain them.

00:06:40.159 --> 00:06:43.680
 And every day you shall offer a bull as a sin offering for atonement.

00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:49.219
 Also you shall purify the altar when you make atonement for it and shall anoint it to consecrate it.

00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:55.060
 Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar and consecrate it and the altar shall be most holy.

00:06:55.779 --> 00:06:57.819
 Whatever touches the altar shall become holy.

00:06:58.719 --> 00:07:01.419
 Now, this is what you shall offer on the altar.

00:07:02.060 --> 00:07:05.180
 Two lambs a year old day by day regularly.

00:07:05.180 --> 00:07:09.319
 One lamb you shall offer in the morning and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight.

00:07:09.840 --> 00:07:17.519
 And with the first lamb a tenth measure of fine flour mingled with the fourth of a hen of beaten oil and a fourth of a hen of wine for a drink offering.

00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:26.960
 The other lamb you shall offer at twilight and shall offer with it a grain offering and its drink offering as in the morning for a pleasing aroma of food offering to the Lord.

00:07:28.060 --> 00:07:34.579
 It shall be a regular burnt offering throughout your generations at the entrance of the tent of meeting before the Lord.

00:07:34.579 --> 00:07:38.639
 Where I will meet with you to speak to you there.

00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:44.779
 There I will meet with the people of Israel and it shall be sanctified by my glory.

00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:48.519
 I will consecrate the tent of meeting and the altar.

00:07:49.419 --> 00:07:52.779
 Aaron also and his sons I will consecrate to serve me as priests.

00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:58.039
 I will dwell among the people of Israel and will be their God.

00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:06.760
 And they shall know that I am the Lord their God who brought them out of the land of Egypt that I might dwell among them.

00:08:07.379 --> 00:08:09.819
 I am the Lord their God.

00:08:10.420 --> 00:08:12.660
 This is God's holy and authoritative word.

00:08:12.740 --> 00:08:13.300
 You may be seated.

00:08:13.300 --> 00:08:26.780
 A few years ago when I was visiting a church member who was hospitalized during the COVID pandemic.

00:08:27.540 --> 00:08:35.399
 I remember visiting and the hospitals were at the time taking extra precautions for safety.

00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:41.720
 They gave me a brand new mask that I had to wear without which I could not enter the hospital.

00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:49.740
 And if I remember correctly they also asked if I was experiencing any symptoms of illness and took my temperature before letting me in.

00:08:50.620 --> 00:08:58.159
 Even after that I didn't get to go straight into the room where this church member was hospitalized lest I contaminate that room.

00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:07.299
 So I had to wait in the waiting room and a nurse went and escorted the church member out to the waiting room where I could meet with her across the table.

00:09:07.500 --> 00:09:13.360
 You couldn't there were also guidelines for how you can interact within the waiting room and only for a limited time.

00:09:14.319 --> 00:09:22.819
 It was a very unusual time and never before had I been as acutely aware of the dangers of spreading viruses.

00:09:22.820 --> 00:09:37.500
 Because of the vulnerability of the patients in the hospital, some of whom were immunocompromised, I was treated like a contaminant, a contagion, because I was a potential carrier of the virus.

00:09:39.640 --> 00:09:51.080
 Exodus 29 tells us about all the hoops that the priests had to jump through in order to be consecrated enough to minister at the tent of meeting, at the tabernacle,

00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:53.379
 as mediators for God's people.

00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:59.759
 And these priests must have felt something similar to what I felt during that hospital visit.

00:10:00.400 --> 00:10:08.040
 Not because the person they were meeting was sick, but because the person they were meeting, God, was holy.

00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:27.919
 The extensive process of washing and being clothed with special garments, anointing and sprinkling and sacrificing and eating that was required for the priests to be consecrated for service at the tabernacle would have communicated to them that they are a contagion.

00:10:29.079 --> 00:10:35.860
 They're a pollutant that required cleansing before they can approach the holy presence of God.

00:10:35.860 --> 00:10:39.419
 It's important to note that this is no mere formality.

00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:47.800
 God is not some bureaucratic overlord that just likes to clutter things with red tape that people to jump through and clear.

00:10:48.139 --> 00:10:49.740
 God is irreproachable.

00:10:49.860 --> 00:10:51.139
 He's beyond reproach.

00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:55.560
 And because of that, God is unapproachable in his holiness.

00:10:55.559 --> 00:11:04.439
 He can tolerate no one and no thing that is not purified or consecrated, set apart for him.

00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:12.959
 This is why only a commitment to a regular, ongoing sacrifice enables the priests to minister within the tabernacle.

00:11:13.659 --> 00:11:19.979
 Instead of glossing over these detailed requirements as tedious and wearisome, we need to see God's heart behind them.

00:11:19.980 --> 00:11:22.460
 Why God provides these sacrifices.

00:11:22.580 --> 00:11:26.180
 And we see that here in chapter 29, verses 43 to 46.

00:11:26.560 --> 00:11:28.820
 Please look in your Bibles, verses 43 to 46.

00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:30.560
 Follow along as I read it.

00:11:31.060 --> 00:11:36.659
 There I will meet with the people of Israel, and he shall be sanctified by my glory.

00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:40.100
 I will consecrate the tent of meeting and the altar.

00:11:40.899 --> 00:11:43.720
 Aaron also and his sons I will consecrate to serve me as priests.

00:11:43.980 --> 00:11:48.200
 I will dwell among the people of Israel and will be their God.

00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:54.820
 And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, that I might dwell among them.

00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:58.240
 I am the Lord their God.

00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:05.020
 Some of the most important recurring themes throughout the book of Exodus are all summarized here in these few verses.

00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:11.680
 The Lord's plan to make himself known to his people, as it says in verse 46, which has been repeated throughout the book.

00:12:12.140 --> 00:12:16.020
 His plan to be their God, which has been repeated throughout the book.

00:12:16.019 --> 00:12:22.120
 His plan to meet with them, which has been repeated throughout the account of the construction of the tent of meeting.

00:12:22.460 --> 00:12:28.240
 His plan to dwell among them, which has been repeated again and again throughout the tabernacle narrative as well.

00:12:28.340 --> 00:12:31.480
 In fact, the tabernacle means the dwelling place of God.

00:12:32.019 --> 00:12:38.799
 So note how all of these stated objectives of God, these explicit objectives that God gives us here in his word,

00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:47.259
 are all relational, to make himself known, to be their God, to meet with them, to dwell among them.

00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:54.979
 God's ultimate goal is to redeem a people for himself among whom he himself can dwell.

00:12:56.139 --> 00:12:59.079
 The sacrifices themselves are not the end.

00:12:59.779 --> 00:13:05.079
 They're just the means of getting there, a means for fellowship between God and man.

00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:11.960
 God did not create humans so that they'd make sacrifices and provide him with food while he rests,

00:13:12.580 --> 00:13:15.360
 as is the case in some pagan mythologies.

00:13:16.340 --> 00:13:21.840
 God did not mandate sacrificial rituals so that he could be entertained by us.

00:13:22.340 --> 00:13:26.860
 God is not going on a power trip demanding these sacrifices just because he can.

00:13:26.860 --> 00:13:35.879
 God made provisions for these sacrifices for our sake so that he might meet with us,

00:13:36.139 --> 00:13:41.220
 so that our sins might be atoned for, so that he can dwell with us.

00:13:42.340 --> 00:13:47.659
 That's why this passage is in the scriptures to teach us that God consecrates the priests

00:13:47.659 --> 00:13:51.019
 and the tent of meeting so that he might dwell among his people.

00:13:51.700 --> 00:13:53.800
 We're going to look at that main point in two parts.

00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:56.319
 First, we're going to look at the consecration of the priests and the altar.

00:13:57.019 --> 00:13:59.120
 And then secondly, we're going to look at the consecration of the Israelites.

00:14:00.199 --> 00:14:02.979
 That second point is going to be very short,

00:14:03.079 --> 00:14:05.919
 so don't despair if I spend most of my time in the first point.

00:14:08.379 --> 00:14:12.439
 Verses 1 to 2 give us the ingredients list, the materials list,

00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:14.299
 that you need for the consecration of the priests.

00:14:14.719 --> 00:14:15.079
 And it says,

00:14:15.219 --> 00:14:20.099
 To consecrate the priests for service, they need a bull, two unblemished lambs,

00:14:20.299 --> 00:14:23.099
 unleavened bread, unleavened cakes, and unleavened wafers.

00:14:23.100 --> 00:14:25.960
 We'll see their specific uses in the following verses,

00:14:26.100 --> 00:14:32.200
 but for now, we need to recognize how these are reminiscent of the Passover.

00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:35.620
 Remember, at the Passover, there's the unblemished lamb,

00:14:35.980 --> 00:14:39.779
 and there's the unleavened bread that's consumed by the Israelites.

00:14:40.100 --> 00:14:46.159
 When God goes through Egypt and judges eat the Egyptians and strikes down their firstborns,

00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.320
 but the Israelites' firstborn males are spared

00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.220
 because they had sacrificed an unblemished lamb and daubed its blood on their doors,

00:14:52.220 --> 00:14:57.060
 and that consumed the sacrifice and the unleavened bread.

00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:02.379
 And at the beginning of this passage, it reminds us of the Passover and the Exodus.

00:15:02.860 --> 00:15:06.200
 And at the end of this passage, in verse 46, it reminds us of the same,

00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:06.720
 where God says,

00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:15.840
 So this ties the Exodus and the tabernacle together.

00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:18.680
 This is God's way of telling the Israelites,

00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:23.799
 the same Yahweh, the Lord God, who with mighty signs and wonders delivered you

00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:25.899
 and redeemed you from your slavery in Egypt.

00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:31.019
 That very God is who I am, and I am going to dwell among you.

00:15:31.599 --> 00:15:36.799
 That mighty God, that Lord God himself is going to dwell in your very presence.

00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:40.959
 And the first step in consecrating a priest is the washing.

00:15:41.620 --> 00:15:42.399
 It says in verse 4,

00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:52.779
 So this, again, the mention of the entrance to the Tent of Meeting clearly communicates

00:15:52.779 --> 00:15:55.220
 that this is so that they can enter in.

00:15:55.779 --> 00:15:59.480
 This is purification before they can be in the presence of God.

00:16:00.299 --> 00:16:03.480
 And after this consecration period,

00:16:04.079 --> 00:16:08.120
 the priests would only be required to wash their hands and feet before they minister.

00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:12.039
 But at this occasion, it seems like they're getting a full-on bath.

00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:16.060
 It says that they're to wash them, their whole selves, with water.

00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:22.200
 And it's only after this ritual bath that they can put on the holy garments,

00:16:22.340 --> 00:16:24.860
 the priestly garments that we talked about last week,

00:16:25.060 --> 00:16:27.259
 which is the second step of the consecration,

00:16:27.379 --> 00:16:29.519
 being clothed with the special garments.

00:16:30.259 --> 00:16:31.340
 And after they are clothed,

00:16:31.419 --> 00:16:34.120
 verse 7 tells us that Moses is to take the anointing oil

00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:36.399
 and pour it on Aaron's head and anoint him.

00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:38.899
 Later on in Exodus 30,

00:16:39.019 --> 00:16:42.319
 we learn that Aaron's sons are also anointed with oil.

00:16:42.899 --> 00:16:44.079
 And not only Aaron's sons,

00:16:44.179 --> 00:16:47.000
 but also the furnishings and the Tent of Meeting itself

00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:49.759
 are also anointed with the anointing oil.

