出埃及記29:22-37

29:22 「你要取這羊的脂油和肥尾巴，並蓋臟的脂油與肝上的網子，兩個腰子和腰子上的脂油並右腿（這是承接聖職所獻的羊）。
29:23 再從耶和華面前裝無酵餅的筐子中取一個餅，一個調油的餅和一個薄餅，
29:24 都放在亞倫的手上和他兒子的手上，作為搖祭，在耶和華面前搖一搖。
29:25 要從他們手中接過來，燒在耶和華面前壇上的燔祭上，是獻給耶和華為馨香的火祭。
29:26 「你要取亞倫承接聖職所獻公羊的胸，作為搖祭，在耶和華面前搖一搖，這就可以作你的分。
29:27 那搖祭的胸和舉祭的腿，就是承接聖職所搖的、所舉的，是歸亞倫和他兒子的。這些你都要成為聖，
29:28 作亞倫和他子孫從以色列人中永遠所得的分，因為是舉祭。這要從以色列人的平安祭中，作為獻給耶和華的舉祭。
29:29 「亞倫的聖衣要留給他的子孫，可以穿著受膏，又穿著承接聖職。
29:30 他的子孫接續他當祭司的，每逢進會幕在聖所供職的時候，要穿七天。
29:31 「你要將承接聖職所獻公羊的肉煮在聖處。
29:32 亞倫和他兒子要在會幕門口吃這羊的肉和筐內的餅。
29:33 他們吃那些贖罪之物，好承接聖職，使他們成聖；只是外人不可吃，因為這是聖物。
29:34 那承接聖職所獻的肉或餅，若有一點留到早晨，就要用火燒了，不可吃這物，因為是聖物。
29:35 「你要這樣照我一切所吩咐的，向亞倫和他兒子行承接聖職的禮七天。
29:36 每天要獻公牛一隻為贖罪祭。你潔淨壇的時候，壇就潔淨了；且要用膏抹壇，使壇成聖。
29:37 要潔淨壇七天，使壇成聖，壇就成為至聖。凡挨著壇的都成為聖。」

²² “Take from this ram the fat, the fat tail, the fat on the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, both kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh. (This is the ram for the ordination.) ²³ From the basket of bread made without yeast, which is before the Lord, take one round loaf, one thick loaf with olive oil mixed in, and one thin loaf. ²⁴ Put all these in the hands of Aaron and his sons and have them wave them before the Lord as a wave offering. ²⁵ Then take them from their hands and burn them on the altar along with the burnt offering for a pleasing aroma to the Lord, a food offering presented to the Lord. ²⁶ After you take the breast of the ram for Aaron’s ordination, wave it before the Lord as a wave offering, and it will be your share.
²⁷ “Consecrate those parts of the ordination ram that belong to Aaron and his sons: the breast that was waved and the thigh that was presented. ²⁸ This is always to be the perpetual share from the Israelites for Aaron and his sons. It is the contribution the Israelites are to make to the Lord from their fellowship offerings.
²⁹ “Aaron’s sacred garments will belong to his descendants so that they can be anointed and ordained in them. ³⁰ The son who succeeds him as priest and comes to the tent of meeting to minister in the Holy Place is to wear them seven days.
³¹ “Take the ram for the ordination and cook the meat in a sacred place. ³² At the entrance to the tent of meeting, Aaron and his sons are to eat the meat of the ram and the bread that is in the basket. ³³ They are to eat these offerings by which atonement was made for their ordination and consecration. But no one else may eat them, because they are sacred. ³⁴ And if any of the meat of the ordination ram or any bread is left over till morning, burn it up. It must not be eaten, because it is sacred.
³⁵ “Do for Aaron and his sons everything I have commanded you, taking seven days to ordain them. ³⁶ Sacrifice a bull each day as a sin offering to make atonement. Purify the altar by making atonement for it, and anoint it to consecrate it. ³⁷ For seven days make atonement for the altar and consecrate it. Then the altar will be most holy, and whatever touches it will be holy.

    祭司不是白白在會幕做義工，是會得著供應的，是來自獻祭的物。可見上帝看重是奉祂的人，不會讓是奉祂的人缺乏，這也是每一位受乎召全職事奉的人該有的體認。

    但是，這不是說帶職事奉的人，不用用關心牧者的需要，反到是要更加體會牧者的需要。自己有好吃的、有好穿的，要想像牧者好吃的、有好穿的沒有﹖要用心去關懷這些為教會事務忙碌，沒有其他收入的牧者。他們生活沒有顧慮，才能有好的事奉品質，才是教會弟兄姊妹的福分！

    雖然現在不是靠福音養生，因為有這一段牧會的經歷，也經過人生的缺乏，讓我深深感觸，是奉上帝者，經濟是一個很大的考驗，需要弟兄姊妹的扶持，雖然上帝不會讓她的僕人成為乞丐，但是弟兄姊妹要主動關懷，不可以說：牧者必須受苦，要有犧牲奉獻的精神！

