My Song In The Night (Exodus)
我夜间的歌曲《出埃及记》
Text: Exodus 30: 22-33
MEDITATION
Exodus 30:22-33
22 Moreover the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:
23 “Also take for yourself quality spices—five hundred shekels of liquid myrrh, half as much sweet-smelling cinnamon (two hundred and fifty shekels), two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet-smelling cane,
24 five hundred shekels of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a hin of olive oil.
25 And you shall make from these a holy anointing oil, an ointment compounded according to the art of the perfumer. It shall be a holy anointing oil.
26 With it you shall anoint the tabernacle of meeting and the ark of the Testimony;
27 the table and all its utensils, the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense;
28 the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the laver and its base.
29 You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy; whatever touches them must be holy.
30 And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister to Me as priests.
31 “And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations.
32 It shall not be poured on man’s flesh; nor shall you make any other like it, according to its composition. It is holy, and it shall be holy to you.
33 Whoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on an outsider, shall be cut off from his people.’”

经文:出埃及记 30:22-33
沉思
《出埃及记 30: 22-33》
22 耶和华晓谕摩西说:
23 “你要取上品的香料,就是流质的没药五百舍客勒,香肉桂一半,就是二百五十舍客勒,菖蒲二百五十舍客勒,
24 桂皮五百舍客勒,都按着圣所的平,又取橄榄油一欣,
25 按做香之法调和做成圣膏油。
26 要用这膏油抹会幕和法柜,
27 桌子与桌子的一切器具,灯台和灯台的器具并香坛,
28 燔祭坛和坛的一切器具,洗濯盆和盆座。
29 要使这些物成为圣,好成为至圣,凡挨着的都成为圣。
30 要膏亚伦和他的儿子,使他们成为圣,可以给我供祭司的职分。
31 你要对以色列人说:‘这油,我要世世代代以为圣膏油。
32 不可倒在别人的身上,也不可按这调和之法做与此相似的。这膏油是圣的,你们也要以为圣。33凡调和与此相似的,或将这膏膏在别人身上的,这人要从民中剪除。’”