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:56.079
 However, at this point of the initial consecration of the priesthood,

00:16:56.459 --> 00:17:00.039
 it's only Aaron the high priest who is anointed with oil

00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:01.100
 and set apart in that way.

00:17:01.179 --> 00:17:02.759
 So this is a special anointing,

00:17:03.259 --> 00:17:05.259
 which is why throughout Leviticus,

00:17:05.259 --> 00:17:06.940
 the high priest,

00:17:07.460 --> 00:17:10.859
 Aaron and his people who would succeed him in that role,

00:17:11.379 --> 00:17:14.099
 is sometimes referred to as the anointed priest

00:17:14.099 --> 00:17:16.180
 to distinguish them from the other priests.

00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:18.700
 The high priest is the special priest.

00:17:20.140 --> 00:17:22.859
 And according to Exodus 30, 23, 24,

00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:25.759
 the anointing oil was to be a blended perfume,

00:17:26.259 --> 00:17:28.579
 not of common, ordinary spices,

00:17:28.900 --> 00:17:31.180
 but of the finest spices.

00:17:31.180 --> 00:17:31.620
 It says,

00:17:31.620 --> 00:17:32.799
 of liquid myrrh,

00:17:32.980 --> 00:17:34.400
 500 shekels,

00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:35.920
 and of sweet-smelling cinnamon,

00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:37.539
 half as much,

00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:38.740
 that is 250,

00:17:39.240 --> 00:17:41.740
 and 250 of aromatic cane,

00:17:41.840 --> 00:17:43.600
 and 500 of cassia,

00:17:44.019 --> 00:17:45.900
 according to the shekel of the sanctuary,

00:17:46.060 --> 00:17:48.000
 and a hen of olive oil.

00:17:48.660 --> 00:17:50.420
 Shekel is,

00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:53.940
 it's like 100 shekel is about two and a half pounds.

00:17:54.779 --> 00:17:56.740
 So if you add up the myrrh,

00:17:56.860 --> 00:17:57.299
 the cinnamon,

00:17:57.620 --> 00:17:59.240
 the aromatic cane,

00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:00.059
 and cassia,

00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:01.700
 that's 1,500 shekels,

00:18:01.880 --> 00:18:05.380
 which is 37.5 pounds worth of spices.

00:18:05.500 --> 00:18:07.000
 That's a lot of spices.

00:18:07.220 --> 00:18:09.000
 And they're supposed to mix all of that up

00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:10.460
 with a hen of olive oil.

00:18:11.019 --> 00:18:12.920
 A hen is about a gallon of olive oil.

00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:15.320
 So imagine a milk jug full of olive oil.

00:18:16.120 --> 00:18:18.200
 And considering that these are all spices

00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:20.299
 that weren't native to that land,

00:18:20.299 --> 00:18:22.659
 and were likely imported from other places

00:18:22.659 --> 00:18:25.639
 like modern-day Saudi Arabia or India,

00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:28.079
 they would have been extremely expensive

00:18:28.079 --> 00:18:29.519
 and precious,

00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:33.259
 and therefore unfamiliar to the ordinary Israelites.

00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:36.579
 Myrrh is a gum resin,

00:18:36.819 --> 00:18:38.339
 which is a thick, sticky substance

00:18:38.339 --> 00:18:39.799
 that oozes out of certain trees

00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:40.659
 when you cut it open.

00:18:41.220 --> 00:18:43.139
 It smells similar to licorice,

00:18:43.740 --> 00:18:44.720
 or anise,

00:18:45.259 --> 00:18:47.039
 has a sweet, spicy scent.

00:18:47.819 --> 00:18:48.139
 Cinnamon,

00:18:48.140 --> 00:18:50.820
 you guys are all hopefully familiar with.

00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:54.100
 Imagine the smell of cinnamon sticks

00:18:54.100 --> 00:18:55.180
 or cinnamon buns.

00:18:56.680 --> 00:18:57.840
 Sounds good right now.

00:18:58.300 --> 00:18:59.600
 Aromatic cane

00:18:59.600 --> 00:19:01.940
 is not a reference to sugar cane,

00:19:02.100 --> 00:19:04.060
 which would make it also delicious,

00:19:04.600 --> 00:19:05.980
 but to calamus,

00:19:06.460 --> 00:19:09.440
 a grass that gives a sweet scent,

00:19:09.540 --> 00:19:11.180
 an earthy, citrusy smell

00:19:11.180 --> 00:19:12.120
 when you crush it.

00:19:12.560 --> 00:19:14.360
 So the oil that's produced

00:19:14.360 --> 00:19:15.680
 from this aromatic cane

00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:17.259
 is called ginger grass.

00:19:17.259 --> 00:19:19.319
 It's very similar to lemongrass.

00:19:20.099 --> 00:19:22.440
 Cassia is a spice made from the bark

00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:24.420
 of certain East Asian evergreen trees.

00:19:24.539 --> 00:19:26.079
 It smells a lot like cinnamon,

00:19:26.579 --> 00:19:28.379
 so it's sometimes called Chinese cinnamon.

00:19:29.339 --> 00:19:30.519
 So the anointing oil

00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:32.059
 would have had a strong,

00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:35.900
 resinous, cinnamony, spicy scent,

00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:37.799
 very similar to the smells

00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:38.900
 associated with Christmas.

00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:42.680
 So like the resinous scent of pine trees,

00:19:43.359 --> 00:19:45.339
 the cinnamony aroma of mulled wine

00:19:45.339 --> 00:19:46.399
 and gingerbreads,

00:19:47.220 --> 00:19:49.959
 everything that this anointing oil touched

00:19:49.959 --> 00:19:51.240
 became holy.

00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:55.259
 God says in Exodus 30, 31 to 33,

00:19:55.659 --> 00:19:57.579
 this shall be my holy anointing oil

00:19:57.579 --> 00:19:58.579
 throughout your generations.

00:19:59.399 --> 00:20:00.679
 It shall not be poured

00:20:00.679 --> 00:20:02.579
 on the body of an ordinary person

00:20:02.579 --> 00:20:05.099
 and you shall make no other like it

00:20:05.099 --> 00:20:05.939
 in composition.

00:20:06.500 --> 00:20:07.379
 It is holy

00:20:07.379 --> 00:20:09.659
 and it shall be holy to you.

00:20:10.179 --> 00:20:12.139
 Whoever compounds any like it

00:20:12.140 --> 00:20:14.200
 or whoever puts any of it on an outsider

00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:16.060
 shall be caught off from his people.

00:20:17.340 --> 00:20:19.500
 This particular perfume mixture

00:20:19.500 --> 00:20:20.420
 of the anointing oil

00:20:20.420 --> 00:20:22.380
 was not to be reproduced

00:20:22.380 --> 00:20:24.080
 because it was to be associated

00:20:24.080 --> 00:20:25.860
 exclusively with the tabernacle

00:20:25.860 --> 00:20:28.060
 and it was not to be applied

00:20:28.060 --> 00:20:30.160
 to anything other than

00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:31.180
 the tabernacle itself

00:20:31.180 --> 00:20:32.620
 and it was not to be applied

00:20:32.620 --> 00:20:35.160
 to anyone apart from the priests

00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:36.340
 themselves who minister

00:20:36.340 --> 00:20:37.080
 in the tabernacle.

00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:38.539
 That's why the anointing oil

00:20:38.539 --> 00:20:39.599
 is called holy,

00:20:40.339 --> 00:20:41.659
 meaning it's set apart

00:20:41.659 --> 00:20:43.720
 for a special purpose.

00:20:44.639 --> 00:20:46.220
 If other things

00:20:46.220 --> 00:20:47.220
 and other people

00:20:47.220 --> 00:20:48.259
 smell the same,

00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:49.619
 it would no longer be special.

00:20:49.740 --> 00:20:51.779
 It would lose its sacred status.

00:20:52.599 --> 00:20:54.359
 Especially in the ancient Near East

00:20:54.359 --> 00:20:55.879
 where the climate is hot

00:20:55.879 --> 00:20:58.059
 and running water is rare.

00:20:58.759 --> 00:21:00.720
 It wasn't readily available

00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:01.839
 for frequent washing.

00:21:02.379 --> 00:21:03.259
 Most of you guys probably

00:21:03.259 --> 00:21:04.500
 took a shower this morning.

00:21:04.500 --> 00:21:07.299
 That is not possible all the time

00:21:07.299 --> 00:21:08.519
 in this context.

00:21:09.119 --> 00:21:10.740
 So imagine what you would smell

00:21:10.740 --> 00:21:12.039
 on an ordinary basis.

00:21:12.900 --> 00:21:14.140
 Sweaty body odor.

00:21:15.460 --> 00:21:17.000
 Thousands and thousands of people.

00:21:17.180 --> 00:21:18.220
 That's what you smell.

00:21:18.380 --> 00:21:20.420
 So you find one place

00:21:20.420 --> 00:21:22.460
 in the whole congregation of Israel

00:21:22.460 --> 00:21:24.240
 it smells different.

00:21:24.900 --> 00:21:25.819
 It smells sweet.

00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:27.500
 It smells of spice.

00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:28.539
 Cinnamon.

00:21:29.500 --> 00:21:30.099
 Gingerbread.

00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:33.099
 It sets the place apart.

00:21:34.500 --> 00:21:36.579
 You shall make no other

00:21:36.579 --> 00:21:37.579
 like it in composition.

00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:38.680
 You're supposed to make people

00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:39.980
 stand in awe of God

00:21:39.980 --> 00:21:41.259
 to recognize that

00:21:41.259 --> 00:21:42.380
 He is no common folk

00:21:42.380 --> 00:21:44.619
 but set apart from us.

00:21:45.660 --> 00:21:46.900
 It also served to distinguish

00:21:46.900 --> 00:21:48.259
 the priests of God

00:21:48.259 --> 00:21:49.039
 and in particular

00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:49.880
 the high priest

00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:51.160
 as set apart for God

00:21:51.160 --> 00:21:52.000
 in His dwelling place.

00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:53.299
 So imagine being

00:21:53.299 --> 00:21:54.059
 in that congregation

00:21:54.059 --> 00:21:56.299
 being in a room full of people

00:21:56.299 --> 00:21:58.920
 and then there's one person

00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:00.099
 who's wearing perfume.

00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:01.680
 Everybody else just smells

00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:02.420
 like body odor

00:22:02.420 --> 00:22:03.620
 but one person smells

00:22:03.620 --> 00:22:04.340
 like perfume.

00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:05.860
 That sets that person apart.

00:22:06.420 --> 00:22:07.160
 That's the purpose

00:22:07.160 --> 00:22:08.940
 of this anointing oil.

00:22:09.420 --> 00:22:09.980
 And usually

00:22:09.980 --> 00:22:11.820
 it was reserved for kings.

00:22:12.539 --> 00:22:13.960
 Kings were anointed with oil.

00:22:14.840 --> 00:22:15.820
 Prophet Samuel

00:22:15.820 --> 00:22:17.160
 anointed King David.

00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:18.539
 Zadok the priest

00:22:18.539 --> 00:22:19.800
 anointed King Solomon.

00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:21.380
 But in rare cases

00:22:21.380 --> 00:22:22.720
 prophets were also anointed.

00:22:23.060 --> 00:22:24.100
 Prophet Elisha

00:22:24.100 --> 00:22:25.880
 was anointed by Prophet Elijah.

