Today at <a href="https://www.calvarycommunity.ca">Calvary Community Church
</a>, Pastor Barry Regier spoke on Freedom in the Spirit - self-control .

Galatians 5:13-26

Christian Freedom

14 (Lev 19:18; Mt 7:12; 19:18-19) For the entire law is fulfilled
in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
(Lev 19:18.)
15 But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that
you are not consumed by one another.

[13] For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty
for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
[14] For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love
thy neighbour as thyself.
[15] But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not
consumed one of another.

Spiritual Fruit and Fleshly Works

16 (Eph 2:3; Ro 8:4-5) I say then, walk in the Spirit,
and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
17 (Ro 8:5-8; 8:13) For the flesh lusts against the Spirit,
and the Spirit against the flesh. These are in opposition
to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.
18 (Ro 8:14) But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 (Mt 15:18-19; 1Co 3:3) Now the works of the flesh are revealed,
which are these: adultery, sexual immorality, impurity, lewdness,
20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousy,
rage, selfishness, dissensions, heresies,
21 (Ro 13:13; 1Co 6:9-10) envy, murders, drunkenness, carousing,
and the like. I warn you, as I previously warned you,
that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 (Eph 5:9; Ro 7:4) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
patience, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 (Ac 24:25; 1Ti 1:9) meekness, and self-control; against
such there is no law.
24 (Ro 6:6; Gal 6:14) Those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh
with its passions and lusts.
25 (Gal 5:16) If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be conceited, provoking one another and envying one another.

[16] This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust
of the flesh.
[17] For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the
flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the
things that ye would.
[18] But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
[19] Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery,
fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
[20] Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife,
seditions, heresies,
[21] Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which
I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do
such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
[22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith,
[23] Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
[24] And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections
and lusts.
[25] If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
[26] Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying
one another.

Self-control ...

Proverbs 16:32

32 (Pr 14:29; 19:11) He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

32 He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty;
And he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

Proverbs 25:28

28 (Pr 16:32) He who has no rule over his own spirit
is like a city that is broken down and without walls.

[28] He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken
down, and without walls.

What is it?

Ephesians 1:11

11 (Eph 1:14; Heb 6:17) In Him also we have received an inheritance,
being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things
according to the counsel of His own will,

[11] In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated
according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of
his own will:

Phillipians 3:21

21 (Col 3:4) who will transform our body of humiliation,
so that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working
of His power even to subdue all things to Himself.

[21] Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his
glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue
all things unto himself.

Romans 1:18

The Guilt of Mankind

18 (Eph 5:6; Col 3:6) The wrath of God is revealed from heaven against
all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth
through unrighteousness.

[18] For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness
and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

Hebrews 4:15

15 (2Co 5:21; Jn 8:46) For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathise
with our weaknesses, but One who was in every sense tempted like we are,
yet without sin.

[15] For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling
of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet
without sin.

Matthew 4:1-11

Matthew 4:1-11

The Temptation of Jesus

Mk 1:12-13; Lk 4:1-13

1 (Lk 4:1-13; Heb 2:18) Then Jesus was led up into the wilderness
by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil.
2 (1Ki 19:8; Ex 34:28) And He had fasted for forty days and forty nights,
and then He was hungry.
3 (1Th 3:5; Mt 3:17) And the tempter came to Him and said,
"If You are the Son of God, command that these stones be turned into bread."
4 (Dt 8:3; Lk 4:4; Mt 4:7) But He answered, "It is written,
'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds
out of the mouth of God.'Ex 20:12; Dt 5:16."
5 (Mt 27:53; Ne 11:1) Then the devil took Him up into the holy city,
and set Him on the highest point of the temple,
6 (Ps 91:11-12) and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God,
throw Yourself down. For it is written,
'He shall give His angels charge concerning you,' Ps 91:11-12.
and
'In their hands they shall lift you up,
lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.' Ps 91:12."
7 (Dt 6:16; Mt 4:4) Jesus said to him, "It is also written,
'You shall not tempt the Lord your God.' Dt 6:16."
8 (Mt 16:26; 1Jn 2:15-16) Again, the devil took Him up on a very high
mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their grandeur,
9 and said to Him, "All these things I will give You if You will fall down
and worship me. "
10 (1Ch 21:1; Dt 10:20) Then Jesus said to him, "Get away from here, Satan!
For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God,
and Him only shall you serve.'Dt 6:13. "
11 (Mt 26:53; Lk 22:43; Heb 1:14) Then the devil left Him,
and immediately angels came and ministered to Him.
Matthew 4
[1] Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of
the devil.
[2] And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an
hungred.
[3] And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God,
command that these stones be made bread.
[4] But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
[5] Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a
pinnacle of the temple,
[6] And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it
is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their
hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a
stone.
[7] Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord
thy God.
[8] Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and
sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
[9] And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall
down and worship me.
[10] Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written,
Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
[11] Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered
unto him.

