Bible Reading for September 24

Ezekiel 43
[1] Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the
east:
[2] And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east:
and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his
glory.
[3] And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even
according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the
visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my
face.
[4] And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose
prospect is toward the east.
[5] So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold,
the glory of the LORD filled the house. [6] And I heard him speaking unto me
out of the house; and the man stood by me.
[7] And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of
the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel
for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither
they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in
their high places.
[8] In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their post by my
posts, and the wall between me and them, they have even defiled my holy name by
their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in
mine anger.
[9] Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases of their kings, far
from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever. [10] Thou son of man,
shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their
iniquities: and let them measure the pattern. [11] And if they be ashamed of
all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion
thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the
forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and
all the laws thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole
form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.
[12] This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit
thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
[13] And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit is a
cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a
cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about shall be a span:
and this shall be the higher place of the altar. [14] And from the bottom upon
the ground even to the lower settle shall be two cubits, and the breadth one
cubit; and from the lesser settle even to the greater settle shall be four
cubits, and the breadth one cubit. [15] So the altar shall be four cubits; and
from the altar and upward shall be four horns.
[16] And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve broad, square in the
four squares thereof.
[17] And the settle shall be fourteen cubits long and fourteen broad in the
four squares thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the
bottom thereof shall be a cubit about; and his stairs shall look toward the
east.
[18] And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; These are the
ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt
offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon. [19] And thou shalt give to
the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach unto me,
to minister unto me, saith the Lord GOD, a young bullock for a sin offering.
[20] And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on the four horns of
it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the border round about:
thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it. [21] Thou shalt take the bullock also of
the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house,
without the sanctuary. [22] And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the
goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as
they did cleanse it with the bullock.
[23] When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young
bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish. [24] And
thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon
them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering unto the LORD.
[25] Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they
shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without
blemish.
[26] Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall
consecrate themselves.
[27] And when these days are expired, it shall be, that upon the eighth day,
and so forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar, and
your peace offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord GOD.

Ezekiel 44
[1] Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which
looketh toward the east; and it was shut. [2] Then said the LORD unto me; This
gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it;
because the LORD, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore it shall
be shut. [3] It is for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread
before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate, and shall
go out by the way of the same.
[4] Then brought he me the way of the north gate before the house: and I
looked, and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD: and I
fell upon my face.
[5] And the LORD said unto me, Son of man, mark well, and behold with thine
eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say unto thee concerning all the
ordinances of the house of the LORD, and all the laws thereof; and mark well
the entering in of the house, with every going forth of the sanctuary. [6] And
thou shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus saith the
Lord GOD; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,
[7] In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers, uncircumcised in
heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even
my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken
my covenant because of all your abominations. [8] And ye have not kept the
charge of mine holy things: but ye have set keepers of my charge in my
sanctuary for yourselves. [9] Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger,
uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my
sanctuary, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel.
[10] And the Levites that are gone away far from me, when Israel went astray,
which went astray away from me after their idols; they shall even bear their
iniquity.
[11] Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having charge at the gates of
the house, and ministering to the house: they shall slay the burnt offering and
the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister unto
them.
[12] Because they ministered unto them before their idols, and caused the house
of Israel to fall into iniquity; therefore have I lifted up mine hand against
them, saith the Lord GOD, and they shall bear their iniquity. [13] And they
shall not come near unto me, to do the office of a priest unto me, nor to come
near to any of my holy things, in the most holy place: but they shall bear
their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.
[14] But I will make them keepers of the charge of the house, for all the
service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein. [15] But the priests
the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the
children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister
unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer unto me the fat and the blood,
saith the Lord GOD: [16] They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall
come near to my table, to minister unto me, and they shall keep my charge. [17]
And it shall come to pass, that when they enter in at the gates of the inner
court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon
them, whiles they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
[18] They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen
breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with any thing that
causeth sweat.
[19] And when they go forth into the utter court, even into the utter court to
the people, they shall put off their garments wherein they ministered, and lay
them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments; and they shall
not sanctify the people with their garments. [20] Neither shall they shave
their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their
heads. [21] Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the inner
court.
[22] Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her that is put away:
but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow that
had a priest before.
[23] And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and
profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean. [24] And
in controversy they shall stand in judgment; and they shall judge it according
to my judgments: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine
assemblies; and they shall hallow my sabbaths. [25] And they shall come at no
dead person to defile themselves: but for father, or for mother, or for son, or
for daughter, for brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may
defile themselves. [26] And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him
seven days. [27] And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, unto the
inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering,
saith the Lord GOD.
[28] And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and
ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I am their possession. [29] They
shall eat the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering;
and every dedicated thing in Israel shall be theirs. [30] And the first of all
the firstfruits of all things, and every oblation of all, of every sort of your
oblations, shall be the priest's: ye shall also give unto the priest the first
of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in thine house.
[31] The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself, or torn,
whether it be fowl or beast.

Ezekiel 45
[1] Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall
offer an oblation unto the LORD, an holy portion of the land: the length shall
be the length of five and twenty thousand reeds, and the breadth shall be ten
thousand. This shall be holy in all the borders thereof round about. [2] Of
this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred in length, with five hundred
in breadth, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs
thereof.
[3] And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of five and twenty
thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary and
the most holy place.
[4] The holy portion of the land shall be for the priests the ministers of the
sanctuary, which shall come near to minister unto the LORD: and it shall be a
place for their houses, and an holy place for the sanctuary. [5] And the five
and twenty thousand of length, and the ten thousand of breadth, shall also the
Levites, the ministers of the house, have for themselves, for a possession for
twenty chambers. [6] And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five
thousand broad, and five and twenty thousand long, over against the oblation of
the holy portion: it shall be for the whole house of Israel. [7] And a portion
shall be for the prince on the one side and on the other side of the oblation
of the holy portion, and of the possession of the city, before the oblation of
the holy portion, and before the possession of the city, from the west side
westward, and from the east side eastward: and the length shall be over against
one of the portions, from the west border unto the east border.
[8] In the land shall be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more
oppress my people; and the rest of the land shall they give to the house of
Israel according to their tribes. [9] Thus saith the Lord GOD; Let it suffice
you, O princes of Israel: remove violence and spoil, and execute judgment and
justice, take away your exactions from my people, saith the Lord GOD. [10] Ye
shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath. I [11] The ephah
and the bath shall be of one measure, that the bath may contain the tenth part
of an homer, and the ephah the tenth part of an homer: the measure thereof
shall be after the homer. [12] And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty
shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your manneh. [13]
This is the oblation that ye shall offer; the sixth part of an ephah of an
homer of wheat, and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah of an homer of
barley:
[14] Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, ye shall offer the tenth
part of a bath out of the cor, which is an homer of ten baths; for ten baths
are an homer:
[15] And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred, out of the fat pastures
of Israel; for a meat offering, and for a burnt offering, and for peace
offerings, to make reconciliation for them, saith the Lord GOD. [16] All the
people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.
[17] And it shall be the prince's part to give burnt offerings, and meat
offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the new moons, and in the
sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin
offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace
offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel. [18] Thus saith the
Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day of the month, thou shalt take a
young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary:
[19] And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it
upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the
altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court. [20] And so thou
shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him
that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the house. [21] In the first month, in
the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven
days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. [22] And upon that day shall the prince
prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin
offering. [23] And seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt offering to
the LORD, seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish daily the seven days;
and a kid of the goats daily for a sin offering. [24] And he shall prepare a
meat offering of an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and an hin of
oil for an ephah. [25] In the seventh month, in the fifteenth day of the month,
shall he do the like in the feast of the seven days, according to the sin
offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meat offering,
and according to the oil.