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:28.060
 And as we see

00:22:28.060 --> 00:22:28.940
 in our passage this morning

00:22:28.940 --> 00:22:29.720
 it's the priests

00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:30.460
 who are anointed

00:22:30.460 --> 00:22:31.920
 with special oil.

00:22:32.080 --> 00:22:33.640
 Aaron the high priest

00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:34.420
 was anointed.

00:22:35.420 --> 00:22:36.340
 The anointing

00:22:36.340 --> 00:22:37.880
 sets the people apart.

00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:39.140
 No one else

00:22:39.140 --> 00:22:40.000
 can sit on the throne

00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:41.580
 except for

00:22:41.580 --> 00:22:43.220
 the anointed King.

00:22:44.060 --> 00:22:44.980
 No one else

00:22:44.980 --> 00:22:45.880
 can enter into

00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:46.940
 the holy place

00:22:46.940 --> 00:22:48.180
 to minister within

00:22:48.180 --> 00:22:49.020
 God's presence

00:22:49.020 --> 00:22:50.500
 except

00:22:50.500 --> 00:22:52.640
 for the anointed priest.

00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:54.120
 This is why

00:22:54.120 --> 00:22:54.940
 it is significant

00:22:54.940 --> 00:22:56.200
 that Jesus

00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:58.320
 the most common title

00:22:58.320 --> 00:22:59.340
 that is given to him

00:22:59.340 --> 00:23:01.040
 is the Christ

00:23:01.040 --> 00:23:02.140
 which means

00:23:02.140 --> 00:23:03.660
 anointed one.

00:23:04.360 --> 00:23:04.640
 He

00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:06.080
 and he alone

00:23:06.080 --> 00:23:07.259
 can sit on the throne

00:23:07.259 --> 00:23:07.720
 of David

00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:09.000
 as the Messianic King.

00:23:09.620 --> 00:23:10.600
 And Jesus alone

00:23:10.600 --> 00:23:11.520
 can go into

00:23:11.520 --> 00:23:12.240
 the heavenly

00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:13.340
 tabernacle

00:23:13.340 --> 00:23:14.259
 the temple

00:23:14.259 --> 00:23:15.320
 to minister

00:23:15.320 --> 00:23:16.600
 in God's presence

00:23:16.600 --> 00:23:17.759
 on behalf of his people.

00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:19.180
 Jesus

00:23:19.180 --> 00:23:19.880
 is the one

00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:20.420
 who goes

00:23:20.420 --> 00:23:21.700
 where we cannot go

00:23:21.700 --> 00:23:22.620
 and does

00:23:22.620 --> 00:23:23.700
 what we cannot

00:23:23.700 --> 00:23:24.440
 do.

00:23:25.559 --> 00:23:26.299
 That's why

00:23:26.299 --> 00:23:26.860
 we worship

00:23:26.860 --> 00:23:28.319
 Jesus as

00:23:28.319 --> 00:23:29.160
 the Christ

00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:30.340
 and sing

00:23:30.340 --> 00:23:31.460
 in Christ

00:23:31.460 --> 00:23:32.160
 alone

00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:33.279
 my hope

00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:34.319
 is found.

00:23:36.420 --> 00:23:37.380
 After Aaron

00:23:37.380 --> 00:23:38.019
 is anointed

00:23:38.019 --> 00:23:39.980
 and he and his sons

00:23:39.980 --> 00:23:40.759
 are fully clothed

00:23:40.759 --> 00:23:41.580
 in the holy garments

00:23:41.580 --> 00:23:42.860
 it says in verse 9

00:23:42.860 --> 00:23:44.200
 and the priesthood

00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:44.860
 shall be theirs

00:23:44.860 --> 00:23:46.100
 by a statute forever

00:23:46.100 --> 00:23:47.600
 meaning indefinitely

00:23:47.600 --> 00:23:48.500
 until it comes

00:23:48.500 --> 00:23:49.519
 to a time of fulfillment

00:23:49.519 --> 00:23:50.120
 in Christ.

00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:51.579
 Thus you shall

00:23:51.579 --> 00:23:52.539
 ordain Aaron

00:23:52.539 --> 00:23:53.479
 and his sons.

00:23:54.079 --> 00:23:54.519
 The word

00:23:54.519 --> 00:23:55.179
 ordain

00:23:55.179 --> 00:23:56.099
 is a very

00:23:56.099 --> 00:23:56.839
 interesting word.

00:23:56.939 --> 00:23:57.599
 It occurs again

00:23:57.599 --> 00:23:58.599
 in verse 35

00:23:58.599 --> 00:23:59.479
 through seven days

00:23:59.479 --> 00:24:00.639
 shall you ordain them.

00:24:00.959 --> 00:24:01.759
 So the two references

00:24:01.759 --> 00:24:03.419
 bracket this passage

00:24:03.419 --> 00:24:04.679
 where all the details

00:24:04.679 --> 00:24:05.419
 of the sacrifices

00:24:05.419 --> 00:24:05.899
 are given.

00:24:06.079 --> 00:24:07.000
 It's for their

00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:07.739
 ordination.

00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:09.279
 In Hebrew

00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:10.299
 the word ordain

00:24:10.299 --> 00:24:11.099
 literally means

00:24:11.099 --> 00:24:12.819
 to fill the hands of

00:24:12.819 --> 00:24:15.019
 to fill someone's hands

00:24:15.019 --> 00:24:15.839
 with something.

00:24:16.379 --> 00:24:16.919
 The expression

00:24:16.919 --> 00:24:18.619
 likely originates

00:24:18.619 --> 00:24:19.479
 from the practice

00:24:19.479 --> 00:24:20.339
 of ceremoniously

00:24:20.339 --> 00:24:21.639
 placing some

00:24:21.639 --> 00:24:22.919
 object or article

00:24:22.919 --> 00:24:24.819
 of authoritative office

00:24:24.819 --> 00:24:26.079
 into the hands

00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:26.779
 of the person

00:24:26.779 --> 00:24:27.699
 that's being appointed.

00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:28.819
 For example

00:24:28.819 --> 00:24:29.579
 in some parts

00:24:29.579 --> 00:24:30.399
 of the ancient world

00:24:30.399 --> 00:24:31.139
 when you give

00:24:31.139 --> 00:24:31.879
 the governor

00:24:31.879 --> 00:24:32.959
 a mandate

00:24:32.959 --> 00:24:33.639
 to govern

00:24:33.639 --> 00:24:34.739
 you will place

00:24:34.739 --> 00:24:35.619
 in his hands

00:24:35.619 --> 00:24:36.279
 the seal

00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:37.439
 of his governorship

00:24:37.439 --> 00:24:38.119
 which he can use

00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:38.839
 to authenticate

00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:39.459
 the documents

00:24:39.459 --> 00:24:39.939
 to make them

00:24:39.939 --> 00:24:40.959
 official and authoritative

00:24:40.959 --> 00:24:42.219
 and the cord

00:24:42.219 --> 00:24:43.319
 of governorship

00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:44.219
 which he would wear

00:24:44.219 --> 00:24:44.959
 upon himself

00:24:44.959 --> 00:24:46.039
 as a sign

00:24:46.039 --> 00:24:46.619
 as a symbol

00:24:46.619 --> 00:24:48.079
 of his authority.

00:24:48.479 --> 00:24:49.039
 So you would place

00:24:49.039 --> 00:24:49.519
 those things

00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:50.559
 into their hands.

00:24:51.259 --> 00:24:52.259
 So that's

00:24:52.259 --> 00:24:53.099
 the invest

00:24:53.099 --> 00:24:53.899
 word invest

00:24:53.899 --> 00:24:54.659
 kind of communicates

00:24:54.659 --> 00:24:55.239
 that investing

00:24:55.239 --> 00:24:56.339
 someone with authority

00:24:56.339 --> 00:24:57.059
 or clothing them

00:24:57.059 --> 00:24:57.759
 with the right garments

00:24:57.759 --> 00:24:59.000
 for authority

00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:00.479
 and this practice

00:25:00.479 --> 00:25:01.019
 is actually

00:25:01.019 --> 00:25:01.459
 where we get

00:25:01.459 --> 00:25:02.199
 the English word

00:25:02.199 --> 00:25:02.839
 mandate

00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:03.879
 which comes from

00:25:03.879 --> 00:25:04.699
 the Latin word

00:25:04.699 --> 00:25:06.439
 for hand and give

00:25:06.439 --> 00:25:07.359
 to mandate

00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:08.059
 to give someone

00:25:08.059 --> 00:25:08.519
 a mandate

00:25:08.519 --> 00:25:09.579
 to mandate someone

00:25:09.579 --> 00:25:10.539
 is to give

00:25:10.539 --> 00:25:11.699
 something into

00:25:11.699 --> 00:25:12.459
 their hands.

00:25:13.639 --> 00:25:14.179
 And so Aaron

00:25:14.179 --> 00:25:14.699
 and his sons

00:25:14.699 --> 00:25:16.159
 are here being ordained.

00:25:16.160 --> 00:25:17.380
 They're being mandated

00:25:17.380 --> 00:25:18.759
 charged with something

00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:20.759
 invested with authority

00:25:20.759 --> 00:25:22.220
 but what exactly

00:25:22.220 --> 00:25:23.060
 is their mandate?

00:25:24.060 --> 00:25:25.220
 What are their hands

00:25:25.220 --> 00:25:26.279
 being filled with?

00:25:26.840 --> 00:25:27.660
 So scan verses

00:25:27.660 --> 00:25:28.519
 10 to 25

00:25:28.519 --> 00:25:28.980
 with me

00:25:28.980 --> 00:25:30.779
 for the word hand

00:25:30.779 --> 00:25:32.140
 and its synonyms

00:25:32.140 --> 00:25:33.200
 and we'll see

00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:34.320
 exactly what's happening.

00:25:35.259 --> 00:25:35.759
 Verse 10

00:25:35.759 --> 00:25:36.820
 Aaron and his son

00:25:36.820 --> 00:25:38.220
 shall lay their hands

00:25:38.220 --> 00:25:39.279
 on the head

00:25:39.279 --> 00:25:40.140
 of the bull.

00:25:40.500 --> 00:25:41.080
 Verse 15

00:25:41.080 --> 00:25:41.860
 Aaron and his son

00:25:41.860 --> 00:25:43.060
 shall lay their hands

00:25:43.060 --> 00:25:43.940
 on the head

00:25:43.940 --> 00:25:45.040
 of the ram.

00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:45.879
 Verse 19

00:25:45.879 --> 00:25:46.779
 Aaron and his son

00:25:46.779 --> 00:25:47.940
 shall lay their hands

00:25:47.940 --> 00:25:49.240
 on the head

00:25:49.240 --> 00:25:49.980
 of the ram.

00:25:50.059 --> 00:25:50.299
 Again

00:25:50.299 --> 00:25:51.720
 verse 24 to 25

00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:52.779
 you shall put all these

00:25:52.779 --> 00:25:54.000
 on the palms of Aaron

00:25:54.000 --> 00:25:54.659
 and on the palms

00:25:54.659 --> 00:25:55.259
 of his sons

00:25:55.259 --> 00:25:56.259
 and wave them

00:25:56.259 --> 00:25:57.139
 for a wave offering

00:25:57.139 --> 00:25:57.740
 before the Lord

00:25:57.740 --> 00:25:58.680
 and you shall take them

00:25:58.680 --> 00:25:59.819
 from their hands

00:25:59.819 --> 00:26:00.680
 and burn them

00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:01.200
 on the altar

00:26:01.200 --> 00:26:02.299
 on top of the burnt offering

00:26:02.299 --> 00:26:03.220
 as a pleasing aroma

00:26:03.220 --> 00:26:04.059
 before the Lord.