Matthew 21:12-13

12 (Lev 1:14; 5:7) Jesus went into the temple of God
and drove out all those who sold and bought in the temple
and overturned the tables of the moneychangers
and the seats of those who sold doves.
13 (Isa 56:7; Jer 7:11) He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall
be called a house of prayer,' (Isa 56:7.) but you have made it
'a den of thieves.' (Jer 7:11). "

[12] And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold
and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and
the seats of them that sold doves,
[13] And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house
of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Matthew 26:36-46,52-54,62-63

Matthew 26:36-46

The Prayer in Gethsemane
Mk 14:32-42; Lk 22:39-46

36 (Mt 26:39; 26:42) Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane
and said to the disciples, "Sit here while I go and pray close by."
37 (Mt 4:21; 17:1) He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee
and began to be sorrowful and troubled.
38 (Jn 12:27) Then He said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful,
even to death. Wait here, and keep watch with Me."
39 (Mt 20:22; 26:42) He went a little farther, and falling on His face,
He prayed, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me.
Nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will."
40 Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter,
"So, could you not keep watch with Me one hour?
41 (Mt 6:13; Mk 14:38) Watch and pray that you enter not into temptation.
The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
42 (Mt 26:39) He went away a second time and prayed, "O My Father,
if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done."
43 (Lk 9:32) Again, He came and found them sleeping,
for their eyes were heavy.
44 (2Co 12:8) So leaving them again, He went away and prayed the third time,
saying the same words.
45 (Jn 13:1; Lk 22:53) Then He came to His disciples and said to them,
"Sleep on now, and take your rest. Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man
is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Rise, let us be going. Look, he who betrays Me is at hand."

[34] Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before
the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
[35] Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny
thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
[36] Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith
unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
[37] And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be
sorrowful and very heavy.
[38] Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto
death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
[39] And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying,
O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not
as I will, but as thou wilt.
[40] And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith
unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
[41] Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is
willing, but the flesh is weak.
[42] He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if
this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
[43] And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
[44] And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time,
saying the same words.
[45] Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and
take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed
into the hands of sinners.
[46] Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

52 (Ge 9:6; Rev 13:10) Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back
in its place. For all those who take up the sword will perish by the sword.
53 (Mt 4:11; 2Ki 6:17; Da 7:10) Do you think that I cannot now pray to My
Father, and He will at once give Me more than twelve legions of angels?
54 (Mt 26:24) But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled,
that it must be so?"

[52] Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for
all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
[53] Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall
presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
[54] But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

62 Then the high priest stood up and said to Him, "Do You answer nothing?
What is it these men testify against You?"
63 (Lev 5:1; Mt 16:16) But Jesus remained silent.
The high priest said to Him, "I adjure You by the living God,
tell us whether You are the Christ, the Son of God."

[62] And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing?
what is it which these witness against thee?
[63] But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto
him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the
Christ, the Son of God.

Luke 23:34

24 (Ex 23:2) So Pilate gave the sentence as they demanded.

[24] And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

Why is it necessary?

Titus 2:11-14

11 (1Ti 2:4; Ac 11:23) For the grace of God that brings salvation
has appeared to all men,
12 (Lk 1:75; Ro 6:19) teaching us that, denying ungodliness
and worldly desires, we should live soberly, righteously,
and in godliness in this present world,
13 (2Ti 4:8; Titus 1:2) as we await the blessed hope and the appearing
of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,
14 (Eph 2:10; Heb 9:14) who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us
from all lawlessness and purify for Himself a special people,
zealous of good works.

