tabernacle of the congregation and the altar I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons to minister to me in the priest's office and I will dwell among the children of Israel and will be their God and they shall know that I am the Lord their God that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt that I may dwell among them I am the Lord their God let us pray dear Lord please be a pastor let us get something from the message tonight in Jesus name I pray amen amen See there in Exodus chapter 29 and we are continuing our study through the book of Exodus and if you remember last week we hit on the priest's garments so more so we were dealing with Aaron and then it got into his sons also basically have a garment that's similar to that but he's they're not wearing the ephod and the breastplate and the mitre they have but they do have coats and and they do have the you know girdles and bonnets so I think I'd rather have the mitre than a bonnet I'm just kidding but obviously the bonnet is not what you would think of as far as like you know 1800s bonnet that women wore or whatever but but in this chapter we're getting into the sanctification or I guess the consecration more so where they the the priests are being hallowed or they're being consecrated for the priest's office and so this gets into basically the the these offerings if you will of consecration so first of all what does consecrate even mean okay but consecrate just means to hallow basically to declare sacred or to basically dedicate for religious purposes right so if you think about it like this pulpit is consecrated for the church right there's no other use for this pulpit besides for this church right the piano is the same way there's just certain vessels if you will this church building is consecrated for the church's use we're not going to rent out this building and just make money off of it doing other things okay this is going to be for church activities whether it's church services or fellowships or whatever it's sanctified for that use okay and so when you get to that word consecrate basically they're just being set apart or made holy now holy doesn't this you know like when holiness obviously we can be considered holy or or saying you know basically consecrated knowing that we're not perfect but the whole point there is that we're being set apart for a service if you will but let's look let's look first of all at what's going to be used for the offerings here to to consecrate the priests so in verse one here it says and this is the thing that thou shalt do unto them to hallow them to minister unto to me in the priest's office take one young bullock and two rams without blemish so we see there's three animals that are used here one young bullock and two rams without blemish notice that these are all males right a bullock you take off the last portion there you see bull okay a bull is a male uh cow if you will right i mean basically like a steer we would normally say like a steer but it's a bullock or a bull and then two rams is basically a sheep that's the male sheep right you have the ram and you have the u and the lamb is the young one right it's kind of like the calf is the young bullock or the young you know uh cow if you will so basically there's three animals here that are going to be sacrificed they're all males i think it's very interesting too that in this in this case we have obviously the priests are all males okay and that's what's being sanctified here now right now there's actually aaron and he has four sons but it's actually going to come down to two sons because uh his first two sons are going to end up dying because they offer strange fire that doesn't happen yet but uh but so we see that there's the young bullock so there's a bull and there's two rams okay in verse two here it says in unleavened bread and cakes unleavened tempered with oil and wafers unleavened anointed with oil a wheaten flour shalt thou make them so when you think about this there's actually three different unleavened things here right you had the bread the cakes and the wafers and then it says and now shall put them in into one basket and bring them in the basket with the bullock and the two rams so it's interesting that you kind of see three animals and then there's three types of unleavened bread and you can obviously see you know the number three and and obviously you can see the godhead there a little bit and i'm not going to stretch too far with this but the idea here is that three three different types of unleavened uh bread if you will in one basket you know three and one you kind of see these type of things and you'll see this throughout the sacrifices where there's a lot of symbolism when it comes to who god is and obviously what he's going to do but i don't think that this is an accident do you think it's just like well let's just get let's get a bullock and why not two rams you know like obviously there's a reason for all this and it's all going to picture something um but i think it's interesting and i've never like i said before i've done this study you kind of read this stuff and you're just like okay there's unleavened bread okay there's there's a there's a bullock there's rams okay but never really just kind of dissected it to a point of okay what exactly are they doing here you know the fact that okay there's three different types of unleavened uh bread here if you will and it's in one basket there's there's three animals here they're all males and we're going to be getting into uh what each sacrifice is going to be doing and each animal has kind of a specific you know sacrifice if you will um but let's look first of all that the priests are going to be washed with water okay so look at uh exit chapter 29 verse 4 it says an errand and his son thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation and shout wash them with water now what's interesting about this is that actually it's not until the next chapter that we see that there's actually this labor where there's like basically an area to wash okay there's a labor in the foot and basically it's an area to wash themselves off and it's right between the altar and it's at the door of the tabernacle if you will okay and so before they can go in they have to be clean okay so the whole point of this consecration is that the priests are representing the lord and they need to be as clean as possible they need to be sanctified and this this all these offerings are to basically cleanse the altar the tabernacle all the vessels and the priests themselves to do the office okay so that's what this is all about obviously it all represents of how jesus is clean and jesus is