October 22 / Exodus 29

Exodus 29

Dear RTB’ers,

I counted the word “offering” sixteen times in today’s reading. What kinds of offerings? Sin offerings, burnt offerings, food offerings, wave offerings, peace offerings, drink offerings, grain offerings. If you can keep track of all those, you are a Biblical scholar!

I could not find a way to shorten the ending of today’s chapter, so I offer it mostly in full: …at the entrance of the tent of meeting … I will meet with you, to speak to you there. I will dwell among the people of Israel and will be their God. 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. I am the LORD their God. (vv. 42b-46, slightly edited) He is the LORD, our God!!

Blessings!
