THE TORAH
EXODUS
SHEMOT
The book of Exodus, known as Shemot in Hebrew, is the second book of the Torah. It continues the narrative of the Israelites’ journey and their development as a nation after the book of Genesis.
The book of Exodus chronicles the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, the revelation of the Ten Commandments and the establishment of the covenant at Mount Sinai, and the journey towards the Promised Land. It highlights the leadership of Moses, the miracles performed by G-d, and the development of the Israelite nation as a chosen people.

Exodus Chapter 30 Vividly Identifies Who and in What Manner Each and Every Step is to be Made When Conducting Service to G-d
The Sacred Items Commanded By G-d Himself vs. The Prohibited That G-d Himself Hate – All That He Commanded Not To Do
Examine the practices of the church you are in. Ask your leader where in the Hebrew-Jewish Scripture it can be found? If it is all made-up from mere men like Peter, James, John, Paul and etc., distance yourself, and do not obey it.
*Read the book of Hebrews chapter 8 in the Greek book – New Testament, and see how G-d’s Commandments/Laws are being stepped over as faulty (v. 7).
None of those claims were uttered by G-d, but completely made up.

Hashem spoke to Moses, saying: “You shall make a copper Laver and its base of copper, for washing; place it between the Tent of Meeting and the Altar, and put water there.
:17-18
From it, Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands together with their feet.

Of it you shall make oil of sacred anointment, a blended compound, the handiwork of a perfumer; it shall remain oil of sacred anointment.
:25
With it you shall anoint the Tent of Meeting and the Ark of Testimonial-tablets;

:34
You shall make it into a spice-compound, the handiwork of a perfumer, thoroughly mixed, pure and holy.
:35
The incense that you shall make – in its proportion you shall not make for yourselves; it shall remain holy to you, for Hashem.
:37
Whoever makes its like to smell it shall be cut off from his people.”
:38
1 You shall make an altar for bringing incense up in smoke; you shall make it out of acacia wood.
2 It shall be one cubit long and one cubit wide, a square, and two cubits high; its horns shall be [one piece] with it.
3 You shall overlay it with pure gold, its top, its walls all around, and its horns; and you shall make for it a golden crown all around.
4 You shall make two golden rings for it underneath its crown on its two corners, you shall make [them] on its two sides, so that it should serve as holders for poles with which to carry it.
5 You shall make the poles out of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.
6 And you shall place it in front of the dividing curtain, which is upon the Ark of Testimony, in front of the ark cover, which is upon the testimony, where I will arrange to meet with you.
7 Aaron shall make incense of spices go up in smoke upon it; every morning when he sets the lamps in order, he shall make it go up in smoke.
8 And when Aaron kindles the lights in the afternoon, he shall make it go up in smoke, continual incense before the Lord for your generations.
9 You shall offer up on it no alien incense, burnt offering, or meal offering, and you shall pour no libation upon it.
10 But Aaron shall make atonement upon its horns once a year; with the blood of the sin offering of the atonements, once a year he shall effect atonement upon it for your generations; it is a holy of holies to the Lord.
11 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 “When you take the sum of the children of Israel according to their numbers, let each one give to the Lord an atonement for his soul when they are counted; then there will be no plague among them when they are counted.
13 This they shall give, everyone who goes through the counting: half a shekel according to the holy shekel. Twenty gerahs equal one shekel; half of [such] a shekel shall be an offering to the Lord.
14 Everyone who goes through the counting, from the age of twenty and upward, shall give an offering to the Lord.
15 The rich shall give no more, and the poor shall give no less than half a shekel, with which to give the offering to the Lord, to atone for your souls.
16 You shall take the silver of the atonements from the children of Israel and use it for the work of the Tent of Meeting; it shall be a remembrance for the children of Israel before the Lord, to atone for your souls.”
17 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
18 “You shall make a washstand of copper and its base of copper for washing, and you shall place it between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and you shall put water therein.
19 Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and feet from it.
20 When they enter the Tent of Meeting, they shall wash with water so that they will not die; or when they approach the altar to serve, to make a fire offering rise up in smoke to the Lord,
21 they shall wash their hands and feet so that they will not die; this shall be for them a perpetual statute, for him and for his descendants, for their generations.”
22 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23 “And you, take for yourself spices of the finest sort: of pure myrrh five hundred [shekel weights]; of fragrant cinnamon half of it two hundred and fifty [shekel weights]; of fragrant cane two hundred and fifty [shekel weights],
24 and of cassia five hundred [shekel weights] according to the holy shekel, and one hin of olive oil.
25 You shall make this into an oil of holy anoinment, a perfumed compound according to the art of a perfumer; it shall be an oil of holy anointment.
26 And you shall anoint with it the Tent of Meeting and the Ark of Testimony,
27 the table and all its implements, the menorah and its implements, the altar of incense,
28 the altar of the burnt offering and all its implements, the washstand and its base.
29 And you shall sanctify them so that they become a holy of holies; whatever touches them shall become holy.
30 And with it you shall anoint Aaron and his sons and sanctify them to serve Me [as kohanim].
31 And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying: ‘This shall be oil of holy anointment to Me for your generations.
32 It shall not be poured upon human flesh, and according to its formula you shall not make anything like it. It is holy; it shall be holy to you.
33 Any person who compounds anything like it or puts any of it on an alien shall be cut off from his people.’ “
34 And the Lord said to Moses: “Take for yourself aromatics, [namely] balsam sap, onycha and galbanum, aromatics and pure frankincense; they shall be of equal weight.
35 And you shall make it into incense, a compound according to the art of the perfumer, well blended, pure, holy.
36 And you shall crush some of it very finely, and you shall set some of it before the testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will arrange meetings with you; it shall be to you a holy of holies.
37 And the incense that you make, you shall not make for yourselves according to its formula; it shall be holy to you for the Lord.
38 Any person who makes anything like it, to smell it[s fragrance], shall be cut off from his people.

TORAH
(Law)
The book of Deuteronomy, also known as Devarim in Hebrew (“Words”), is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament. It contains a series of speeches by Moses to the Israelites, just before they are about to enter the promised land, which summarize and expand upon many of the laws and commandments given in the earlier books of the Torah. The word Deuteronomy literally means “second law,” indicating that Moses is rehearsing the law with the Israelites before they enter the land.
The book is often seen as a sort of farewell address by Moses, containing some of his final instructions and blessings to the people he has led for many years. It emphasizes the importance of following G-d’s commandments and remaining faithful to Him, while warning against the dangers of disobedience and idolatry. Overall, Deuteronomy serves as a significant text in the history of Judaism and Christianity, containing many of the foundational beliefs and values of these religions.
