Leviticus 24:1-25:55

Again... "The Lord said to Moses". That just touches me every single time I read it. 

The golden lamps are to burn continuously and instructions were given for bread to be laid out.  This bread is the 'most holy' portion of the priests regular share of the offerings.  Jesus came as the bread of life ... the bread offering at the Tent of Meeting was the most holy ...

Blaspheme - how often do we take God's name in vain? How many distortions of it do we have?  Some one blasphemed God.  All who heard him were to lay hands on his head, and the entire assembly must stone him.  This mother had to watch her son get stoned for blaspheming God.  I have heard details of the physiological effects of stoning.  It is a pretty slow and painful way to die unless you get one to the head just right.  God goes on to tell the Israelites that if they kill, they'll be killed, eye for an eye, fracture for a fracture.  Aren't we thankful that Jesus took that requirement away. Now we are to forgive, not take an eye, or life.

Sabbath Year - this is the 7th year - fields are to be given a year of rest. But what the land produces without being worked can be used for food and animal feed.

Year of Jubilee - 50 years (the year after the 7th sabbath)  They were to eat only what was taken directly from the vines.  No sowing or reaping.  The Year of Jubilee also has special rules for land ownership, sale and trade.  Servants are to be released.  It seems to be a times of restructuring and renewal.  Something we would all benefit from at times.
