The Perpetual Ordinances of the Sanctuary

And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 spake unto Mushah, saying,
24:2
"Command the children of Yashar'al, that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually."
24:3
"Without the vail of the testimony, in the tabernacle of the congregation, shall Aharon order it from the evening unto the morning before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 continually: it shall be a statute for ever in your generations."
24:4
"He shall order the lamps upon the pure candlestick before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 continually."
24:5

The Bread of the Presence

"And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes thereof: two tenth deals shall be in one cake."
24:6
"And thou shalt set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄."
24:7
"And thou shalt put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄."
24:8
"Chawahry Shabbat he shall set it in order before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 continually, being taken from the children of Yashar'al by an everlasting covenant."
24:9
"And it shall be Aharon's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in the qodesh (set-apart) place: for it is most qodesh unto him of the offerings of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 made by fire by a perpetual statute."
24:10

The Breach in the Camp

And the son of an Yashar'alitish woman, whose father was a Mitzrite, went out among the children of Yashar'al: and this son of the Yashar'alitish woman and a man of Yashar'al strove together in the camp;
24:11
And the Yashar'alitish woman's son blasphemed the name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and cursed. And they brought him unto Mushah: (and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:)
24:12
And they put him in ward, that the mind of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 might be shewed them.
24:13

The Sentence of the Court

And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 spake unto Mushah, saying,
24:14
"Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him."
24:15
"And thou shalt speak unto the children of Yashar'al, saying, Whosoever curseth his Alahiym shall bear his sin."
24:16
"And he that blasphemeth the name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, shall be put to death."
24:17

The Law of Equity

"And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death."
24:18
"And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast."
24:19
"And if a man cause a blemish in his neighbour; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him;"
24:20
"Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again."
24:21
"And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death."
24:22

One Manner of Law

"Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 your Alahiym."
24:23

The Execution of Judgment

And Mushah spake to the children of Yashar'al, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Yashar'al did as 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 commanded Mushah.
