WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:06.200 Chapter 18 And the LORD said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house 00:06.200 --> 00:11.160 with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary, and thou and thy sons with thee 00:11.160 --> 00:13.120 shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood. 00:13.920 --> 00:18.460 And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, 00:19.160 --> 00:23.300 bring thou with thee, that they may be joined unto thee, and minister unto thee. 00:24.100 --> 00:28.160 But thou and thy sons with thee shall minister before the tabernacle of witness, 00:28.860 --> 00:33.020 and they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle. 00:33.560 --> 00:38.000 Only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary, and the altar, 00:38.720 --> 00:41.380 that neither they nor ye also die. 00:42.180 --> 00:46.480 And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of 00:46.480 --> 00:49.700 the congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle. 00:50.140 --> 00:55.200 And a stranger shall not come nigh unto you, and ye shall keep the charge of the 00:55.200 --> 01:00.160 sanctuary, and the charge of the altar, that there be no wrath any more upon the 01:00.160 --> 01:01.060 children of Israel. 01:01.820 --> 01:06.540 And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of 01:06.540 --> 01:06.920 Israel. 01:07.340 --> 01:11.860 To you they are given as a gift for the Lord, to do the service of the tabernacle 01:11.860 --> 01:12.740 of the congregation. 01:13.800 --> 01:18.020 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's office for 01:18.020 --> 01:21.560 everything of the altar, and within the veil, and ye shall serve. 01:22.240 --> 01:25.600 I have given your priest's office unto you as a service of gift. 01:25.600 --> 01:28.700 And the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death. 01:28.840 --> 01:33.060 And the Lord spake unto Aaron, Behold, I also have given thee the charge 01:33.060 --> 01:37.120 of mine heave offerings, of all the hallowed things of the children of Israel. 01:37.980 --> 01:43.000 Unto thee have I given them by reason of the anointing, and to thy sons by an 01:43.000 --> 01:43.960 ordinance for ever. 01:44.840 --> 01:48.480 This shall be thine of the most holy things reserved from the fire, 01:48.940 --> 01:53.800 every oblation of theirs, every meat offering of theirs, and every sin offering 01:53.800 --> 01:58.880 of theirs, and every trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render unto me 01:58.880 --> 02:01.480 shall be most holy for thee and for thy sons. 02:02.420 --> 02:06.760 In the most holy place shalt thou eat it, every male shall eat it. 02:07.460 --> 02:09.140 It shall be holy unto thee. 02:10.040 --> 02:14.720 And this is thine, the heave offering of their gift, with all the wave offerings of 02:14.720 --> 02:19.520 the children of Israel, I have given them unto thee, and to thy sons, and to thy 02:19.520 --> 02:24.760 daughters with thee, by a statute for ever, everyone that is clean in thy house 02:24.760 --> 02:30.920 shall eat of it, all the best of the oil, and all the best of the wine, and of the 02:30.920 --> 02:35.740 wheat, the first fruits of them which they shall offer unto the Lord, them have I 02:35.740 --> 02:36.340 given thee. 02:36.960 --> 02:41.200 And whatsoever is first ripe in the land which they shall bring unto the Lord shall 02:41.200 --> 02:46.820 be thine, everyone that is clean in thine house shall eat of it, everything devoted 02:46.820 --> 02:52.100 in Israel shall be thine, everything that openeth the matrix in all flesh which they 02:52.100 --> 02:56.440 bring unto the Lord, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be thine. 02:57.140 --> 03:02.460 Nevertheless, the firstborn of man shalt thou surely redeem, and the firstling of 03:02.460 --> 03:06.840 unclean beasts shalt thou redeem, and those that are to be redeemed from a 03:06.840 --> 03:11.880 month old shalt thou redeem, according to thine estimation, for the money of five 03:11.880 --> 03:15.480 shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary which is twenty giras. 03:16.220 --> 03:21.160 But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of 03:21.160 --> 03:24.380 a goat, thou shalt not redeem, they are holy. 03:25.300 --> 03:29.760 Thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat for an 03:29.760 --> 03:34.620 offering made by fire for a sweet savor unto the Lord, and the flesh of them shall 03:34.620 --> 03:38.960 be thine, as the way breast, and as the right shoulder are thine. 03:39.660 --> 03:43.800 All the heave offerings of the holy things which the children of Israel offer unto 03:43.800 --> 03:49.140 the Lord, have I given thee, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee, by a statute 03:49.140 --> 03:49.660 for ever. 03:50.280 --> 03:54.860 It is a covenant of salt for ever before the Lord unto thee, and to thy seed with 03:54.860 --> 03:55.180 thee. 03:55.640 --> 03:59.580 And the Lord spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their 03:59.580 --> 04:02.920 land, neither shalt thou have any part among them. 04:03.700 --> 04:07.200 I am thy part, and thine inheritance among the children of Israel. 04:07.740 --> 04:12.040 And behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an 04:12.040 --> 04:12.500 inheritance. 04:13.260 --> 04:17.620 For their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the 04:17.620 --> 04:22.560 congregation, neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle 04:22.560 --> 04:25.580 of the congregation, lest they bear sin and die. 04:26.300 --> 04:29.760 But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, 04:30.440 --> 04:32.240 and they shall bear their iniquity. 04:32.900 --> 04:37.280 It shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations, that among the children 04:37.280 --> 04:39.460 of Israel they have no inheritance. 04:40.200 --> 04:44.560 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering unto 04:44.560 --> 04:47.700 the Lord, I have given to the Levites to inherit. 04:48.680 --> 04:53.520 Therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall 04:53.520 --> 04:54.520 have no inheritance. 04:54.900 --> 04:58.360 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Thus speak unto the Levites, 04:58.380 --> 05:02.840 and say unto them, When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have 05:02.840 --> 05:07.620 given you from them for your inheritance, then ye shall offer up an heave offering 05:07.620 --> 05:08.600 of it for the Lord. 05:08.600 --> 05:10.960 Even a tenth part of the tithe. 05:12.100 --> 05:16.320 And this your heave offering shall be reckoned unto you, as though it were the 05:16.320 --> 05:20.500 corn of the threshing floor, and as the fullness of the winepress. 05:21.720 --> 05:25.580 Thus ye also shall offer an heave offering unto the Lord of all your tithes, 05:25.940 --> 05:28.000 which ye receive of the children of Israel. 05:28.860 --> 05:32.340 And ye shall give thereof the Lord's heave offering to Aaron the priest. 05:33.280 --> 05:38.180 Out of all your gifts ye shall offer every heave offering of the Lord, of all the 05:38.180 --> 05:41.640 best thereof, even the hallowed part thereof out of it. 05:43.380 --> 05:48.520 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, When ye have heaved the best thereof from 05:48.520 --> 05:52.820 it, then it shall be counted unto the Levites as the increase of the threshing 05:52.820 --> 05:55.820 floor, and as the increase of the winepress. 05:56.420 --> 06:01.560 And ye shall eat it in every place, ye and your households, for it is your 06:01.560 --> 06:04.320 reward for your service in the tabernacle of the congregation. 06:04.920 --> 06:09.780 And ye shall bear no sin by reason of it, when ye have heaved from it the best of 06:09.780 --> 06:10.000 it. 06:10.720 --> 06:15.060 Neither shall ye pollute the holy things of the children of Israel, lest ye die.