[11] For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
[12] Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live
soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
[13] Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great
God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
[14] Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and
purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Titus 2:2-6

2 (1Ti 3:11; Titus 1:13) Older men should be sober, serious, temperate,
sound in faith, in love, in patience.
3 (1Ti 3:8; 3:11) Likewise, older women should be reverent in behaviour,
and not be false accusers, not be enslaved to much wine, but teachers
of good things,
4 (1Ti 5:14) that they may teach the young women to love their husbands,
to love their children,
5 (1Ti 6:1; Ge 3:16) and to be self-controlled, pure, homemakers, good,
obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be dishonoured.
6 (1Ti 5:1) Likewise, exhort young men to be self-controlled,

2 (1Ti 3:11; Titus 1:13) Older men should be sober, serious, temperate,
sound in faith, in love, in patience.
3 (1Ti 3:8; 3:11) Likewise, older women should be reverent in behaviour,
and not be false accusers, not be enslaved to much wine, but teachers
of good things,
4 (1Ti 5:14) that they may teach the young women to love their husbands,
to love their children,
5 (1Ti 6:1; Ge 3:16) and to be self-controlled, pure, homemakers, good,
obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be dishonoured.
6 (1Ti 5:1) Likewise, exhort young men to be self-controlled,

1 Peter 4:7

7 (1Pe 1:13; Lk 21:36) The end of all things is near.
Therefore be solemn and sober so you can pray.

[7] But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch
unto prayer.

Why is it so hard?

James 1:14-15

14 But each man is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed.
15 (Job 15:35; Ps 7:14) Then, when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin;
and when sin is finished, it brings forth death.

[14] But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and
enticed.
[15] Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it
is finished, bringeth forth death.

How can we cultivate it?

Hebrews 12:2

2 (Heb 1:3; Lk 24:26) Let us look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our
faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising
the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

[2] Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy
that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set
down at the right hand of the throne of God.

James 1:19-20

Hearing and Doing the Word

19 (Pr 10:19; 14:29) Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift
to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger,
20 for the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God.

[19] Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to
speak, slow to wrath:
[20] For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

Romans 8:5-7

5 (1Co 2:14; Gal 5:19-25) For those who live according to the flesh set
their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according
to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6 (Ro 6:21; 8:13) To be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually
minded is life and peace,
7 (Jas 4:4; 1Co 2:14) for the carnal mind is hostile toward God,
for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can it be,

[5] For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but
they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
[6] For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life
and peace.
[7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to
the law of God, neither indeed can be.

Galatians 5:24-25

24 (Ro 6:6; Gal 6:14) Those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh
with its passions and lusts.
25 (Gal 5:16) If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

[24] And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections
and lusts.
[25] If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

1) Exodus 30, Exodus 31, Exodus 32

EXODUS 30

The Altar of Incense

Ex 37:25-28

1 (Ex 37:25-28; Rev 8:3) Also, you must make an altar for burning incense. 
You must make it of acacia wood. 
2 (Ex 27:2) It must be a cubit in length, and its width a cubit. 
It will be square. Its height will be two cubits;
(About 1 1/2 feet long and wide and 3 feet high, 
or 45 centimeters long and wide and 90 centimeters high.)
the horns shall be of one piece with it. 
 3You must overlay it with pure gold, its top, its sides all around, 
and its horns; and you must make a molding of gold all around it. 
4 (Ex 25:27) You must make two golden rings for it under its molding. 
You must make them on its two sides, on opposite sides of it, 
and they will be holders for the poles with which to carry it. 
5 Then you must make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold. 
6 (Ex 25:21-22) You must put it before the veil that is by the ark 
of the testimony, in front of the mercy seat that is over the testimony,
where I will meet with you.
7 (1Sa 2:28; Ex 27:20-21) Aaron must burn sweet incense on it. 
Every morning, when he trims the lamps, he must burn incense.
8 When Aaron lights the lamps at sundown, he must burn incense on it. 
It is to be a perpetual incense before the Lord throughout your generations. 
9 (Lev 10:1)You must offer no strange incense on it, nor burnt sacrifice, 
nor grain offering, and you must not pour out a drink offering on it.
10 (Lev 16:18; 23:27) Aaron must make atonement on its horns once a year 
with the blood of the sin offering of atonement. Once a year he must make
atonement on it throughout your generations. It is most holy to the Lord.