worthy and he's consecrated he's holy um but this is the physical representing the spiritual okay but keep reading there in verse in verse five thou shalt take the garments and put upon air in the coat in the robe of the ephod and the in the ephod and the breastplate and gird him with the curious girdle of the ephod now shall put the mitre upon his head and put the holy crown upon the mitre i thought that was interesting you know that what's that talking about well the mitre is the hat if you will but the the holy crown upon the mitre would be that plate you remember that gold plate that goes on the front that goes on the mitre that says holiness uh to the lord so that's called a holy crown okay so um and then it says then then shalt thou take the anointing oil and pour it upon his head and anoint him and thou shalt bring his sons and put coats upon them and that's what gird them with girdles erin and his sons and put the bonnets on them and the priest's office shall be theirs for perpetual statute and thou shalt consecrate erin and his sons so you see here that obviously erin has a little more to do with his outfit right his sons still have they have coats they have those embroidered coats they have the girdles and they have bonnets so they have hats on okay which i believe is a great way to show when we're talking about our head being covered we're not talking about hats you know because the priests are literally commanded to wear hats if you will um and so uh you know i don't think there's anything wrong with wearing a hat although i'll say this i i wear a hat when i'm outside when i'm inside that kind of doesn't have a purpose for me to wear a hat you know like the whole point of me wearing a hat is so the sun gets out of my eyes that just me personally some people just like wearing hats and you know i don't care um but anyway that being said uh sometimes there's traditions that are passed down that just really don't have biblical significance uh or actually kind of go against uh the biblical aspect there now the thing that's interesting here is that it says the anointing oil is going to be poured upon erin's head okay go to uh psalm 133 psalm 133 this is a very short psalm it's only three verses so i'm going to read the whole thing so bear with me so psalm 133 and verse one here and you know again this is why i believe it's it's so important that you know these stories and know what's going on here because these things that are detailed in here you may think is like this kind of boring but then later on when you're reading through the new testament you're reading through psalms you're reading through something else and you're just like oh i know what that's about right i know what that's referring to and you kind of just automatically know and you're not just kind of in the dark as far as what's being brought up okay but in verse one here it says behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity so amen to that obviously the unity of the bible though right we need to be of one accord according to the word god but it says in verse two here it is like the precious ointment upon the head that ran down upon the beard even aaron's beard that went down to the skirts of his garments as the dew of herman and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of zion for there the lord commanded the blessing even life forevermore so uh it's just interesting here that one it shows us aaron has a beard you're like why is that important i just think it's interesting to kind of picture who you're dealing with here and a lot of times people had beard david had a beard he talks about the spittle when he was like acting like a madman uh so that he doesn't die you know basically uh that his spittle went on his beard it talks about his men and how they shaved their beards halfway and they he says terry and jereco until your beards be grown and then you have aaron here it talks about how this ointment went on his head and went on it went down upon the beard even aaron that went down to the skirts of his garments now i used to say well his beard went down to the skirts of the garments but i think it's talking about the oil okay just to be honest okay i don't think he had a zz top beard necessarily um so i think it's talking about the oils on the head goes to the beard goes down to the skirts of the garments i think that's kind of the context there but either way he had a beard and uh we were talking about being a fundamentalist and uh you know that sermon about you know why we're a fundamentalist but don't go against the bible okay when it comes to uh where people will preach like oh you shouldn't have facial hair it should be clean cut it's like hey listen if your standard i don't think it's wrong to shave okay i don't think it's wrong to be clean cut let's let me put that out there but i'll say this there's more in the bible about having a beard than being clean cut actually show me where it's it's this great thing that your head's shaving besides when maybe you're you've committed sin or you need cleanse from something okay because they'll like shave their head if they have you know like they're cleansing themselves they you know obviously the nasrite valve but then they shave their heads you know to show they're done with that and all that but anyway um so i'm all about having a beard you don't have to have a beard the point that i'm getting crossed here is that men you have liberty to have a beard or not have a beard and the bible definitely doesn't teach against having a beard okay um actually it's talking about the gloryness the glory of basically this oil coming down on his head and into his beard and to the skirts of his garments and skirts of the garments doesn't mean he has he's wearing a skirt skirts of the garments just means like the edge of it okay so basically just went it went all the way down you know and just basically covered him so when he was anointed it wasn't just like where you take a little bit of oil and just kind of put it on the head a little bit no they poured the oil on right and it kind of shows you that they're pouring this oil to the point where it's going down his face going over his beard going down to the skirts of his garments and so he's getting drenched if you will in this uh not quite baptized but you know he's getting uh covered with this oil okay and obviously you can see how this would represent jesus because the bible says but unto the son he said thy throne oh god is forever and ever a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of thy kingdom and it says uh wherefore god even i god hath anointed thee with your oil of gladness above thy fellows so what's the