(Exodus 27:20–21)
1
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2
Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the finest and dearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,
3
Without the veil of the testimony in the tabernacle of the covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.
4
They shall be set upon the most pure candlestick before the Lord continually.

The Showbread

(Exodus 25:23–30; Exodus 37:10–16)
5
Thou shalt take also fine hour, and shalt bake twelve leaves thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf:
6
And thou shalt set them six and six one against another upon the most clean table before the Lord:
7
And thou shalt put upon them the dearest frankincense, that the bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
8
Every sabbath they shall be changed before the Lord, being received of the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant:
9
And they shall be Aaron’s and his sons’, that they may eat them in the holy place: because it is most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord by a perpetual right.

Punishment for Blasphemy

10
And behold there went out the son of a woman of Israel, whom she had of an Egyptian, among the children of Israel, and fell at words in the camp with a man of Israel.
11
And when he had blasphemed the name, and had cursed it, he was brought to Moses: (now his mother was called Salumith, the daughter of Dabri, of the tribe of Dan:)
12
And they put him into prison, till they might know what the Lord would command.
13
And the Lord spoke to Moses,
14
Saying: Bring forth the blasphemer without the camp, and let them that heard him, put their hands upon his head, and let all the people stone him.
15
And thou shalt speak to the children of Israel: the man that curseth his God, shall bear his sin:
16
And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die: all the multitude shall stone him, whether he be a native or a stranger. He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die.

An Eye for an Eye

(Matthew 5:38–48)
17
He that striketh and killeth a man, dying let him die.
18
He that killeth a beast, shall make it good, that is to say, shall give beast for beast.
19
He that giveth a blemish to any of his neighbours: as he hath done, so shall it be done to him:
20
Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, shall he restore. What blemish he gave, the like shall he be compelled to suffer.
21
He that striketh a beast, shall render another. He that striketh a man shall be punished.
22
Let there be equal judgment among you, whether he be a stranger, or a native that offends: because I am the Lord your God.
23
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel: and they brought forth him that had blasphemed, without the camp, and they stoned him. And the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses.
(Exodus 27:20–21)
1
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2
Command the children of Israel, that they bring to you pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.
3
Outside of the veil of the Testimony, in the Tent of Meeting, Aaron shall keep it in order from evening to morning before the LORD continually. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
4
He shall keep in order the lamps on the pure gold lamp stand before the LORD continually.

The Showbread

(Exodus 25:23–30; Exodus 37:10–16)
5
You shall take fine flour, and bake twelve cakes of it: two tenths of an ephah(a) shall be in one cake.
6
You shall set them in two rows, six on a row, on the pure gold table before the LORD.
7
You shall put pure frankincense on each row, that it may be to the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to the LORD.
8
Every Sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually. It is an everlasting covenant on the behalf of the children of Israel.
9
It shall be for Aaron and his sons. They shall eat it in a holy place; for it is most holy to him of the offerings of the LORD made by fire by a perpetual statute.”

10
The son of an Israelite woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the children of Israel; and the son of the Israelite woman and a man of Israel strove together in the camp.
11
The son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name, and cursed; and they brought him to Moses. His mother’s name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.
12

13
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
14
Bring him who cursed out of the camp; and let all who heard him lay their hands on his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
15
You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Whoever curses his God shall bear his sin.
16
He who blasphemes the LORD’s name, he shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall certainly stone him. The foreigner as well as the native-born shall be put to death when he blasphemes the Name.

An Eye for an Eye

(Matthew 5:38–48)

“‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death.
18
He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life.
19
If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done:
20
fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. It shall be done to him as he has injured someone.
21
He who kills an animal shall make it good; and he who kills a man shall be put to death.
22
You shall have one kind of law for the foreigner as well as the native-born; for I am the LORD your God.’”
23
Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and they brought him who had cursed out of the camp, and stoned him with stones. The children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
