Going through the Bible a chapter a day

Welcome to a weeks review, we last left off with Numbers 6.

Numbers 6: (from my Bible notes)verses 1-20: These verses outline the vow of the Nazarite. Temporary vow of spiritual dedication. There are three marks of this vow, called a separation to God: abstaining from wine and grape products, not touching dead bodies, and not cutting one’s hair. The word translated to the Nazarite is related to a Hebrew term that carries the idea of both a vow and a crown. Below is notes from my Bible on verses 22-27.

Numbers 7: (notes from my Bible) Chapters 7-9 describe the dedication of the tabernacle. The events of chapters 7-9 actually precede the events described in chapters 1-6. Numbers 7 is the second longest chapter in the Bible. It describes the 12 day festival in which the people bring gifts to be used in the tabernacle. Each day different tribes send a representative to offer the gifts. There is much repetition, but to the original readers of Numbers this repetition is understood as emphasis.

Numbers 8: God is establishing what it means to be set apart for His service. First Peter 2:9 tells us that all believers are a “royal priesthood.” We are set apart unto God for His purpose and glory.

Numbers 9: God commands them to commemorate the passover.

Nunbers 10: God commands Moses to make two hammered trumpets of silver. They were blown for several reasons to gather the people, to sound the alarm for the camps to begin to move, and to mark solemn days.

Numbers 11: the Israelites were complaining and not turninv their attention to God. Complaining because of the food provided by God and had forgotten all God had provided and got them out of enslavement as part of their lives in Egypt and only remember the food.

Below is a note from my Bible for Chapter 12 of Numbers:

Chapter 12 in my Bible is titled The Murmuring of Miriam and Aaron. They are dissatistfied with Moses and challenge the leadership of Moses sole mediator between God and Israel. Of course we see that the charges are dropped against Moses and Miram contracts Leprosy as being the sole leader. Aaron appolizes to Moses and oleads to Moses on behalf of Miram to rid her of leprosy. If you we call you are out cast and set apart from the Israelites as you are considered unclean. For they are meant to be kept Holy. Moses goes to God on her behalf.

God bless you and your loved ones.