oil represent i would say the spirit of god right because it talks about how he giveth him the spirit without measure and it says that the anointing which you have received of him abideth in you and you need not that any man teach you but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things and is truth and is no lie and even as it had taught you you shall abide in him and you have an unction from the holy one you know all things and getting into what it represents but if you understand this is that you're talking about the levitical priesthood here in the new testament what do we have the royal priesthood we have the priesthood of the believer in the new testament and uh but this does kind of show you you know what does this represent he's obviously the high priest so he's supposed to represent him that's anointed with the oil of gladness above his fellows right and uh you know representing jesus when he goes in there okay and obviously aaron's not perfect we haven't got to chapter 32 but aaron is definitely not without sin and the bible is very clear to show hey you know he has to do a sacrifice for himself these sacrifices have to be done for the priests to sanctify them uh and you know basically wash away the sins of the flesh if you will right the sanctifier sanctification uh and cleansing of the flesh there now go back to exodus chapter 29 next to chapter 29 so exit chapter 29 now is now it's going to start breaking down this offering that's going to consecrate them right we remember we had the young bullock the two rams and then we had all those there's three different types of unleavened bread if you will the bread the cakes and the wafers now in verse 10 here it says now shall cause a bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of the congregation aaron and his son shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock now this is something that's going to happen with all three of these animals and it talks about you know how they'll basically put their hands on the bullock and then uh in some cases they'll talk about them confessing their sins upon the bullock and the idea here is that basically you're laying your sins upon the animal right now obviously this doesn't cleanse their sins from their soul or anything like that but it does cleanse them physically as much as in the new testament now we just who if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all righteousness you know we have the sacrifice of the lamb both to you know sanctify us spiritually but also physically even in this life okay but they put their hands upon the bullock and thou shalt kill the bullock before the lord by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation so they're basically at the door of the tabernacle they killed it right there okay it's not on the entrance by the door okay you say what's the significance i'm not i don't know i'm just stating facts here so i just want you to kind of picture what what's going on here um now in verse 12 it says now shall take the blood of the bullock and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar so basically they're going to kill it they're going to take all the blood from this thing and they're going to put it on the horns of the altar if you remember on the altar the brazen altar that's out there there's a horn on each side of it now if you remember what's the point of that well specifically to tie down the sacrifice now this isn't a typical sacrifice that they're doing this is basically to sanctify the priests i mean this is like the startup if you will of getting the priests to even do their office and moses is the one doing this so the interesting thing about this is that moses isn't a priest but he's the one that's consecrating them he's the one sprinkling the blood putting the blood upon aaron and his sons and uh and basically starting this thing up okay so there is going to be a little bit of uh a difference or i guess uh uh uniqueness if you will to the priests being sanctified to when the priests come and do a sacrifice for other people okay now um keep reading there where were we at there so in verse uh verse 13 and thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the n-words and the call that is above the liver and the two kidneys and the fat that is that is upon them and burn them upon the altar okay so this is something you're gonna hear you know the the two kidneys and the call above the liver you know like here here is like just right through these passages so many times there's like the call above the liver it's like the fine twine linen the badger has died red you know like you hear it so many times you're like all right i know that there's a call above the liver you know you may not know what that is but you hear it so many times because with this this sacrifice is interesting because there's only that that's what's burned upon the altar okay verse 14 but the flesh of the bullock and his skin and his dung shalt thou burn with fire without the camp it is a sin offering okay so this one particularly is called a sin offering the other ones with the lamb i'm sorry with the ram is going to be called a burn offering this is called a sin offering now leviticus really breaks this down which i'm not going to get into but leviticus gets into the burn offerings the sin offerings the sin of ignorance you know the drink offering the meat offerings goes down the line and really spells that out okay you say why do we have all this because this has a meaning and i'll show you this one has a specific meaning that's brought up in the new testament go to hebrews chapter 13 because the inward parts of the animal is burned on the altar but but the basically the body of the animal he's taken without the camp and burned so that's very interesting what does it represent now this one's easy because the bible just straight up tells us okay i mean just straight up i mean there's no question what this represents but i want you to keep this in mind that when i show you this is that all these other sacrifices have representation that's going to represent jesus okay everything from the old testament is pointing to what jesus is going to do on the cross and everything obviously that's written in the epistles and everything after that is pointing back to what he did on the cross the death bell and resurrection that is that is the pivotal point of all of history and so this should show you that hey you may just read through that and if you didn't know hebrew chapter 13 be like okay whatever you know they took it without the camp not sure why but they did verse 10 so hebrew chapter 13 verse 10 it says we have an altar where of