aThe LORD 1called to Moses and spoke to him from the Tent of Meeting, saying,Before this God had spoken to Moses from the mountain, but now God dwelt among His people in fellowship with them and talked with His servant Moses “from the Tent of Meeting.” The people were entering into a new relationship with God.Ex 19:3; 25:22; Num 7:89 2 “Speak to the 1children of Israel and say to them, ‘When any one of you brings an aoffering to the LORD, you shall bring your offering of domestic animals from bthe herd or from the flock .In general, sons (children) of Israel or Israel or Israelites refers to all the people (males and females) of the various tribes descended from the twelve sons (Gen 35:23-26) of Jacob (later renamed Israel by God). In verses concerning things such as warfare or circumcision sons of Israel or Israel or Israelites usually refers only to the males. Tribes of ancient people were identified by the name of their founding ancestor. Therefore, this same general rule applies when referring to individual tribal groups, e.g. sons of Reuben, Reuben, Reubenites and so throughout.Mark 7:11Lev 22:18f 3 If his offering is a aburnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male bwithout blemish; he shall offer it cat the doorway of the Tent of Meeting so that he may be accepted before the LORD.

Heb 13:15, 16; 1+@Pet 1:2By laying his hands on the head of the sacrifice the offerer identified himself with it and through its death it became an atonement or covering for his sin. Because the unblemished sacrifice “covered” his sin it placed the offerer in a right relationship with God, just as later under the new covenant the perfection and sacrifice of the Christ would cover the imperfection and sin of those who identified with Him and accepted Him as Savior.Ex 29:10, 15, 19; Lev 3:2, 8Ex 29:33; Lev 4:20, 26, 31; 2 Chr 29:23, 24 5 aHe shall kill the young bull before the LORD; and Aaron’s sons the priests shall present bthe blood and csprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the doorway of the Tent of Meeting.Ex 29:11, 16, 20Lev 17:11Lev 1:11; 3:2, 8, 13; Heb 12:24; 1 Pet 1:2 6 Then ahe shall skin the burnt offering and cut it into pieces.Lev 7:8 7 aThe sons of Aaron the high priest shall put fire on the altar of burnt offering and arrange wood on the fire.Lev 6:8-13 8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, the head and the afat, on the wood which is on the fire that is on the altar.Lev 1:12; 3:3, 4; 8:20 9 But he shall wash its aentrails and its legs with water.