00:26:04.940 --> 00:26:06.240
 What are Aaron and his son's

00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:07.399
 hands being filled with?

00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:08.960
 The sacrifices

00:26:08.960 --> 00:26:10.740
 and the offerings

00:26:10.740 --> 00:26:12.039
 on behalf

00:26:12.039 --> 00:26:12.799
 of God's people.

00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:14.839
 Bulls and rams

00:26:14.839 --> 00:26:15.559
 are too big

00:26:15.559 --> 00:26:16.099
 to literally

00:26:16.099 --> 00:26:17.379
 fill their hands with

00:26:17.379 --> 00:26:18.740
 so they just

00:26:18.740 --> 00:26:19.680
 lay their hands

00:26:19.680 --> 00:26:20.539
 simply

00:26:20.539 --> 00:26:21.559
 on the heads

00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:22.079
 of the animals

00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:22.879
 to identify

00:26:22.879 --> 00:26:24.099
 with that animal

00:26:24.099 --> 00:26:24.659
 saying

00:26:24.659 --> 00:26:25.960
 this is my charge

00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:26.720
 this belongs

00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:27.539
 to me.

00:26:28.299 --> 00:26:28.859
 This is not

00:26:28.859 --> 00:26:29.799
 a transference

00:26:29.799 --> 00:26:30.480
 of sin

00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:31.480
 from the priests

00:26:31.480 --> 00:26:33.039
 onto the animals

00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:34.339
 before the sacrifice

00:26:34.339 --> 00:26:35.559
 because it applies

00:26:35.559 --> 00:26:36.980
 even for sacrifices

00:26:36.980 --> 00:26:37.960
 that do not deal

00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:38.460
 with sin.

00:26:39.339 --> 00:26:39.819
 It's a way

00:26:39.819 --> 00:26:40.759
 of identifying

00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:41.879
 it's designating

00:26:41.879 --> 00:26:42.640
 the animals

00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:44.259
 as the priests

00:26:44.259 --> 00:26:44.819
 charge

00:26:44.819 --> 00:26:46.379
 to bring the sacrifices.

00:26:47.339 --> 00:26:48.240
 This is their

00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:49.099
 priestly mandate.

00:26:49.859 --> 00:26:50.640
 They are authorized

00:26:50.640 --> 00:26:51.220
 to minister

00:26:51.220 --> 00:26:52.019
 within the tent

00:26:52.019 --> 00:26:52.359
 of meeting

00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:53.359
 to make sacrifices

00:26:53.359 --> 00:26:54.119
 for God's people.

00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:56.099
 The following verses

00:26:56.099 --> 00:26:57.500
 give us a preview survey

00:26:57.500 --> 00:26:58.539
 of the various types

00:26:58.539 --> 00:26:59.319
 of sacrifices

00:26:59.319 --> 00:27:00.220
 that were offered.

00:27:01.119 --> 00:27:02.519
 It's later described

00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:03.379
 in more detail

00:27:03.379 --> 00:27:04.799
 in Leviticus 1-7

00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:05.720
 and there are

00:27:05.720 --> 00:27:06.640
 some discrepancies

00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:07.339
 between this

00:27:07.339 --> 00:27:08.819
 and Leviticus 1-7

00:27:08.819 --> 00:27:09.819
 because these are

00:27:09.819 --> 00:27:11.200
 the initial sacrifices

00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:11.859
 to consecrate

00:27:11.859 --> 00:27:12.439
 the priests

00:27:12.439 --> 00:27:13.980
 and those are

00:27:13.980 --> 00:27:14.559
 the subsequent

00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:15.339
 sacrifices

00:27:15.339 --> 00:27:16.059
 that would be given.

00:27:16.919 --> 00:27:17.599
 But there are

00:27:17.599 --> 00:27:18.379
 enough similarities

00:27:18.379 --> 00:27:19.059
 for it to be

00:27:19.059 --> 00:27:19.759
 a real preview.

00:27:20.439 --> 00:27:21.700
 First type of sacrifice

00:27:21.700 --> 00:27:22.439
 mentioned in verses

00:27:22.439 --> 00:27:23.299
 10-14

00:27:23.299 --> 00:27:24.720
 is the sin offering.

00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:26.539
 Aaron and his sons

00:27:26.539 --> 00:27:27.659
 are to lay their hands

00:27:27.659 --> 00:27:28.339
 on the head of the bull

00:27:28.339 --> 00:27:28.899
 then kill it

00:27:28.899 --> 00:27:29.439
 at the entrance

00:27:29.439 --> 00:27:30.220
 of the tent of meeting.

00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:31.319
 Then they are to put

00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:32.000
 some of the blood

00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:32.639
 on the horns

00:27:32.639 --> 00:27:33.220
 of the altar

00:27:33.220 --> 00:27:34.339
 and pour out the rest

00:27:34.339 --> 00:27:35.399
 at the base of the altar.

00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:37.119
 The organs and the fat

00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:38.000
 are to be burned up

00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:38.480
 on the altar

00:27:38.480 --> 00:27:39.240
 while the flesh

00:27:39.240 --> 00:27:39.740
 the skin

00:27:39.740 --> 00:27:40.220
 and the dung

00:27:40.220 --> 00:27:40.980
 are to be burned up

00:27:40.980 --> 00:27:42.039
 outside the camp.

00:27:43.180 --> 00:27:44.039
 And we learn later

00:27:44.039 --> 00:27:44.920
 in Leviticus 4

00:27:44.920 --> 00:27:45.900
 that sin offering

00:27:45.900 --> 00:27:46.640
 in particular

00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:48.440
 served to purify people

00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:50.420
 from unintentional sins

00:27:50.420 --> 00:27:52.019
 from the defiling effects

00:27:52.019 --> 00:27:53.140
 of unintentional sins.

00:27:53.819 --> 00:27:54.339
 It's appropriate

00:27:54.339 --> 00:27:55.819
 that the first sacrifice

00:27:55.819 --> 00:27:56.860
 during the consecration

00:27:56.860 --> 00:27:57.259
 of the priest

00:27:57.259 --> 00:27:58.200
 is a sin offering

00:27:58.200 --> 00:27:59.579
 because they must be

00:27:59.579 --> 00:28:01.019
 cleansed of their sins

00:28:01.019 --> 00:28:01.980
 even sins that they

00:28:01.980 --> 00:28:02.440
 didn't know

00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:03.240
 that they had committed

00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:04.480
 unwitting sins

00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:06.059
 before they can minister

00:28:06.059 --> 00:28:07.519
 in God's holy place.

00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:09.819
 The altar itself

00:28:09.819 --> 00:28:10.559
 is consecrated

00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:11.380
 during this process

00:28:11.380 --> 00:28:12.500
 with the application

00:28:12.500 --> 00:28:13.380
 of the blood

00:28:13.380 --> 00:28:13.960
 on the horn

00:28:13.960 --> 00:28:14.440
 and the base.

00:28:15.539 --> 00:28:16.559
 The second sacrifice

00:28:16.559 --> 00:28:17.420
 we see described

00:28:17.420 --> 00:28:18.819
 in verses 15 to 18.

00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:19.920
 Verse 18 calls it

00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:21.099
 a burned offering

00:28:21.099 --> 00:28:21.660
 to the Lord.

00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:22.920
 It is a pleasing aroma

00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:24.259
 of food offering.

00:28:25.059 --> 00:28:26.539
 It's not literal food

00:28:26.539 --> 00:28:27.000
 for God

00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:27.880
 that he eats.

00:28:28.380 --> 00:28:30.259
 It's a pleasing aroma.

00:28:30.819 --> 00:28:31.799
 God smells it.

00:28:31.799 --> 00:28:34.639
 And just as they did

00:28:34.639 --> 00:28:35.220
 with the bull

00:28:35.220 --> 00:28:36.399
 Aaron and his sons

00:28:36.399 --> 00:28:37.819
 are to lay their hands

00:28:37.819 --> 00:28:39.299
 on one of the rams

00:28:39.299 --> 00:28:40.139
 then kill it

00:28:40.139 --> 00:28:40.519
 at the entrance

00:28:40.519 --> 00:28:41.240
 of the tent of the meeting

00:28:41.240 --> 00:28:42.039
 and then they are

00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:42.779
 to throw its blood

00:28:42.779 --> 00:28:43.759
 against the size

00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:44.700
 of the altar this time

00:28:44.700 --> 00:28:45.839
 so now the whole altar

00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:46.379
 is covered

00:28:46.379 --> 00:28:47.259
 the horn, the size

00:28:47.259 --> 00:28:48.220
 and the base

00:28:48.220 --> 00:28:50.299
 and after this

00:28:50.299 --> 00:28:51.339
 the entire ram

00:28:51.339 --> 00:28:52.539
 the meat

00:28:52.539 --> 00:28:53.379
 the entrails

00:28:53.379 --> 00:28:53.960
 the legs

00:28:53.960 --> 00:28:54.579
 the head

00:28:54.579 --> 00:28:56.460
 is all to be burned up

00:28:56.460 --> 00:28:57.259
 on the altar.

00:28:58.259 --> 00:29:00.079
 As Lydicius 1.9 says

00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:00.960
 the burnt offering

00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:02.099
 is one of the most

00:29:02.099 --> 00:29:03.179
 costly kind of offering

00:29:03.179 --> 00:29:04.659
 because it consumes

00:29:04.659 --> 00:29:05.740
 the whole thing

00:29:05.740 --> 00:29:06.399
 completely.

00:29:06.519 --> 00:29:07.480
 Nothing is left over.

00:29:08.179 --> 00:29:08.819
 Pleasing aroma

00:29:08.819 --> 00:29:09.359
 to the Lord.

00:29:09.699 --> 00:29:10.480
 So a burnt offering

00:29:10.480 --> 00:29:11.019
 in this way

00:29:11.019 --> 00:29:13.000
 signifies Aaron

00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:14.099
 and his sons

00:29:14.099 --> 00:29:15.279
 being consecrated

00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:16.899
 completely for God's service.

00:29:17.699 --> 00:29:19.000
 Wholly given to the Lord

00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:19.839
 totally committed

00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:20.720
 to the Lord.

00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:22.839
 And then so having offered

00:29:22.839 --> 00:29:23.500
 the sin offering

00:29:23.500 --> 00:29:24.039
 for atonement

00:29:24.039 --> 00:29:24.960
 and the burnt offering

00:29:24.960 --> 00:29:25.740
 of consecration

00:29:25.740 --> 00:29:26.919
 the third sacrifice

00:29:26.919 --> 00:29:28.199
 is a wave offering

00:29:28.199 --> 00:29:28.960
 of fellowship.

00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:30.839
 We see later

00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:31.819
 in Leviticus 7

00:29:31.819 --> 00:29:32.740
 a wave offering

00:29:32.740 --> 00:29:34.419
 is a type of peace offering

00:29:34.419 --> 00:29:35.859
 or a fellowship offering.

