Fulling Divine Mandate - Numbers 8

By -
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 

Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the  lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the  candlestick. Numbers 8:1-2

Numbers 8:3 And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps  thereof over against the candlestick, as the LORD  commanded Moses. 

Numbers 8:4 And this work of the candlestick  was of beaten gold, unto the shaft thereof, unto the flowers  thereof, was beaten work: according unto the pattern  which the LORD had shewed Moses, so he made the  candlestick.  

Numbers 8:5 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 

Numbers 8:6  Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and  cleanse them. 

Numbers 8:7 And thus shalt thou do unto them, to  cleanse them: Sprinkle water of purifying upon them, and  let them shave all their flesh, and let them wash their  clothes, and so make themselves clean. 

Numbers 8:8 Then let  them take a young bullock with his meat offering, even  fine flour mingled with oil, and another young bullock shalt  thou take for a sin offering. 

Numbers 8:9 And thou shalt bring the  Levites before the tabernacle of the congregation: and thou  shalt gather the whole assembly of the children of Israel  together: 

Numbers 8:10 And thou shalt bring the Levites before the  LORD: and the children of Israel shall put their hands upon  the Levites: 

Numbers 8:11 And Aaron shall offer the Levites before  the LORD for an offering of the children of Israel, that  they may execute the service of the LORD. 

Numbers 8:12 And the  Levites shall lay their hands upon the heads of the bullocks:  and thou shalt offer the one for a sin offering, and the  other for a burnt offering, unto the LORD, to make an  atonement for the Levites. 

Numbers 8:13 And thou shalt set the  Levites before Aaron, and before his sons, and offer them  for an offering unto the LORD. 

Numbers 8:14 Thus shalt thou  separate the Levites from among the children of Israel: and  the Levites shall be mine. 

Numbers 8:15 And after that shall the  Levites go in to do the service of the tabernacle of the  congregation: and thou shalt cleanse them, and offer them  for an offering. 

Numbers 8:16 For they are wholly given unto  me from among the children of Israel; instead of such as  open every womb, even instead of the firstborn of all the  children of Israel, have I taken them unto me. 

Numbers 8:17 For all  the firstborn of the children of Israel are mine, both man  and beast: on the day that I smote every firstborn in the land  of Egypt I sanctified them for myself. 

Numbers 8:18 And I have  taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of  Israel. 

Numbers 8:19 And I have given the Levites as a gift to  Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to  do the service of the children of Israel in the tabernacle of  the congregation, and to make an atonement for the children  of Israel: that there be no plague among the children of  Israel, when the children of Israel come nigh unto the sanctuary. 

Numbers 8:20 And Moses, and Aaron, and all the  congregation of the children of Israel, did to the Levites  according unto all that the LORD commanded Moses  concerning the Levites, so did the children of Israel unto  them.

Numbers 8:21 And the Levites were purified, and they  washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them as an  offering before the LORD; and Aaron made an atonement  for them to cleanse them. 

Numbers 8:22 And after that went the  Levites in to do their service in the tabernacle of the  congregation before Aaron, and before his sons: as the  LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so  did they unto them.   

Numbers 8:23 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 

Numbers 8:24  This is it that belongeth unto the Levites: from twenty  and five years old and upward they shall go in to wait upon  the service of the tabernacle of the congregation: 

Numbers 8:25  And from the age of fifty years they shall cease waiting  upon the service thereof, and shall serve no more: 

Numbers 8:26  But shall minister with their brethren in the tabernacle of the  congregation, to keep the charge, and shall do no service.  Thus shalt thou do unto the Levites touching their charge.