they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle so basically talking about the jews that are now you know we have an altar they have no right to okay it says in verse 11 there says for the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin are burned without the camp okay so that's what we're just reading but notice what it says here in verse 12 wherefore jesus also that he might sanctify the people with his own blood suffered without the gate let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp bearing his reproach so there's actually two takeaways that you can get from this one jesus paid for our sins and he was crucified without the camp there he buried his reproach without the camp why because where was he crucified they took him without jerusalem and to go to golgotha or to uh to calvary on the hill there and they crucified him without the camp without the gate so this sacrifice represents how jesus was going to die without the camp but also we need as jesus did to go without the camp and there's a lot of representation i mean that's a whole sermon for another day as far as basically not loving the world you know and not being of the world and basically coming out from among them and being without the camp and not being you know a part of it but we're in it to win people right and we're going to bear the reproach without the gate just this and knowing this is that mainly this is marvel not if the world hates you right i mean we're always going to be without the camp when it comes to the world just know that okay and if you're not without the camp in the world then you're not doing something right because the the world is going to hate you if you're living for christ because if they hated jesus they're going to hate you you're not better than him it's funny when people are just like well you know uh is that you know that when people will say stuff that's just so contrary to what the bible says it's like you know all these people hate you you think that's what you think that's what jesus wants it's like you obviously have never read the bible like they crucified him like don't you want everybody to like you yeah like so did they the false prophets right when all men shall speak well of you so again that's the sermon for another day but uh but go back to Exodus chapter 29 and verse 15 this is kind of a longer chapter so i'm going to try to press through it here um not that flow through it but at the same time like i want to hit everything uh and going down the line here so so that one's really cool that you can see the representation there as far as the inwards upon the altar and then you see the body going without the camp and each sacrifice and what you have to understand is that no single sacrifice is just going to tell everything about what jesus is going to do right because you're going to see sacrifices that are going to tell a certain aspect of what he's going to do right so this one particularly the bullock is going to show you that how he's going to die without the gate right but then some may say well it's only his body that suffered it's not a soul well let's let's look at the ram right one the inwards were burned everything was burned okay so even with that example the inwards were burned but you could probably look at that as far as like okay well when he was in the garden of gethsemane you know his soul was you know basically sorrowful even under death and obviously he was you know exceeding sorrowful to the point where he was he was uh sweating as it were great drops of blood right no one would you know question that he's in agony spiritually speaking right you can kind of see that inward amount but then without the gate he died you know his body died on the cross and all that but unless you think that you know that his soul didn't suffer after that notice what it says in verse 19 i'm sorry verse 15 so notice it says here thou shalt also take one ram so notice that we're just talking about one of them there's two of them but you can take one ram and aaron and his son shall put their hands upon the head of the ram and thou shalt slay the ram and thou shalt take his blood and sprinkle it upon roundabout upon the altar so it doesn't talk about it putting on the horns of the altar just as basically just sprinkling it around the altar it says thou shalt i'm sorry uh and it says in verse 17 and now shall cut the ram in pieces and wash the inwards inwards of him and his legs and put them on onto his pieces and onto his head and now shall burn the whole ram upon the altar it is a burnt offering unto the lord it is a sweet savor an offering by fire unto the lord whole thing you say well why was it cut up you know i mean there's there's things you can obviously look at it that his body was broken obviously none of his bones were broken but the idea of uh you know that i that symbolism may be there but in the end he holistically gave himself an offering for sin whose own self bear our sins in his own body on the tree no doubt that his body bore our sins but you know isaiah says when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin he shall see his seed he shall prolong his days and the and uh i'm gonna mess up that that quote and uh something they shall prosper in his hand i'm gonna mess that up but it says that shall see of the travail of his soul shall be satisfied and it talks about how uh he by by his knowledge how my righteous servant justify many for he shall bear their iniquities so don't tell me his soul didn't bear the sins of the world because it did holistically that whole ram that whole ram was burnt notice it says thou shall burn the whole ram upon the altar the whole thing unless you look at the book and be like i'm trying to separate that a little bit there again each sacrifice represents certain things okay um you know the first sacrifice does kind of represent where is his body actually going to die right but when it comes to the burn offering um i believe that's holistically that you're dealing with there now look at verse 19 there it's interesting what they do with this this this other ram so that one it kind of just says hey this is just the whole burn offering right they just they they don't burn the whole thing they're not eating it they're not doing anything else with it they're just burning that whole thing up that makes sense what about this other ram though it says in verse 19 and now shall take the other ram and aaron and his son shall put their hands upon the head of the ram so same thing over and over again with all three animals here then shalt thou kill the ram and take his blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of aaron