00:29:36.659 --> 00:29:37.779
 It's distinctive

00:29:37.779 --> 00:29:38.899
 among the sacrifices

00:29:38.899 --> 00:29:39.679
 in that

00:29:39.679 --> 00:29:41.119
 some of its part

00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:41.819
 is eaten

00:29:41.819 --> 00:29:43.000
 by the priests

00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:43.779
 and the worshippers

00:29:43.779 --> 00:29:45.019
 representing their fellowship

00:29:45.019 --> 00:29:45.599
 with God.

00:29:46.639 --> 00:29:47.519
 So Aaron and his sons

00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:48.439
 are to lay their hands

00:29:48.439 --> 00:29:49.439
 on the other ram

00:29:49.439 --> 00:29:50.299
 that they have not yet

00:29:50.299 --> 00:29:50.799
 burned up

00:29:50.799 --> 00:29:51.379
 to kill it

00:29:51.379 --> 00:29:52.319
 and they are to

00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:53.039
 put its blood

00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:53.460
 this time

00:29:53.460 --> 00:29:54.319
 on the extremities

00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:54.960
 of Aaron

00:29:54.960 --> 00:29:55.699
 and his sons

00:29:55.699 --> 00:29:57.220
 on their right ear

00:29:57.220 --> 00:29:58.460
 on their right thumb

00:29:58.460 --> 00:30:00.660
 and on their right big toe

00:30:00.660 --> 00:30:02.680
 probably representing

00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:03.759
 their whole body

00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:04.660
 their whole selves

00:30:04.660 --> 00:30:06.180
 being cleansed

00:30:06.180 --> 00:30:08.720
 and consecrated for God.

00:30:09.519 --> 00:30:10.860
 So with consecrated ears

00:30:10.860 --> 00:30:12.059
 they are to listen to God

00:30:12.059 --> 00:30:13.680
 with consecrated feet

00:30:13.680 --> 00:30:15.019
 they go into God's presence

00:30:15.019 --> 00:30:15.519
 to serve

00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:17.279
 and with their consecrated hands

00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:18.279
 they serve and minister

00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:19.059
 at the table.

00:30:20.319 --> 00:30:21.980
 In future fellowship offerings

00:30:21.980 --> 00:30:22.660
 after the priests

00:30:22.660 --> 00:30:23.779
 are fully consecrated

00:30:23.779 --> 00:30:25.539
 the officiating priest

00:30:25.539 --> 00:30:26.180
 would receive

00:30:26.180 --> 00:30:27.380
 the right thigh

00:30:27.380 --> 00:30:27.860
 of the ram

00:30:27.860 --> 00:30:28.340
 to eat

00:30:28.340 --> 00:30:29.660
 and the other priests

00:30:29.660 --> 00:30:30.299
 would receive

00:30:30.299 --> 00:30:31.440
 the breast

00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:31.920
 of the ram

00:30:31.920 --> 00:30:32.279
 to eat

00:30:32.279 --> 00:30:33.180
 and the rest

00:30:33.180 --> 00:30:33.660
 of the meat

00:30:33.660 --> 00:30:34.259
 would be given

00:30:34.259 --> 00:30:35.720
 to the ordinary Israelites

00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:36.279
 to eat.

00:30:36.779 --> 00:30:37.940
 However on this occasion

00:30:37.940 --> 00:30:38.700
 because the priests

00:30:38.700 --> 00:30:39.820
 are not yet consecrated

00:30:39.820 --> 00:30:41.039
 it's Moses himself

00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:41.900
 who is consecrating

00:30:41.900 --> 00:30:42.380
 the priests

00:30:42.380 --> 00:30:43.900
 he takes the right thigh

00:30:43.900 --> 00:30:48.160
 and then the breast

00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:48.660
 is given

00:30:48.660 --> 00:30:49.759
 the breast is given

00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:50.600
 to Moses to eat

00:30:50.600 --> 00:30:51.039
 rather

00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:52.340
 and then the right thigh

00:30:52.340 --> 00:30:53.220
 is burned up

00:30:53.220 --> 00:30:54.980
 and then the proper offerings

00:30:54.980 --> 00:30:55.579
 are waived

00:30:55.579 --> 00:30:56.259
 before the Lord

00:30:56.259 --> 00:30:57.180
 presented to him

00:30:57.180 --> 00:30:57.960
 and then Aaron

00:30:57.960 --> 00:30:58.400
 and his sons

00:30:58.400 --> 00:30:59.500
 later get to partake

00:30:59.500 --> 00:31:00.799
 in the rest of the meat

00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:01.539
 as we see in verses

00:31:01.539 --> 00:31:03.240
 31 to 34.

00:31:04.440 --> 00:31:05.240
 And note that

00:31:05.240 --> 00:31:06.319
 this whole process

00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:07.860
 of ordaining

00:31:07.860 --> 00:31:09.779
 the priests

00:31:09.779 --> 00:31:10.920
 and consecrating them

00:31:10.920 --> 00:31:12.100
 and the altar

00:31:12.100 --> 00:31:13.620
 it takes seven days

00:31:13.620 --> 00:31:14.539
 that's repeated

00:31:14.539 --> 00:31:15.440
 three times

00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:16.120
 in this passage.

00:31:17.100 --> 00:31:18.660
 Verses 35 to 37

00:31:18.660 --> 00:31:19.579
 Thus you shall do

00:31:19.579 --> 00:31:20.000
 to Aaron

00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:20.680
 and to his sons

00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:21.799
 according to all

00:31:21.799 --> 00:31:22.839
 that I have commanded you

00:31:22.839 --> 00:31:24.359
 through seven days

00:31:24.359 --> 00:31:25.359
 shall you ordain them

00:31:25.359 --> 00:31:26.619
 and every day

00:31:26.619 --> 00:31:27.599
 you shall offer a bull

00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:28.299
 as a sin offering

00:31:28.299 --> 00:31:28.939
 for atonement

00:31:28.939 --> 00:31:30.419
 also you shall purify

00:31:30.419 --> 00:31:30.899
 the altar

00:31:30.899 --> 00:31:31.799
 when you make atonement

00:31:31.799 --> 00:31:32.199
 for it

00:31:32.199 --> 00:31:33.119
 and you shall anoint

00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:34.119
 it to consecrate it

00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:35.459
 seven days

00:31:35.459 --> 00:31:36.399
 you shall make atonement

00:31:36.399 --> 00:31:37.039
 for the altar

00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:38.139
 and consecrate it.

00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:39.579
 The number seven

00:31:39.579 --> 00:31:40.399
 is symbolic

00:31:40.399 --> 00:31:41.539
 of completeness

00:31:41.539 --> 00:31:42.439
 because God

00:31:42.439 --> 00:31:43.299
 created the world

00:31:43.299 --> 00:31:44.259
 in six days

00:31:44.259 --> 00:31:45.379
 and then rested

00:31:45.379 --> 00:31:46.699
 on the seventh day

00:31:46.699 --> 00:31:48.119
 so it was all finished

00:31:48.119 --> 00:31:49.359
 in seven days

00:31:49.359 --> 00:31:51.099
 and we're going

00:31:51.099 --> 00:31:51.699
 to look at this

00:31:51.699 --> 00:31:52.480
 a little more closely

00:31:52.480 --> 00:31:53.279
 in a couple weeks

00:31:53.279 --> 00:31:54.220
 but throughout

00:31:54.220 --> 00:31:55.420
 the tabernacle narrative

00:31:55.420 --> 00:31:57.700
 we find this phrase

00:31:57.700 --> 00:31:59.599
 Lord said to Moses

00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:01.740
 exactly seven times

00:32:01.740 --> 00:32:03.299
 six times

00:32:03.299 --> 00:32:04.180
 it is connected

00:32:04.180 --> 00:32:05.380
 to various instructions

00:32:05.380 --> 00:32:06.480
 regarding the construction

00:32:06.480 --> 00:32:07.299
 of the tabernacle

00:32:07.299 --> 00:32:09.140
 and on the seventh time

00:32:09.140 --> 00:32:10.039
 it is connected

00:32:10.039 --> 00:32:10.940
 to the instruction

00:32:10.940 --> 00:32:12.059
 regarding the Sabbath

00:32:12.059 --> 00:32:12.720
 again

00:32:12.720 --> 00:32:14.059
 Exodus 31

00:32:14.059 --> 00:32:15.319
 and that's intentional

00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:16.620
 so the construction

00:32:16.620 --> 00:32:17.500
 of the tabernacle

00:32:17.500 --> 00:32:18.980
 mirrors in one sense

00:32:18.980 --> 00:32:19.579
 the creation

00:32:19.579 --> 00:32:20.360
 of the world

00:32:20.359 --> 00:32:21.879
 it's kind of a

00:32:21.879 --> 00:32:23.619
 miniature universe

00:32:23.619 --> 00:32:24.599
 a new creation

00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:25.699
 that God

00:32:25.699 --> 00:32:26.579
 is bringing about

00:32:26.579 --> 00:32:28.299
 for the sake

00:32:28.299 --> 00:32:28.819
 of his people

00:32:28.819 --> 00:32:30.199
 and so it takes

00:32:30.199 --> 00:32:31.179
 seven days

00:32:31.179 --> 00:32:33.000
 completeness of days

00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:34.099
 for the priest

00:32:34.099 --> 00:32:34.879
 to be consecrated

00:32:34.879 --> 00:32:35.939
 it's not going to

00:32:35.939 --> 00:32:36.799
 take a few minutes

00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:37.479
 it's not going to

00:32:37.479 --> 00:32:38.219
 take a few hours

00:32:38.219 --> 00:32:39.779
 it's a rigorous process

00:32:39.779 --> 00:32:41.699
 because going into

00:32:41.699 --> 00:32:42.599
 the presence of God

00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:43.599
 and ministering there

00:32:43.599 --> 00:32:45.379
 is no small matter

00:32:45.380 --> 00:32:47.720
 and this process

00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:48.580
 of consecration

00:32:48.580 --> 00:32:49.720
 will have to be

00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:50.180
 repeated

00:32:50.180 --> 00:32:52.020
 generation

00:32:52.020 --> 00:32:53.460
 after generation

00:32:53.460 --> 00:32:54.600
 because Aaron

00:32:54.600 --> 00:32:55.660
 will eventually die

00:32:55.660 --> 00:32:57.700
 and his sons

00:32:57.700 --> 00:32:58.780
 will eventually die

00:32:58.780 --> 00:33:00.300
 and their sons

00:33:00.300 --> 00:33:01.240
 will have to succeed

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:01.660
 them

00:33:01.660 --> 00:33:02.880
 and them succeeded

00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:04.100
 by their sons

00:33:04.100 --> 00:33:05.320
 it says in verses

00:33:05.320 --> 00:33:06.340
 28 to 30

00:33:06.340 --> 00:33:07.360
 it shall be for Aaron

00:33:07.360 --> 00:33:07.860
 and his sons

00:33:07.860 --> 00:33:08.920
 as a perpetual due

00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:09.500
 from the people

00:33:09.500 --> 00:33:10.000
 of Israel

00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:11.640
 for it is a contribution

00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:13.240
 it shall be a contribution

00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:13.920
 from the people

00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:14.320
 of Israel

00:33:14.319 --> 00:33:15.339
 from their peace offerings

00:33:15.339 --> 00:33:16.019
 their contribution

00:33:16.019 --> 00:33:16.599
 to the Lord

00:33:16.599 --> 00:33:17.919
 the holy garments

00:33:17.919 --> 00:33:18.319
 of Aaron

00:33:18.319 --> 00:33:19.799
 shall be for his sons

00:33:19.799 --> 00:33:20.559
 after him

00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:22.039
 they shall be anointed