     記住：牧者的缺乏，是教會之恥！

出埃及記29:10-21

29:10 「你要把公牛牽到會幕前，亞倫和他兒子要按手在公牛的頭上。
29:11 你要在耶和華面前，在會幕門口，宰這公牛。

29:13 要把一切蓋臟的脂油與肝上的網子，並兩個腰子和腰子上的脂油，都燒在壇上。
29:14 只是公牛的皮、肉、糞都要用火燒在營外。這牛是贖罪祭。
29:15 「你要牽一隻公綿羊來，亞倫和他兒子要按手在這羊的頭上。
29:16 要宰這羊，把血灑在壇的周圍。
29:17 要把羊切成塊子，洗淨五臟和腿，連塊子帶頭，都放在一處。

29:21 你要取點膏油和壇上的血，彈在亞倫和他的衣服上，並他兒子和他兒子的衣服上，他們和他們的衣服就一同成聖。

¹⁰ “Bring the bull to the front of the tent of meeting, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head. ¹¹ Slaughter it in the Lord’s presence at the entrance to the tent of meeting. ¹² Take some of the bull’s blood and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and pour out the rest of it at the base of the altar. ¹³ Then take all the fat on the internal organs, the long lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with the fat on them, and burn them on the altar. ¹⁴ But burn the bull’s flesh and its hide and its intestines outside the camp. It is a sin offering.^[b]
15 “Take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head. ¹⁶ Slaughter it and take the blood and splash it against the sides of the altar. ¹⁷ Cut the ram into pieces and wash the internal organs and the legs, putting them with the head and the other pieces. ¹⁸ Then burn the entire ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing aroma, a food offering presented to the Lord.
¹⁹ “Take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head. ²⁰ Slaughter it, take some of its blood and put it on the lobes of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Then splash blood against the sides of the altar. ²¹ And take some blood from the altar and some of the anointing oil and sprinkle it on Aaron and his garments and on his sons and their garments. Then he and his sons and their garments will be consecrated.

    血是用來做淨化和遮蓋人的罪惡用的，好使人和物品在上帝面前被接納為聖物！這也就是說到，基督得寶血可以是我們在上帝的眼中得改變，這一切都是恩典，不是我們努力來的！

    我們清楚不是我們做了什麼，而是上帝透過基督的寶血所成就的一切，我們就當榮耀歸給上帝，這樣就會因為基督的緣故而得上帝的喜歡！這都是基督按照上帝旨意，為我們死在十字架上所帶來的！

    求主再次讓我們認清，一切都是上帝的恩典！

出埃及記29:1-9

29:1 「你使亞倫和他兒子成聖，給我供祭司的職分，要如此行：取一隻公牛犢，兩隻無殘疾的公綿羊，
29:2 無酵餅和調油的無酵餅，與抹油的無酵薄餅；這都要用細麥麵做成。
29:3 這餅要裝在一個筐子裡，連筐子帶來，又把公牛和兩隻公綿羊牽來。
29:4 要使亞倫和他兒子到會幕門口來，用水洗身。
29:5 要給亞倫穿上內袍和以弗得的外袍，並以弗得，又帶上胸牌，束上以弗得巧工織的帶子。
29:6 把冠冕戴在他頭上，將聖冠加在冠冕上，
29:7 就把膏油倒在他頭上膏他。
29:8 要叫他的兒子來，給他們穿上內袍。
29:9 給亞倫和他兒子束上腰帶，包上裹頭巾，他們就憑永遠的定例得了祭司的職任。又要將亞倫和他兒子分別為聖。

“This is what you are to do to consecrate them, so they may serve me as priests: Take a young bull and two rams without defect. ² And from the finest wheat flour make round loaves without yeast, thick loaves without yeast and with olive oil mixed in, and thin loaves without yeast and brushed with olive oil. ³ Put them in a basket and present them along with the bull and the two rams. ⁴ Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the tent of meeting and wash them with water. ⁵ Take the garments and dress Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod itself and the breastpiece. Fasten the ephod on him by its skillfully woven waistband. ⁶ Put the turban on his head and attach the sacred emblem to the turban. ⁷ Take the anointing oil and anoint him by pouring it on his head. ⁸ Bring his sons and dress them in tunics ⁹ and fasten caps on them. Then tie sashes on Aaron and his sons.^[a] The priesthood is theirs by a lasting ordinance.

“Then you shall ordain Aaron and his sons.

    上帝使亞倫的兒子成為祭司，不是靠修行或任何的訓練造就會，而是靠著禮儀的過程。就像限贖罪祭、素祭、洗身、穿以弗得、戴冠冕，在加上膏油的塗抹、…！這樣就有祭司資格，可以來服事上帝！

    這些都是預表基督在我們身上所做的一切，也說明了人不是考自己的努力才可以成聖，是要靠上帝在基督裡所預定的一切！也因此，我們要提醒自己，不是靠自己成聖，是靠基督在十字架所完成的，我們才可以成聖！

    這也是基督信仰與其他宗教或信仰不同之處，一切都是要倚靠基督，所以以我們謙卑將榮耀都歸給上帝，不要歸給自己！