and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons and upon the thumb of their right hand and upon the great toe of the right foot and sprinkle the blood upon the altar roundabout and i shall take of the blood that is upon the altar and of the anointing oil and sprinkle it upon aaron and upon his garments and upon his sons and upon the garments of his sons with him and he shall be hallowed and his garments and his sons and his sons garments with him so basically all their garments are just sprinkled with this blood but it's interesting that it talks about you know basically on the right ear on the right hand or thumb and on the right big toe as far as that goes there's a verse in the bible talks about how i mean if a man's heart is at his right hand basically right and being at his left hand i don't i don't believe this is a shot at left-handed people okay just remember that e hud was left-handed and he killed eglon the very fat man and he was a good character okay so i'm not against left-handed people but the bible does basically talk about you know jesus is at the right of the father you know the right hand of his power and it has to do with obviously power and things like that what's interesting about this is that there is other places where the priest will do this other people and what it has to do with is cleansing so i'm not going to have you turn there but leviticus chapter 14 i just read through leviticus 14 so 13 and 14 is dealing with leprosy okay so you're dealing with leprosy of like just the body leprosy of a garment leprosy of a house and they would basically to cleanse somebody they would do this same thing with the blood of the sacrifice and they put it on the right ear right thumb right big toe okay so this isn't just specific to the priests and i think that's interesting because to me what that tells me is that it's not just a priestly thing right because there's other applications for it and it talks about in those verses about cleansing so it's really about just showing the cleansing of the blood right washed in the blood of the lamb uh you know the blood of sprinkling if you will because that's obviously uh you know we talk about just taking his own blood into the holy place and it talks about uh the blood of sprinkling when it comes to jesus okay so the garments are sprinkled with blood we we know in hebrew chapter 9 talks about how the book is sprinkled or it talks about how the tabernacle and all the vessels are sprinkled with blood and what is that doing it's cleansing it so being made white in the blood of the lamb if you will the idea of cleansing that's going on there so um i don't have some like awesome nugget of truth of why it's the ear or the right thumb or the right big toe besides the fact that it's i believe showing cleansing that's going on there um and the right side obviously the bible talks a lot about um you know the right and the left and the right being the right side so um now going back to uh to the this offering of this ram so this second lamb if you will a ram i'm sorry um is used to put blood upon uh these priests upon their garments verse 22 here it's also going to be used in tandem with the unleavened bread so at this point we haven't seen anything done with this unleavened bread right the bread the wafers the uh the cakes uh so now we're going to get into some heave offerings and some wave offerings okay and you'll see this in leviticus you'll see this in other places where it talks about heave offering wave offerings when it comes to the feast of the lord there's heave offering offerings there's wave offerings but uh let's read this in verse 22 it says now shall take of the ram and the fat and the rump and the fat that covereth the inwards and the call above the liver and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and the right shoulder for it is a ram of consecration so if you remember you know we had the burn off the first one was a burn offering which this is going to be a burn offering as well but it's not going to be just completely burned up okay there's going to be something other things that are being done with this animal so we see that okay there's certain pieces of this animal notice the rump you know the kidneys the call above the liver all this stuff and it says and says and in verse 23 and one loaf of bread and one cake of oil bread and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the lord so we see each piece right the bread the cake and the wafer so one piece of each out of the basket verse 24 it says now shall put all in the hands of aaron and in the hands of his sons and shall wave them for a wave offering before the lord and thou shalt receive them of their hands and burn them upon the altar for a burn offering for a sweet savor before the lord it is an offering made by fire into the lord so they're literally just burning this all up okay so you kind of see what's going on they don't take every bit of the bread out or every bit of the unleavened bread wafers and cakes they don't take every bit of the animal either right it's like the right shoulder the rump like there's it's not everything but they're gonna they're gonna wave it and i don't know exactly how that's done as far as if they wave it before the lord or whatever they do it doesn't exactly say from the left to the right you know like they they're waving this thing but if you think about waving i guess it could be like that you know and a heave i think of like bringing something up so i do think there's probably a little difference between the wave and the heave but either way they're burning this upon the altar verse 26 and thou shalt take the breast of the ram of erin's consecration and wave it for a wave offering before the lord and it shall be thy part and thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave offering and the shoulder of the heave offering so we see here that you say well i thought they already burned up the shoulder the right shoulder right every word is important there but it says that's how the the the the shoulder of the heave offering which is waved and which is heaved up so you have the breast that's waved in the shoulder that's heaved and it says and of the ram of the consecration even of that which is is for erin and of that which is for his sons and it shall be erin's and his sons by a statute forever from the children of israel for it is an heave offering and it shall be a heave offering from the children of israel of this of the sacrifice of their peace offerings even their their heave offering unto the lord okay so they're taking these different pieces uh we're going to see later that they're going to actually eat portions of this animal okay