00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:22.779
 within them

00:33:22.779 --> 00:33:23.740
 and ordained in them

00:33:23.740 --> 00:33:25.399
 the son who succeeds

00:33:25.399 --> 00:33:26.240
 him as priest

00:33:26.240 --> 00:33:27.240
 who comes into

00:33:27.240 --> 00:33:27.899
 the tent and meeting

00:33:27.899 --> 00:33:29.339
 to minister in the holy place

00:33:29.339 --> 00:33:31.220
 shall wear them

00:33:31.220 --> 00:33:32.500
 seven days

00:33:32.500 --> 00:33:34.099
 this is

00:33:34.099 --> 00:33:35.659
 an important note

00:33:35.659 --> 00:33:36.059
 because

00:33:36.059 --> 00:33:37.700
 the succession plan

00:33:37.700 --> 00:33:39.079
 reminds us

00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:40.379
 that the Aaronic

00:33:40.379 --> 00:33:41.159
 priesthood

00:33:41.159 --> 00:33:42.839
 is only a provisional

00:33:42.839 --> 00:33:44.179
 and temporary

00:33:44.180 --> 00:33:44.740
 solution

00:33:44.740 --> 00:33:45.560
 to our problems

00:33:45.560 --> 00:33:47.640
 it offers

00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:48.700
 no ultimate

00:33:48.700 --> 00:33:50.320
 abiding solution

00:33:50.320 --> 00:33:51.519
 to the problem

00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:53.060
 of how a holy God

00:33:53.060 --> 00:33:54.320
 can dwell among

00:33:54.320 --> 00:33:55.360
 a sinful people

00:33:55.360 --> 00:33:57.560
 and it wasn't meant

00:33:57.560 --> 00:33:58.120
 to provide

00:33:58.120 --> 00:33:59.080
 a permanent solution

00:33:59.080 --> 00:34:00.140
 because it was only meant

00:34:00.140 --> 00:34:01.019
 to point

00:34:01.019 --> 00:34:02.420
 to the ultimate solution

00:34:02.420 --> 00:34:03.680
 that God provides

00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:04.600
 for us in Jesus

00:34:04.600 --> 00:34:06.420
 Hebrews 7

00:34:06.420 --> 00:34:07.539
 23 to 28

00:34:07.539 --> 00:34:08.260
 I want to project

00:34:08.260 --> 00:34:08.700
 that for you

00:34:08.700 --> 00:34:09.300
 on the screen

00:34:09.300 --> 00:34:09.920
 it says this

00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:10.960
 now there have been

00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:12.119
 many of those priests

00:34:12.119 --> 00:34:13.280
 since death

00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:14.260
 prevented them

00:34:14.260 --> 00:34:14.900
 from continuing

00:34:14.900 --> 00:34:15.539
 in office

00:34:15.539 --> 00:34:16.780
 but because

00:34:16.780 --> 00:34:17.980
 Jesus lives forever

00:34:17.980 --> 00:34:19.240
 he is a permanent

00:34:19.240 --> 00:34:19.860
 priesthood

00:34:19.860 --> 00:34:21.940
 therefore he is able

00:34:21.940 --> 00:34:23.220
 to save completely

00:34:23.220 --> 00:34:24.619
 those who come to God

00:34:24.619 --> 00:34:25.220
 through him

00:34:25.220 --> 00:34:27.019
 because he always

00:34:27.019 --> 00:34:28.300
 lives to intercede

00:34:28.300 --> 00:34:28.860
 for them

00:34:28.860 --> 00:34:30.360
 such a high priest

00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:31.260
 truly meets

00:34:31.260 --> 00:34:31.900
 our need

00:34:31.900 --> 00:34:33.000
 one who is holy

00:34:33.000 --> 00:34:33.559
 blameless

00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:34.019
 pure

00:34:34.019 --> 00:34:34.740
 set apart

00:34:34.740 --> 00:34:35.300
 from sinners

00:34:35.300 --> 00:34:36.579
 exalted above the heavens

00:34:36.579 --> 00:34:37.840
 unlike the other

00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:38.380
 high priests

00:34:38.380 --> 00:34:39.179
 he does not need

00:34:39.179 --> 00:34:40.239
 to offer sacrifices

00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:41.579
 day after day

00:34:41.579 --> 00:34:43.299
 first for his own sins

00:34:43.299 --> 00:34:44.119
 and then for the sins

00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:44.739
 of the people

00:34:44.739 --> 00:34:46.039
 he sacrificed

00:34:46.039 --> 00:34:46.840
 for their sins

00:34:46.840 --> 00:34:48.440
 once for all

00:34:48.440 --> 00:34:49.480
 when he offered

00:34:49.480 --> 00:34:50.139
 himself

00:34:50.139 --> 00:34:51.619
 for the law

00:34:51.619 --> 00:34:53.239
 appoints as high priests

00:34:53.239 --> 00:34:54.179
 men in all

00:34:54.179 --> 00:34:54.799
 their weakness

00:34:54.799 --> 00:34:56.059
 but the oath

00:34:56.059 --> 00:34:56.960
 which came after

00:34:56.960 --> 00:34:57.440
 the law

00:34:57.440 --> 00:34:58.960
 appointed the son

00:34:58.960 --> 00:35:00.319
 who has been made

00:35:00.319 --> 00:35:00.920
 perfect

00:35:00.920 --> 00:35:01.840
 forever

00:35:01.840 --> 00:35:04.699
 day after day

00:35:04.699 --> 00:35:06.159
 Aaron and his sons

00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:06.899
 needed to make

00:35:06.899 --> 00:35:08.199
 first sacrifices

00:35:08.199 --> 00:35:08.899
 for themselves

00:35:08.899 --> 00:35:09.519
 their own sins

00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:10.199
 and then again

00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:10.859
 for the sins

00:35:10.859 --> 00:35:11.440
 of the people

00:35:11.440 --> 00:35:13.039
 it's like the labors

00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:14.159
 of Sisyphus

00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:16.319
 in Greek mythology

00:35:16.319 --> 00:35:17.119
 there's a king

00:35:17.119 --> 00:35:17.819
 named Sisyphus

00:35:17.819 --> 00:35:18.519
 who reigned over

00:35:18.519 --> 00:35:19.219
 what is now

00:35:19.219 --> 00:35:20.179
 modern day Corinth

00:35:20.179 --> 00:35:21.299
 and the man

00:35:21.299 --> 00:35:21.899
 manages

00:35:21.899 --> 00:35:23.460
 to cheat death

00:35:23.460 --> 00:35:24.039
 twice

00:35:24.039 --> 00:35:26.480
 and the so called

00:35:26.480 --> 00:35:27.199
 god of death

00:35:27.199 --> 00:35:28.059
 Hades is angry

00:35:28.059 --> 00:35:29.399
 that this king

00:35:29.399 --> 00:35:30.099
 cheated death

00:35:30.099 --> 00:35:31.379
 and so he punishes him

00:35:31.379 --> 00:35:32.359
 so Sisyphus

00:35:32.359 --> 00:35:33.139
 has to roll

00:35:33.139 --> 00:35:34.480
 this huge boulder

00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:35.440
 up a hill

00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:36.820
 and every time

00:35:36.820 --> 00:35:37.300
 the boulder

00:35:37.300 --> 00:35:38.280
 nears the top

00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:39.099
 it just rolls

00:35:39.099 --> 00:35:39.880
 right back down

00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:40.840
 and he has to start

