Numbers 7:1-89
They brought as their gifts before the Lord six covered carts and twelve oxen—an ox from each leader and a cart from every two. These they presented before the tabernacle. The Lord said to Moses, “Accept these from them, that they may be used in the work at the tent of meeting. Give them to the Levites as each man’s work requires.”
But Moses did not give any to the Kohathites, because they were to carry on their shoulders the holy things, for which they were responsible.
For the Lord had said to Moses, “Each day one leader is to bring his offering for the dedication of the altar.” The one who brought his offering on the first day was Nahshon son of Amminadab of the tribe of Judah.
On the second day Nethanel son of Zuar, the leader of Issachar, brought his offering.
On the third day, Eliab son of Helon, the leader of the people of Zebulun, brought his offering.
On the fourth day Elizur son of Shedeur, the leader of the people of Reuben, brought his offering.
On the fifth day Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai, the leader of the people of Simeon, brought his offering.
On the twelfth day Ahira son of Enan, the leader of the people of Naphtali, brought his offering.
These were the offerings of the Israelite leaders for the dedication of the altar when it was anointed: twelve silver plates, twelve silver sprinkling bowls and twelve gold dishes. Each silver plate weighed a hundred and thirty shekels, and each sprinkling bowl seventy shekels. Altogether, the silver dishes weighed two thousand four hundred shekels,[e] according to the sanctuary shekel. The twelve gold dishes filled with incense weighed ten shekels each, according to the sanctuary shekel. Altogether, the gold dishes weighed a hundred and twenty shekels. The total number of animals for the burnt offering came to twelve young bulls, twelve rams and twelve male lambs a year old, together with their grain offering. Twelve male goats were used for the sin offering. The total number of animals for the sacrifice of the fellowship offering came to twenty-four oxen, sixty rams, sixty male goats and sixty male lambs a year old. These were the offerings for the dedication of the altar after it was anointed.
When Moses entered the tent of meeting to speak with the Lord, he heard the voice speaking to him from between the two cherubim above the atonement cover on the ark of the covenant law. In this way the Lord spoke to him.
Why?
Twelve tribes did the same devotion to the Lord, so all of the Israelites are the same before the Lord, but there is a sequence among them.
Moses heard the voice of the Lord speaking to him between the two cherubims. How do I hear the voice of the Lord? Through the Bible
How?
May my life may hear the voice of the Lord every day!