so they're actually going to eat uh so not everything is just being completely burned up okay so but in verse 29 here it kind of has this little separation here dealing with uh the sacrifice it kind of gives you a little information here about what happens when erin's gone right you know erin's not always going to be alive what happens when the high priest dies if you will verse 29 it says in the holy garments of erin shall be his sons after him to be anointed therein and to be consecrated in them and that son that is priest in his stead shall we shall put them on seven days when he cometh into the tabernacle of the congregation to minister in the holy place so there's a seven-day period where he has to be consecrated and we're going to get into more detail about that it talks about the seven days of consecrating so this doesn't take place in one day but when there's a transfer of the high priest right let's say erin dies and erin does die in numbers and eliezar is going to pick up that mantle right and you have eliezar and ithamar are his two sons and uh basically it's just kind of telling you that it's going to go to his sons and then you say what about anybody else it's of the house of erin so it's going to be his sons and their sons and their sons and their sons going down the line all the way up till the day where jesus is you know in the temple you know the levites it's got to be the heir of erin is the priesthood okay now look at verse 31 they're dealing with this ram of consecration again verse 31 it says now shall take the ram of the consecration and sieve his flesh in the holy place so what does see the meeting but it means the boil right so when they're they're basically going to eat this this animal okay um this is where you get if you remember the story of eli and his sons they're just eating it raw right and there's problems with uh you know eli's two children they're first of all children of the devil so you know they're reprobates but um you notice here that it's saying the seed is flesh so you're eating it cooked but you're eating in a specific way okay in verse 32 it says an erin and his son shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread is in the basket by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation so basically what's left of this ram they're going to eat it and then what's left in the basket after these offerings they're going to eat that okay so uh keep reading there in verse 33 it says they shall eat those things wherewith the atonement was made to consecrate and to sanctify them but a stranger shall not eat thereof because they are holy and if ought of the flesh of the consecrations and of the bread remain until the morning then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire it shall not be eaten because it is holy so let's think about obviously they're eating this and and notice that they're eating that which basically atone for them consecrated them and sanctified them can you think of how this pictures jesus okay go to matthew chapter 26 i'm not going to belabor this point but uh think about the lord's supper and obviously you know what it represents okay because these animals never took away sins right it says the blood of bulls and goats shall never should never take shall never take away sins okay but what did it represent it represented jesus who does take away sins and when they eat these animals you know it's representing eating that which is supposed to be sanctifying them that which is atoning for them right so think about that in light of the new testament which they're supposed you know eating this the passover lamb right you know obviously jesus is our passover christ our passover but in verse 26 of matthew 26 it says and as they were eating jesus took bread and blessed it and break it and gave it to his disciple to the disciples and said take eat this is my body and he took the cup and gave thanks and gave it to them saying drink ye all of it for this is my blood of the new testament which is shed for many for the remission of sins so the whole point of his body in it and the blood is what that that's what's given to atone for our sins that's how we're sanctified that's how we're washed right that's how we're glorified you know and so this fits perfectly with that and the fact that they're eating that which sanctified that which consecrated them that which atoned for them they're eating it okay so really the unleavened bread it kind of represents jesus doesn't it that the animals represent jesus now we already saw that but could you not see that the unleavened bread would represent jesus when he's called the bread of life right and uh and the fact that obviously they're eating bread they're breaking the bread right and eating that um now people obviously you know the catholics will be like oh we're actually eating his flesh and actually eat and drinking his blood and i love the the passage in john chapter 6 because he's really just doubling down on what he's saying but unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you have no life in you but then he says the words that i speak into you they are spirit and they are life and it really comes down to the fact that we're dealing with uh you know the word of god eating the word of god that's how you get saved but obviously eating the bread and drinking the juice represents the body and the blood and notice that it even says in the nexus chapter 29 that if any remain until the morning now in some places in the bible they will actually talk about on the third day that you have to get rid of it right that's an abomination if it goes past the third day but here it says into the morning remember each sacrifice doesn't represent every little bit every every detail of what jesus did but can you imagine why it would say that basically don't let any remain into the morning because what happens on the morning he's resurrected right i mean the idea of that jesus rose again early the first day of the week right early in the morning the first day of the week so um just so many different aspects of how this represents jesus and it's funny how people we're just out you know soul winning this this past sunday and and someone's just like what's the old testament you know why why why did uh you know why is there a new testament you know what what's why they have to replace you know it's like you have no idea what the point of the old testament is and most people don't have any idea what the point of the old testament they think it's like well we tried this and it didn't work or that the new testament is just a completely different uh it's just completely negating and just completely just saying oh