00:35:40.840 --> 00:35:41.639
 all over again

00:35:41.639 --> 00:35:43.139
 in endless cycle

00:35:43.139 --> 00:35:44.220
 and that's why

00:35:44.220 --> 00:35:44.980
 sometimes people

00:35:44.980 --> 00:35:46.280
 refer to

00:35:46.280 --> 00:35:47.559
 futile labors

00:35:47.559 --> 00:35:48.599
 and difficult labors

00:35:48.599 --> 00:35:49.659
 as Sisyphian

00:35:49.659 --> 00:35:51.740
 that's what

00:35:51.740 --> 00:35:53.000
 the Aaronic

00:35:53.000 --> 00:35:53.980
 priest's labors

00:35:53.980 --> 00:35:54.579
 were like

00:35:54.579 --> 00:35:57.260
 will there ever

00:35:57.260 --> 00:35:57.720
 be

00:35:57.720 --> 00:35:59.159
 an end

00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:00.740
 to this

00:36:00.740 --> 00:36:01.599
 interminable

00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:02.260
 work

00:36:02.260 --> 00:36:05.440
 more blood

00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:07.060
 more animals

00:36:07.060 --> 00:36:09.280
 more sprinkling

00:36:09.280 --> 00:36:12.180
 will God

00:36:12.180 --> 00:36:12.660
 ever

00:36:12.660 --> 00:36:13.840
 deliver us

00:36:13.840 --> 00:36:14.720
 decisively

00:36:14.720 --> 00:36:15.540
 from sin

00:36:15.540 --> 00:36:16.040
 and death

00:36:16.040 --> 00:36:18.440
 every time

00:36:18.440 --> 00:36:18.820
 they made

00:36:18.820 --> 00:36:19.420
 sacrifices

00:36:19.420 --> 00:36:20.220
 for sin

00:36:20.220 --> 00:36:20.980
 there would be

00:36:20.980 --> 00:36:21.400
 still

00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:22.400
 more sin

00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:23.020
 to deal with

00:36:23.020 --> 00:36:24.460
 on the following

00:36:24.460 --> 00:36:24.840
 day

00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:26.860
 every time

00:36:26.860 --> 00:36:29.380
 it was

00:36:29.380 --> 00:36:29.800
 ultimately

00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:30.380
 futile

00:36:30.380 --> 00:36:31.800
 because

00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:32.420
 Hebrews 10

00:36:32.420 --> 00:36:33.019
 4 tells us

00:36:33.019 --> 00:36:34.000
 it is impossible

00:36:34.000 --> 00:36:35.200
 for the blood

00:36:35.200 --> 00:36:36.059
 of bulls and goats

00:36:36.059 --> 00:36:37.019
 to take

00:36:37.019 --> 00:36:37.680
 away

00:36:37.680 --> 00:36:38.579
 sins

00:36:38.579 --> 00:36:40.260
 these sacrifices

00:36:40.260 --> 00:36:41.740
 were not meant

00:36:41.740 --> 00:36:42.620
 to be the solution

00:36:42.620 --> 00:36:43.079
 they were meant

00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:43.860
 to point to

00:36:43.860 --> 00:36:44.500
 God's ultimate

00:36:44.500 --> 00:36:44.960
 solution

00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:45.900
 in Jesus

00:36:45.900 --> 00:36:47.000
 our great

00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:47.680
 high priest

00:36:47.680 --> 00:36:48.599
 and Jesus

00:36:48.599 --> 00:36:49.820
 offers himself

00:36:49.820 --> 00:36:50.220
 up

00:36:50.220 --> 00:36:51.120
 his own life

00:36:51.120 --> 00:36:52.320
 his own body

00:36:52.320 --> 00:36:53.200
 on the cross

00:36:53.200 --> 00:36:54.360
 as a sacrifice

00:36:54.360 --> 00:36:55.019
 for sins

00:36:55.019 --> 00:36:56.240
 once and for all

00:36:56.239 --> 00:36:57.619
 so that we

00:36:57.619 --> 00:36:58.539
 never have to

00:36:58.539 --> 00:36:59.139
 repeat that

00:36:59.139 --> 00:36:59.659
 sacrifice

00:36:59.659 --> 00:37:00.259
 again

00:37:00.259 --> 00:37:02.279
 that's why

00:37:02.279 --> 00:37:02.779
 we don't

00:37:02.779 --> 00:37:03.259
 call

00:37:03.259 --> 00:37:04.599
 communion

00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:06.119
 a mass

00:37:06.119 --> 00:37:07.899
 or a sacrifice

00:37:07.899 --> 00:37:08.919
 it's not

00:37:08.919 --> 00:37:09.639
 a sacrifice

00:37:09.639 --> 00:37:11.279
 the sacrifice

00:37:11.279 --> 00:37:12.279
 has been

00:37:12.279 --> 00:37:12.919
 finished

00:37:12.919 --> 00:37:13.699
 it's been

00:37:13.699 --> 00:37:14.199
 offered

00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:15.079
 once and

00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:15.719
 for all

00:37:15.719 --> 00:37:16.719
 so we now

00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:17.639
 commune with him

00:37:17.639 --> 00:37:18.339
 in his fellowship

00:37:18.339 --> 00:37:18.699
 meal

00:37:18.699 --> 00:37:19.379
 we eat with

00:37:19.379 --> 00:37:19.699
 God

00:37:19.699 --> 00:37:20.219
 because

00:37:20.219 --> 00:37:21.379
 the sacrifice

00:37:21.379 --> 00:37:22.359
 has already

00:37:22.359 --> 00:37:23.439
 been made

00:37:23.440 --> 00:37:24.900
 and we

00:37:24.900 --> 00:37:25.500
 follow this

00:37:25.500 --> 00:37:25.820
 order

00:37:25.820 --> 00:37:26.139
 remember

00:37:26.139 --> 00:37:26.639
 the order

00:37:26.639 --> 00:37:26.900
 of the

00:37:26.900 --> 00:37:27.480
 sin offering

00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:27.980
 and then

00:37:27.980 --> 00:37:28.420
 the burnt

00:37:28.420 --> 00:37:28.820
 offering

00:37:28.820 --> 00:37:29.800
 and then

00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:30.519
 the fellowship

00:37:30.519 --> 00:37:30.980
 offering

00:37:30.980 --> 00:37:31.900
 Jesus offers

00:37:31.900 --> 00:37:32.300
 our sin

00:37:32.300 --> 00:37:32.659
 offering

00:37:32.659 --> 00:37:33.340
 and then

00:37:33.340 --> 00:37:33.760
 we offer

00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:34.500
 up ourselves

00:37:34.500 --> 00:37:35.800
 as the burnt

00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:36.240
 offering

00:37:36.240 --> 00:37:37.440
 of worship

00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:38.760
 and that's

00:37:38.760 --> 00:37:39.480
 what the

00:37:39.480 --> 00:37:39.940
 following verses

00:37:39.940 --> 00:37:40.420
 talk about

00:37:40.420 --> 00:37:40.619
 in the

00:37:40.619 --> 00:37:41.220
 consecration

00:37:41.220 --> 00:37:41.940
 of the

00:37:41.940 --> 00:37:42.440
 Israelites

00:37:42.440 --> 00:37:44.760
 in verses

00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:45.720
 38 to 46

00:37:45.720 --> 00:37:46.820
 after the

00:37:46.820 --> 00:37:47.320
 consecration

00:37:47.320 --> 00:37:47.539
 of the

00:37:47.539 --> 00:37:47.780
 priests

00:37:47.780 --> 00:37:48.380
 it gives us

00:37:48.380 --> 00:37:49.500
 some instructions

00:37:49.500 --> 00:37:50.300
 about the

00:37:50.300 --> 00:37:51.619
 regular sacrifices

00:37:51.619 --> 00:37:52.199
 that are to be

00:37:52.199 --> 00:37:52.960
 made after

00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:53.659
 the consecration

00:37:53.659 --> 00:37:54.139
 period is

00:37:54.139 --> 00:37:54.579
 over

00:37:54.579 --> 00:37:55.920
 and this

00:37:55.920 --> 00:37:56.279
 includes

00:37:56.279 --> 00:37:57.039
 two lambs

00:37:57.039 --> 00:37:57.579
 a year old

00:37:57.579 --> 00:37:58.359
 day by day

00:37:58.359 --> 00:37:58.980
 regularly

00:37:58.980 --> 00:37:59.500
 one in the

00:37:59.500 --> 00:37:59.779
 morning

00:37:59.779 --> 00:38:00.480
 one at

00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:00.920
 twilight

00:38:00.920 --> 00:38:01.420
 that are to

00:38:01.420 --> 00:38:02.099
 be sacrificed

00:38:02.099 --> 00:38:04.000
 and remember

00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:04.400
 that the

00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:05.099
 burnt offering

00:38:05.099 --> 00:38:06.500
 is the one

00:38:06.500 --> 00:38:07.359
 where the

00:38:07.359 --> 00:38:08.079
 whole thing

00:38:08.079 --> 00:38:08.599
 is burned

00:38:08.599 --> 00:38:09.500
 up entirely

00:38:09.500 --> 00:38:10.239
 into smoke

00:38:10.239 --> 00:38:11.559
 and I

00:38:11.559 --> 00:38:12.059
 mentioned to

00:38:12.059 --> 00:38:12.539
 you before

00:38:12.539 --> 00:38:13.199
 that the

00:38:13.199 --> 00:38:13.400
 Bible

00:38:13.400 --> 00:38:13.980
 theologically

00:38:13.980 --> 00:38:14.440
 connects

00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:15.259
 the bronze

00:38:15.259 --> 00:38:16.259
 altar

00:38:16.259 --> 00:38:16.960
 in the

00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:17.299
 courtyard

00:38:17.299 --> 00:38:18.039
 where the

00:38:18.039 --> 00:38:18.480
 sacrifices

00:38:18.480 --> 00:38:18.960
 are burnt

00:38:18.960 --> 00:38:20.519
 is connected

00:38:20.519 --> 00:38:21.099
 to the

00:38:21.099 --> 00:38:21.440
 golden

00:38:21.440 --> 00:38:22.139
 incense

00:38:22.139 --> 00:38:22.720
 the altar

00:38:22.720 --> 00:38:23.300
 of incense

00:38:23.300 --> 00:38:24.019
 inside the

00:38:24.019 --> 00:38:24.639
 holy place

00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:25.599
 they both

00:38:25.599 --> 00:38:26.179
 are square

00:38:26.179 --> 00:38:26.599
 they both

00:38:26.599 --> 00:38:27.300
 have horns

00:38:27.300 --> 00:38:27.619
 on its

00:38:27.619 --> 00:38:27.960
 corners

00:38:27.960 --> 00:38:28.639
 and they

00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:29.320
 both have

00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:30.280
 things burning

00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:30.659
 on it

00:38:30.659 --> 00:38:31.240
 at the

00:38:31.240 --> 00:38:31.980
 same time

00:38:31.980 --> 00:38:32.579
 at the

00:38:32.579 --> 00:38:32.860
 bronze

00:38:32.860 --> 00:38:33.240
 altar

00:38:33.240 --> 00:38:33.840
 twilight

00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:34.740
 and in

00:38:34.740 --> 00:38:35.159
 the morning

00:38:35.159 --> 00:38:36.059
 the sacrifice

00:38:36.059 --> 00:38:36.659
 burnt offering

00:38:36.659 --> 00:38:37.119
 is offered

00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:38.200
 and literally

00:38:38.200 --> 00:38:39.019
 to burn

00:38:39.019 --> 00:38:39.840
 that's the

00:38:39.840 --> 00:38:40.420
 word burn

00:38:40.420 --> 00:38:40.780
 in Hebrew

00:38:40.780 --> 00:38:41.159
 is to

00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:41.700
 turn into

00:38:41.700 --> 00:38:42.159
 smoke

00:38:42.159 --> 00:38:43.159
 you turn

00:38:43.159 --> 00:38:43.639
 the offering

00:38:43.639 --> 00:38:44.179
 into smoke

00:38:44.179 --> 00:38:44.500
 and that

00:38:44.500 --> 00:38:44.820
 smoke

00:38:44.820 --> 00:38:45.320
 ascends

00:38:45.320 --> 00:38:45.679
 and that

00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:46.099
 smoke

00:38:46.099 --> 00:38:46.619
 ascending

00:38:46.619 --> 00:38:47.019
 to God

00:38:47.019 --> 00:38:47.260
 as a

00:38:47.260 --> 00:38:47.519
 pleasing

00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:47.940
 aroma

00:38:47.940 --> 00:38:49.079
 is represented

00:38:49.079 --> 00:38:49.780
 by the

00:38:49.780 --> 00:38:50.360
 incense

00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:51.240
 right before

00:38:51.239 --> 00:38:51.639
 the most

00:38:51.639 --> 00:38:52.219
 holy place

00:38:52.219 --> 00:38:52.659
 in the

00:38:52.659 --> 00:38:52.979
 golden

00:38:52.979 --> 00:38:53.799
 altar

00:38:53.799 --> 00:38:55.299
 and so

00:38:55.299 --> 00:38:55.759
 those two

00:38:55.759 --> 00:38:56.199
 things