[1] And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt
thou make it.
[2] A cubit shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof;
foursquare shall it be: and two cubits shall be the height thereof: the
horns thereof shall be of the same.
[3] And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, the top thereof, and the sides
thereof round about, and the horns thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a
crown of gold round about.
[4] And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under the crown of it, by the
two corners thereof, upon the two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they
shall be for places for the staves to bear it withal.
[5] And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with
gold.
[6] And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the
testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will
meet with thee.
[7] And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he
dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.
[8] And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon
it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.
[9] Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat
offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.
[10] And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year
with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he
make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the
LORD.

The Atonement Money
 
11 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 
12 (Nu 31:50; Ex 38:25-26) When you take the census of the children of
 Israel according to their number, then each man is to pay a ransom for 
his life to the Lord when you count them, so that there be no plague 
among them when you number them. 
13 (Lev 27:25; Nu 3:47) This is what everyone who is counted must give:
 half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary
(About 1/5 ounce, or 5.8 grams; and in v. 15. (a shekel is twenty gerahs).)
The half shekel will be the offering to the Lord.
14 Everyone who is counted, from twenty years old and above, 
must give an offering to the Lord. 
15 (Pr 22:2; Eph 6:9) The rich must not give more and the poor must not 
give less than half a shekel when they give the offering to the Lord,
 to make atonement for your lives. 
16 (Ex 38:25-31; Nu 16:40) You must take the atonement money of the 
children of Israel and give it for the service of the tent of meeting, 
so that it may be a memorial to the children of Israel before the Lord, 
to make atonement for your lives.

[11] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[12] When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number,
then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when
thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest
them.
[13] This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are
numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is
twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD.
[14] Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years
old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.
[15] The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than
half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an
atonement for your souls.
[16] And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and
shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that
it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an
atonement for your souls.

The Bronze Basin

17 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 
18 (Ex 38:8; 40:7) You must also make a basin of bronze, 
with its base also of bronze, for washing, 
and you must put it between the tent of meeting and the altar,
 and you must put water in it.
 19 (Isa 52:11; Ex 40:31-32) For Aaron and his sons must wash 
their hands and their feet from it. 
20 When they go into the tent of meeting, or when they come near
 the altar to minister by burning incense as an offering made
 by fire to the Lord, they must wash with water so that they will not die.
21 (Ex 28:43) So they must wash their hands and their feet, 
so that they will not die. And it will be a perpetual statute for them,
 even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.

[17] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[18] Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to
wash withal: and thou shalt put it between the tabernacle of the
congregation and the altar, and thou shalt put water therein.
[19] For Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat:
[20] When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash
with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to
minister, to burn offering made by fire unto the LORD:
[21] So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and
it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed
throughout their generations.

The Anointing Oil

22 Moreover the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 
23 (SS 4:14; Eze 27:19) Take for yourself choice spices: five hundred shekels
(About 12 1/2 pounds, or 5.8 kilograms; and in v. 24. )
of pure myrrh, half as much sweet-smelling cinnamon 
(two hundred and fifty shekels About 6 1/4 pounds, or 2.9 kilograms.),
 two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet-smelling cane, 
24 (Ex 29:40; Ps 45:8) five hundred shekels of cassia,
 according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin
(About 75 pounds, or 34 kilograms.) of olive oil. 
25 (Ex 37:29; Nu 35:25; Ps 89:20) And you must make
 with it a holy anointing oil, a perfumed compound,
 the work of a perfumer. It will be a holy anointing oil. 
26 (Nu 7:1) And you must anoint the tent of meeting with it,
 along with the ark of the testimony, 
27 and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils,
 and the altar of incense, 
28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, 
and the basin and its stand. 
29 (Ex 29:37) You must consecrate them, so that they may be most holy. 
Whatever touches them must be holy.
30 (Lev 8:12; 8:30) You must anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate them,
so that they may minister as priests to Me. 
31 You must speak to the children of Israel, saying, 
"This will be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations. 
32 (Ex 30:25) It must not be poured out on anyone's body, 
nor shall you make any other like it in composition. 
It is holy, and it will be holy to you. 
33 (Ex 30:38; Ge 17:14) Whoever makes anything like it
 or whoever puts any of it on a layman 
will be cut off from his people."