yeah don't even regard that as if it's nothing no jesus said i came not to destroy the law and the promise but to fulfill okay and you can see it being fulfilled on every page that you're looking down on here that yes yes yes everything's being fulfilled and uh but go to uh back to Exodus chapter 29 verse 35 i'm almost done here hopefully so um it's a longer chapter so this uh consecration of the altar and of the priests it goes on for at least for the altar itself goes on for seven days but if you remember the the sons they have to be consecrated for seven days if they take up that mantle of the high priest so this this goes on it's not just a one-day thing but in verse 35 here notice what it says and thus shalt thou do unto Aaron and his sons according to all things which i have commanded thee seven days shalt thou consecrate them okay so it's seven days long it says now shall offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for atonement and thou shalt cleanse the altar when thou hast made an atonement for it and thou shalt anoint it to sanctify it seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar and sanctify it and it shall be an altar most holy whatsoever touched at the altar shall be holy so seven days long this is going on and they're killing a bullock every single day that they're sanctifying both Aaron and his sons and the altar okay notice in verse 38 here now it's getting into the daily sacrifice okay now it's just talking it says now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar two lambs of the first year day by day continuing so this is actually and if you were to look in the numbers it talks about the daily sacrifice as well so what you have to understand is that in the old testament they were sacrificing animals every single day every day and depending on what day it was or whether there's listen the daily sacrifice if there's a big feast they still did the daily sacrifice and if the feast fell on a sabbath like the the end of the week sabbath they still did those sacrifices for the sabbath on that day so these sacrifices i want you to think about two lambs every day for a year you know i mean if you had one every day for for a year what do you have 360 i guess if they were doing you know like the 360 day calendar right so what 720 every single day is that right where's my mathematicians at 720 uh for uh for a year if you did two lambs every single day that's just a daily sacrifice so when people you got a bloody religion you better believe it i mean like good night the old testament they're just slaying animals like oh you know i you know should we be killing animals and eating them well i don't know i mean look at the look at the old testament i mean good night for just hundreds of years they're just slaying animals i mean just every day morning and evening and throughout the day just just killing animals so uh yeah i don't think you know obviously in the new testament even says slay and eat you know when he's talking about the animals that are coming down that are even unclean compared you know what it was in the old testament but uh so we see here that there's this two lambs of the first year day by day continually okay so this isn't you know basically this is kind of getting off on a new subject after the consecration here it says the one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even so when you're reading through the the new testament have you ever heard this phrase when they had offered up the evening sacrifice you read that in the old or in the new testament and it doesn't it's not really pertinent to necessarily the story as much as it's just kind of telling you what time of day it is but what's going on what are they talking about the daily sacrifice they're killing the evening lamb that they do every single day right you say why is this important so you know what's going on right so you know like there's a reason why they're doing that that that's actually what they're supposed to be doing according to the to the old testament okay now uh going on from that in verse 40 it says and with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an animal a beaten oil in the fourth part of a hen of wine for a drink offering in the other lamb thou shalt offer at even and thou shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning and according to the drink offering thereof for a sweet savor and offering made by fire unto the lord this shall be a continual burn offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the lord where i will meet you to speak there unto thee so every single day this is going on and the meat offering and the drink offering is done so the flour mingled with oil uh you know they're doing this offering uh with the lamb and all that uh both morning and evening okay the thing that's interesting about this and you know as i preached on wine in the bible because it talks about this drink offering being wine fourth part of a hint of of wine um that this is actually you know when it talks about in deuteronomy chapter 14 where uh you're basically if you if you're traveling far you can make all your stuff in the money then when you get there you can purchase whatever you need and they're like well what would you need uh you know strong drink for you know what do you need a wine for unless you're just gonna be drinking it right and that's their big argument is deuteronomy 14 you know what's interesting about this is that in numbers 28 dealing with the daily sacrifice notice what it says if you want to turn to number chapter 28 verse 7 this drink offering that's done both in the morning and evening every single day 720 times a year notice what says in verse 7 and the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of a hen for the one lamb and the holy place shall thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the lord for a drink offering are the priests drinking that is anybody else drinking that so you're saying well what do you need all this strong drink for what do you need all this strong you know all this wine there's alcoholic wine for unless you're going to consume it uh how about twice a day every day for the year the priests need alcoholic wine to pour out before the lord you're like well what's the what's the purpose of that well there's actually one sacrifice where they use leaven bread there's a reason for it you know there's the thanksgiving offering now i'm not here to preach to you why it's leavens in thanksgiving offering but i'm sure there's you know a spiritual application for that or why this is dealing with alcoholic uh wine when you're dealing with that drink offering but here's one way to get rid