00:38:56.199 --> 00:38:56.879
 are connected

00:38:56.879 --> 00:38:57.459
 and so

00:38:57.459 --> 00:38:57.879
 this is

00:38:57.879 --> 00:38:58.179
 God

00:38:58.179 --> 00:38:59.339
 the Israelites

00:38:59.339 --> 00:38:59.919
 as they

00:38:59.919 --> 00:39:00.519
 consecrate

00:39:00.519 --> 00:39:00.819
 themselves

00:39:00.819 --> 00:39:01.359
 to God

00:39:01.359 --> 00:39:01.979
 offer

00:39:01.979 --> 00:39:02.339
 themselves

00:39:02.339 --> 00:39:02.919
 up to

00:39:02.919 --> 00:39:03.259
 them

00:39:03.259 --> 00:39:04.039
 as

00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:05.199
 that

00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:06.039
 becomes

00:39:06.039 --> 00:39:06.619
 a pleasing

00:39:06.619 --> 00:39:07.039
 aroma

00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:07.639
 to God

00:39:07.639 --> 00:39:08.459
 and worship

00:39:08.459 --> 00:39:08.919
 to him

00:39:08.919 --> 00:39:10.919
 think again

00:39:10.919 --> 00:39:11.539
 of what an

00:39:11.539 --> 00:39:12.159
 extravagant

00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:12.479
 offering

00:39:12.479 --> 00:39:12.839
 the burnt

00:39:12.839 --> 00:39:13.219
 offering

00:39:13.219 --> 00:39:13.579
 is

00:39:13.579 --> 00:39:15.199
 some of

00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:15.579
 you guys

00:39:15.579 --> 00:39:16.099
 are meat

00:39:16.099 --> 00:39:16.419
 lovers

00:39:16.420 --> 00:39:18.400
 not

00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:19.000
 once

00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:20.220
 twice

00:39:20.220 --> 00:39:20.680
 a day

00:39:20.680 --> 00:39:22.400
 the whole

00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:22.740
 lamb

00:39:22.740 --> 00:39:24.500
 is

00:39:24.500 --> 00:39:25.099
 gone

00:39:25.099 --> 00:39:26.019
 it's

00:39:26.019 --> 00:39:26.300
 burnt

00:39:26.300 --> 00:39:26.680
 up

00:39:26.680 --> 00:39:29.440
 the leg

00:39:29.440 --> 00:39:29.880
 of lamb

00:39:29.880 --> 00:39:30.220
 what's your

00:39:30.220 --> 00:39:30.559
 favorite

00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:30.940
 meat

00:39:30.940 --> 00:39:32.000
 the lamb

00:39:32.000 --> 00:39:32.639
 shank

00:39:32.639 --> 00:39:34.079
 the lamb

00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:35.119
 loin

00:39:35.119 --> 00:39:35.559
 chops

00:39:35.559 --> 00:39:37.039
 all of

00:39:37.039 --> 00:39:37.460
 it's

00:39:37.460 --> 00:39:38.220
 gone

00:39:38.220 --> 00:39:39.019
 to the

00:39:39.019 --> 00:39:39.380
 flames

00:39:39.380 --> 00:39:41.460
 I'm sure

00:39:41.460 --> 00:39:41.900
 I'm not

00:39:41.900 --> 00:39:42.280
 alone

00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:43.340
 in

00:39:43.340 --> 00:39:43.980
 having

00:39:43.980 --> 00:39:44.280
 the

00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:44.820
 experience

00:39:44.820 --> 00:39:45.800
 of

00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:46.260
 the

00:39:46.260 --> 00:39:46.740
 pain

00:39:46.740 --> 00:39:47.920
 of

00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:48.320
 leaving

00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:48.640
 your

00:39:48.640 --> 00:39:49.640
 meat

00:39:49.640 --> 00:39:50.200
 too long

00:39:50.200 --> 00:39:50.440
 in the

00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:50.720
 oven

00:39:50.720 --> 00:39:51.460
 so it's

00:39:51.460 --> 00:39:51.740
 burnt

00:39:51.740 --> 00:39:52.039
 to a

00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:52.420
 crisp

00:39:52.420 --> 00:39:53.780
 and it's

00:39:53.780 --> 00:39:54.240
 unfit

00:39:54.240 --> 00:39:54.660
 for human

00:39:54.660 --> 00:39:55.160
 consumption

00:39:55.160 --> 00:39:56.940
 you open

00:39:56.940 --> 00:39:57.160
 that

00:39:57.160 --> 00:39:57.559
 the smoke

00:39:57.559 --> 00:39:58.059
 comes out

00:39:58.059 --> 00:39:58.260
 and you

00:39:58.260 --> 00:39:58.420
 go

00:39:58.420 --> 00:39:59.160
 what a

00:39:59.160 --> 00:39:59.660
 waste

00:39:59.660 --> 00:40:01.440
 maybe

00:40:01.440 --> 00:40:01.880
 you still

00:40:01.880 --> 00:40:02.200
 eat it

00:40:02.200 --> 00:40:02.480
 because you

00:40:02.480 --> 00:40:02.800
 can't

00:40:02.800 --> 00:40:03.099
 waste

00:40:03.099 --> 00:40:03.460
 it

00:40:03.460 --> 00:40:06.380
 what a

00:40:06.380 --> 00:40:06.800
 waste

00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:07.780
 all of

00:40:07.780 --> 00:40:08.380
 that tasty

00:40:08.380 --> 00:40:08.840
 choice

00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:09.099
 meat

00:40:09.099 --> 00:40:09.400
 which should

00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:09.559
 have been

00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:09.940
 for my

00:40:09.940 --> 00:40:10.279
 mouth

00:40:10.279 --> 00:40:10.559
 and for

00:40:10.559 --> 00:40:10.759
 my

00:40:10.759 --> 00:40:11.039
 stomach

00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:11.440
 all

00:40:11.440 --> 00:40:11.679
 gone

00:40:11.679 --> 00:40:11.799
 up

00:40:11.799 --> 00:40:11.940
 in

00:40:11.940 --> 00:40:12.380
 flames

00:40:12.380 --> 00:40:14.519
 that's

00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:14.799
 the

00:40:14.799 --> 00:40:15.239
 point

00:40:15.239 --> 00:40:15.880
 of

00:40:15.880 --> 00:40:16.000
 the

00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:16.179
 burnt

00:40:16.179 --> 00:40:16.519
 offering

00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:19.279
 it's

00:40:19.279 --> 00:40:19.940
 lavish

00:40:19.940 --> 00:40:21.759
 it's

00:40:21.759 --> 00:40:22.819
 extravagant

00:40:22.819 --> 00:40:24.139
 it

00:40:24.139 --> 00:40:24.579
 spares

00:40:24.579 --> 00:40:24.880
 no

00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:25.599
 expense

00:40:25.599 --> 00:40:26.139
 because

00:40:26.139 --> 00:40:26.579
 God

00:40:26.579 --> 00:40:26.779
 is

00:40:26.779 --> 00:40:27.239
 worthy

00:40:27.239 --> 00:40:27.480
 of

00:40:27.480 --> 00:40:27.839
 that

00:40:27.839 --> 00:40:30.960
 worship

00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:31.519
 is not

00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:32.079
 a context

00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:32.400
 to be

00:40:32.400 --> 00:40:32.779
 frugal

00:40:32.779 --> 00:40:33.619
 or

00:40:33.619 --> 00:40:34.339
 stingy

00:40:34.339 --> 00:40:35.299
 God's

00:40:35.299 --> 00:40:35.559
 people

00:40:35.559 --> 00:40:35.940
 are not

00:40:35.940 --> 00:40:36.139
 to

00:40:36.139 --> 00:40:36.639
 reserve

00:40:36.639 --> 00:40:36.980
 any

00:40:36.980 --> 00:40:37.440
 part

00:40:37.440 --> 00:40:37.679
 of

00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:37.860
 their

00:40:37.860 --> 00:40:38.420
 sacrifice

00:40:38.420 --> 00:40:38.599
 for

00:40:38.599 --> 00:40:38.799
 burnt

00:40:38.799 --> 00:40:39.119
 offering

00:40:39.119 --> 00:40:39.519
 or

00:40:39.519 --> 00:40:39.759
 any

00:40:39.759 --> 00:40:40.059
 part

00:40:40.059 --> 00:40:40.139
 of

00:40:40.139 --> 00:40:40.259
 their

00:40:40.259 --> 00:40:40.559
 own

00:40:40.559 --> 00:40:40.980
 lives

00:40:40.980 --> 00:40:41.299
 for

00:40:41.299 --> 00:40:41.980
 themselves

00:40:41.980 --> 00:40:42.579
 they

00:40:42.579 --> 00:40:42.719
 are

00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:42.819
 to

00:40:42.819 --> 00:40:42.960
 be

00:40:42.960 --> 00:40:43.460
 wholly

00:40:43.460 --> 00:40:43.799
 given

00:40:43.799 --> 00:40:44.000
 to

00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:44.299
 him

00:40:44.299 --> 00:40:44.960
 and

00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:45.400
 wholly

00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:45.839
 devoted

00:40:45.839 --> 00:40:46.059
 to

00:40:46.059 --> 00:40:46.440
 his

00:40:46.440 --> 00:40:47.219
 service

00:40:47.219 --> 00:40:48.199
 they are

00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:48.659
 not to

00:40:48.659 --> 00:40:48.860
 love

00:40:48.860 --> 00:40:49.179
 God

00:40:49.179 --> 00:40:49.480
 with

00:40:49.480 --> 00:40:50.380
 half

00:40:50.380 --> 00:40:50.559
 of

00:40:50.559 --> 00:40:50.719
 their

00:40:50.719 --> 00:40:51.019
 hearts

00:40:51.019 --> 00:40:51.259
 they are

00:40:51.259 --> 00:40:51.599
 to love

00:40:51.599 --> 00:40:51.819
 him

00:40:51.819 --> 00:40:52.019
 with

 their

00:40:56.960 --> 00:40:57.759
 and

00:40:57.759 --> 00:40:58.099
 that's

00:40:58.099 --> 00:40:58.239
 how

00:40:58.239 --> 00:40:58.460
 we

00:40:58.460 --> 00:40:58.679
 ought

 I

 appeal

00:41:04.099 --> 00:41:04.219
 you

00:41:04.219 --> 00:41:04.519
 therefore

00:41:06.319 --> 00:41:06.500
 of

 be

00:41:19.739 --> 00:41:20.239
 transformed

00:41:20.239 --> 00:41:20.619
 by

00:41:20.619 --> 00:41:20.759
 the

 renewal

00:41:21.119 --> 00:41:21.379
 of

00:41:21.379 --> 00:41:21.480
 your

 mind

00:41:21.839 --> 00:41:22.319
 that

00:41:25.419 --> 00:41:25.699
 good

 perfect

00:41:27.699 --> 00:41:29.559

00:45:47.340 --> 00:45:47.480
 love

00:45:47.480 --> 00:45:47.760

 We

00:45:48.840 --> 00:45:49.260
 love

00:45:49.260 --> 00:45:50.320
 those

00:45:50.320 --> 00:45:50.780
 words

00:45:50.780 --> 00:45:52.740
 it's

00:45:52.740 --> 00:45:52.900
 our

00:45:52.900 --> 00:45:53.280
 greatest

00:45:53.280 --> 00:45:53.820
 boast

00:45:53.820 --> 00:45:55.160
 our

00:45:55.160 --> 00:45:55.580

00:45:55.580 --> 00:45:56.120
 confidence

00:45:56.120 --> 00:45:56.600
 that we

00:45:56.600 --> 00:45:56.760
 are

00:45:56.760 --> 00:45:57.140

00:45:57.140 --> 00:45:57.640
 Christ

00:45:57.640 --> 00:46:03.760
 We

00:46:03.760 --> 00:46:03.940
 had

00:46:03.940 --> 00:46:04.160
 no

00:46:04.160 --> 00:46:04.400
 way

00:46:04.400 --> 00:46:04.580
 to

00:46:04.580 --> 00:46:04.820
 save

00:46:04.820 --> 00:46:05.220
 ourselves

00:46:05.220 --> 00:46:07.620
 we

00:46:07.620 --> 00:46:07.780
 had

00:46:07.780 --> 00:46:08.040
 no

00:46:08.040 --> 00:46:08.460
 way

00:46:08.460 --> 00:46:08.780
 to

00:46:08.780 --> 00:46:09.200
 approach

00:46:09.200 --> 00:46:09.600
 you

00:46:09.599 --> 00:46:10.819
 in your holiness.

00:46:12.319 --> 00:46:14.440
 So Father, thank you for sending your son, Jesus,

00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:16.259
 to make a way for us.

00:46:18.819 --> 00:46:21.460
 And Lord Jesus, thank you for offering yourself up

00:46:21.460 --> 00:46:23.019
 for us

00:46:23.019 --> 00:46:26.380
 as the sin offering.

00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:33.059
 Thank you for redeeming us from our slavery

00:46:33.059 --> 00:46:33.980
 to sin and death.

00:46:36.920 --> 00:46:38.119
 Help us all,

00:46:38.119 --> 00:46:40.019
 every day,

00:46:40.480 --> 00:46:42.420
 every single moment of our lives

00:46:42.420 --> 00:46:43.619
 by faith and obedience

00:46:43.619 --> 00:46:45.819
 to consecrate ourselves to you.

00:46:47.279 --> 00:46:51.219
 That we might be an acceptable living sacrifice,

00:46:53.079 --> 00:46:54.259
 pleasing to you, Lord.

00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:00.579
 We pray all this in Jesus' name.

00:47:01.259 --> 00:47:01.480
 Amen.
