Löydetty 7081 Tulokset: Word Of The Lord
If it is the whole congregation that has thus unwittingly offended, they must offer a bullock, a burnt-sacrifice to please the Lord with the smell of its burning, and the bloodless offering and libations which due order demands; a goat, too, by way of offering for a fault.✻ (Numbers 15, 24)
So the priest will make intercession for the whole congregation of Israel, and their fault shall be pardoned. It was an unwitting offence, and even so they have brought the Lord burnt-sacrifice, and a victim for fault, to atone for their error. (Numbers 15, 25)
But if anyone, citizen or alien, is guilty of an offence through pride, and in a spirit of rebellion against the Lord, he is lost to his people. (Numbers 15, 30)
Would he despise the Lord’s word, annul his commandment? That fault deserves death, and he will be held to account for it. (Numbers 15, 31)
But the Lord said to Moses, His life must pay for it; he must be stoned by the whole multitude, away from the camp. (Numbers 15, 35)
So they took him out and stoned him to death, as the Lord had bidden them. (Numbers 15, 36)
This, too, was the Lord’s word to Moses, (Numbers 15, 37)
reminding themselves, as they look on these, of all the commandments the Lord has given them. They must not let their thoughts and eyes wander free, into all manner of unfaithfulness, (Numbers 15, 39)
but rather bethink them of the Lord’s decrees and carry them out, a people set apart for their God; (Numbers 15, 40)
and that God the Lord, who brought them out of the land of Egypt to make them his own people. (Numbers 15, 41)
And they confronted Moses and Aaron, making their protest thus: You presume too much; are not all the Israelites men set apart? Does not the Lord make his dwelling among all of us alike? We are the Lord’s people; who are you that you should take command of us?✻ (Numbers 16, 3)
To Core, and to his faction, he said, Wait until to-morrow; then the Lord will make it plain which of us he has set apart for himself, and admit them to his presence. Those whom the Lord has chosen will find access to him. (Numbers 16, 5)
