New Testament

Exodus 29:34-44 New Century Version (NCV)

34. If any of the meat from that sheep or any of the bread is left the next morning, it must be burned. It must not be eaten, because it is holy.

35. “Do all these things that I commanded you to do to Aaron and his sons, and spend seven days appointing them.

36. Each day you are to offer a bull to remove the sins of Aaron and his sons so they will be given for service to the Lord. Make the altar ready for service to the Lord, and pour oil on it to make it holy.

37. Spend seven days making the altar ready for service to God and making it holy. Then the altar will become very holy, and anything that touches it must be holy.

38. “Every day from now on, offer on the altar two lambs that are one year old.

39. Offer one lamb in the morning and the other in the evening before dark.

40. In the morning, when you offer the first lamb, offer also two quarts of fine flour mixed with one quart of oil from pressed olives. Pour out a quart of wine as a drink offering.

41. Offer the second lamb in the evening with the same grain offering and drink offering as you did in the morning. This is an offering made by fire to the Lord, and its smell is pleasing to him.

42. “You must burn these things as an offering to the Lord every day, from now on, at the entrance of the Meeting Tent before the Lord. When you make the offering, I, the Lord, will meet you there and speak to you.

43. I will meet with the people of Israel there, and that place will be holy because of my glory.

44. “So I will make the Meeting Tent and the altar holy; I will also make Aaron and his sons holy so they may serve me as priests.