of all your alcohol give it unto the lord for a drink offering you know and uh anyway so i just kind of want to hit on that that when people are trying to say you know like oh you know in deuteronomy 14 uh this is all for them to consume no actually the whole point of the chapter was that whatever they were bringing to the lord if they didn't want to take it with them to make it into money and buy it when they get there and that's exactly what they're talking about they're buying all their sacrifices they're not in the temple by the way because that's why jesus threw them out of the temple but you can buy it just don't do it in the temple okay now last thing here in exodus chapter 29 verse 43 it says in there i will meet with the children of israel and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by my glory and i will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation in the altar and i will sanctify also both aaron and his sons to minister to me in the priest's office and i will dwell among the children of israel and i will be their god and they shall know that i am the lord their god that brought them forth out of the land of egypt that i may dwell among them i am the lord their god now what this makes me think of is obviously he's saying if you do all this and you sanctify yourselves before me i will be your god i will dwell among you is go to second corinthian chapter six and kind of the new testament application of this if you think about it what are they sanctifying but the tabernacle the priests right new testament translation right well obviously you have the house of god which would be the church of the living god right but you also have the fact that each one of us are bodies of the temple of the holy ghost right and we're all kings and priests unto the lord as believers and the idea here is that physically speaking we have to on a daily basis sanctify ourselves for the master's use right because inwardly speaking we're sanctified we're completely purified we're consecrated to him but physically speaking we're not and just as much as they were doing these daily sacrifices to make sure everything was was clean and sanctified and all that we die daily right that the the idea there is that we die daily on a daily basis we're trying to put off the old man and put on the new and notice what it says in second corinthian chapter six and verse 14 be not unequally yoked with unbeliever together with unbelievers for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness and what communion hath light with darkness and what concord hath christ with belial or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel and what agreement hath the temple of god with idols and ye are the temple of the living god as god hath said i will dwell in them and walk in them and i will be their god and they shall be my people sound familiar to what he's saying to the children of israel notice in verse 17 wherefore come out from among them and be separate said the lord and touch not the unclean thing and i will receive you so he's talking about being clean coming out from among them going without the camp right and it says and i will be a father unto you and you shall be my sons and daughters said the lord almighty you say well i thought we were already children of god once we believe we are inwardly what he's talking about is physically right is that when you put on the new man that's when you're walking in as a child of god right you're walking in the spirit and you're you're basically uh abiding in christ you know this is talking about like abiding in the father and in the son and the holy ghost lives inside of us right it talks about not grieving the holy ghost and also the fact that if you remember if we defile the temple of god there is huge punishment for that you know committing fornication just different things that that go against the body and uh that's a whole another sermon for another day but i just kind of wanted to tie in you know lest you look at this passage on consecration of the priest and be like why do we need to know that well one it shows you a lot of what jesus did and how it was for it was a shadow of things to come but two this really does show us hey as much as they were consecrating themselves for the master's use and for the temple and all that how much more does that apply to us now our bodies are the tabernacle our bodies are the temple of god and how we're supposed to be on a daily basis cleansing out that that that flesh fleshly sins if you if you will okay and just uh putting on the new man essentially every single day and so um we have we have a couple more chapters as moses is still in the mount and seeing uh the stuff that god is showing him before we get to the fact where he comes down and sees them worshiping a golden calf so um we're gonna have the labor the the the altar of incense um it gets into some other things as well but um but basically then we're gonna get into that story of the golden calf and go through some other things with moses but then it's gonna kind of basically go back to where they're actually making these things and actually doing the stuff that he saw on the mount so at this point no one else knows this right it's kind of like if you were thinking about what we're reading right now moses is the one seeing it moses is the one hearing all this and at this point no one even knows about any of this right and then when you get into the later chapters that's where they're actually doing it performing that and uh and obviously when we go through the chapters i'm going to be trying to hit on different pieces of that so we're i'm not going to just re-preach the same sermon you're like that's why i went through exodus because i just didn't i was lazy and uh i just wanted to like you know not have to write as many sermons but um but let's end with a word prayer the only father we think of today thank you for your word thank you for the book of exodus and help us to understand all the the truths of the old testament especially with the flashlight of the new testament and and more just how miraculous how perfect your word is how everything fits together perfectly and just how obviously you had planned it out from the beginning how it was going to happen and what we're just uh thank you for the perfect word of god that we have and what we love you pray to keep us safe and be with us throughout the rest of this week as we go to work and what we love you in prayerless in jesus christ name amen so brother dave will come and sing one more song and then we'll be dismissed all right take your song books and turn to song 389 song 389 we'll sing bring them in if you would
