READING LIST FOR LAW AND HISTORY

Today's Reading: Leviticus 24

King James Version with Web Encyclopedia Links:Leviticus 24

Leviticus 24 spoke about oil and bread set before the Lord (Lev 24.1-9; Exo 27.20-21) and a blasphemer was stoned. Again, the lamps be kept burning continually (v. 2), the lampstand must be continually taken care of day and night. This is the light shining in the wilderness just as how our lights (Mat 5.14) should be shining in the world because Jesus is the Light. (John 8.12) The bread was for the Aaron and his sons, only so they could eat it in holy place.
In the second half of the chapter, a blasphemer was stoned. Today, this would be a trivial matter because we do not take the name of the Lord seriously and this includes christians. Today God's and Jesus' names are common curse words, even among christians who cannot control their tongue. God's name is a name to be revered. The third commandment states that we should not misuse the name of the Lord our God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name." We should not profane nor blaspheme His name.