[22] Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[23] Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred
shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty
shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,
[24] And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary,
and of oil olive an hin:
[25] And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound
after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil.
[26] And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and
the ark of the testimony,
[27] And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels,
and the altar of incense,
[28] And the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and
his foot.
[29] And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever
toucheth them shall be holy.
[30] And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that
they may minister unto me in the priest's office.
[31] And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, This shall be
an holy anointing oil unto me throughout your generations.
[32] Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any
other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy
unto you.
[33] Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon
a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.

The Incense

34 (Ex 25:6; 37:29) Then the Lord said to Moses: 
Take for yourself sweet spices, 
stacte and onycha and galbanum, 
sweet spices with pure frankincense of equal amounts.
35 (Ex 30:25; Lev 2:13) You shall make of these an incense, 
a compound expertly blended, mingled with salt, pure and holy.
36 (Ex 25:22) You must beat some of it very fine and put
 part of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting 
where I will meet with you. It will be most holy to you. 
37 As for the perfume which you will make, you may not 
make it for yourselves using the same recipe. 
It must be holy for the Lord to you. 
38 (Ex 30:33) Whoever makes anything like it in order to use it 
as perfume must be cut off from his people.

[34] And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and
onycha, and galbanum; these sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each
shall there be a like weight:
[35] And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the
apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:
[36] And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the
testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with
thee: it shall be unto you most holy.
[37] And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to
yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy
for the LORD.
[38] Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be
cut off from his people. 

EXODUS 31

The Tabernacle Artisans

Ex 35:30-35

1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 
2 (Ex 36:1; 35:30) See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri,
 the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. 
3 (1Ki 7:14; Ex 35:31) I have filled him with the Spirit of God in wisdom,
 in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of craftsmanship 
4 to devise artistic works for work with gold, with silver, and with bronze, 
5 and in the cutting of stones for settings, and in carving of wood, 
to work in all manner of craftsmanship. 
6 (Ex 28:3; 35:10) I, indeed,  I have given him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamak,
 of the tribe of Dan, and I have given skill to all who are 
specially skilled, that they may make everything that I have commanded you:
 7 (Ex 36:8-37:9)the tent of meeting, the ark of the testimony, 
and the mercy seat that is on it, and all the furniture of the tent, 
8 (Ex 37:10-28) the table and its utensils, and the pure lampstand 
with all its utensils, and the altar of incense, 
9 (Ex 38:1-8) the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils,
 and the basin and its stand, 
10 the woven garments, the holy garments for Aaron the priest 
and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests, 
11 (Ex 37:29) the anointing oil and sweet incense for the holy place.
 They must make them according to all that I have commanded you.

[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of
the tribe of Judah:
[3] And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in
understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
[4] To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
[5] And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work
in all manner of workmanship.
[6] And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of
the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put
wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee;
[7] The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and
the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,
[8] And the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his
furniture, and the altar of incense,
[9] And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver
and his foot,
[10] And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest,
and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,
[11] And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according
to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.

The Sabbath Law

12 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 
13 (Eze 20:12; 20:20) Speak also to the children of Israel, saying,
 "You must surely keep My Sabbaths, for it is a sign between Me
and you throughout your generations, that you may know that 
I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
14 "You shall keep the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. 
Everyone who defiles it will surely be put to death.
 For whoever does any work on it, that person will be cut 
off from among his people. 
15 (Ex 16:23; Lev 23:3) Six days may work be done,
 but on the seventh is the Sabbath of complete rest,
 holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath 
day will surely be put to death. 
16 Therefore the children of Israel must keep the Sabbath, 
to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, 
for a perpetual covenant. 
17 (Ge 1:31; Ex 31:13; Ge 2:2-3) It is a sign between Me 
and the children of Israel forever, for in six days 
the Lord made heaven and earth, 
but on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed."
18 (Ex 24:12; 32:15-16) When He had made an end of 
communing with him on Mount Sinai,
He gave Moses the two tablets of testimony,
 tablets of stone, written with the finger of God.

[12] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[13] Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths
ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your
generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.
[14] Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one
that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work
therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
[15] Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest,
holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall
surely be put to death.
[16] Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the
sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
[17] It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six
days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and
was refreshed.
[18] And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him
upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the
finger of God.
