00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,800
Hello, this is Father Paul and I'm glad we're taking this journey together to read the Bible

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,600
in a year.

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,640
Today's reading is from Numbers, chapters 26 to 28.

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:13,640
Chapter 26.

5
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:18,300
And it came to pass after the plague that the Lord spoke to Moses and Eliezer the son

6
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:22,680
of Aaron the priest, saying, Take a census of all the congregation of the children of

7
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,640
Israel, from twenty years old and above, by their father's houses, all who are able to

8
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,400
go to war in Israel.

9
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,760
So Moses and Eliezer the priest spoke with them in the plains of Moab by the Jordan,

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,960
across from Jericho saying, Take a census of the people from twenty years old and above,

11
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,800
just as the Lord commanded Moses and the children of Israel who came out of the land of Egypt.

12
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,840

Moses and Aaron in the company of Korah when they contended against the Lord.

22
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,320
And the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up together with Korah when the company

23
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:28,320
died, when the fire devoured 250 men and they became a sign.

24
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:31,360

87
00:06:05,820 --> 00:06:07,780
according to the number of names.

88
00:06:07,780 --> 00:06:12,340
To a large tribe ye shall give a larger inheritance, and to a small tribe ye shall give a smaller

89
00:06:12,340 --> 00:06:13,760
inheritance.

90
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,640
Each shall be given its inheritance according to those who were numbered of them.

91
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,380
But the land shall be divided by lot.

92

They shall inherit according to the names of the tribes of their fathers.

93
00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:27,940
According to the lot their inheritance shall be divided between the larger and the smaller.

94
00:06:27,940 --> 00:06:32,340

00:06:47,860 --> 00:06:48,860

100
00:06:48,860 --> 00:06:54,420
And Kohath begot Amram, the name of Amram's wife was Joashbed the daughter of Levi, who

101
00:06:54,420 --> 00:07:00,020
was born to Levi in Egypt, and to Amram she bore Aaron and Moses and their sister Miriam.

102
00:07:00,020 --> 00:07:05,220
To Aaron were born Nadab and Abihu, Eliezer and Ethamar, and Nadab and Abihu died when

103
00:07:05,220 --> 00:07:07,520
they offered profane fire before the Lord.

104
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,220
Now those who were numbered of them were twenty-three thousand, every male from a month old and

105
00:07:12,220 --> 00:07:17,140
above, for they were not numbered among the children of Israel because there was no inheritance

106
00:07:17,140 --> 00:07:20,140
given to them among the children of Israel.

107
00:07:20,140 --> 00:07:24,500
These are those who were numbered by Moses and Eliezer the priest, who numbered the children

108
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:28,860
of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.

109
00:07:28,860 --> 00:07:33,600
But among these there was not a man of those who were numbered by Moses and Aaron the priest

110
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,140
when they numbered the children of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai.

111
00:07:37,140 --> 00:07:40,780
For the Lord had said to them, They shall surely die in the wilderness.

112
00:07:40,780 --> 00:07:46,140
So there was not left a man of them except Caleb the son of Jephunah and Joshua the son

113
00:07:46,140 --> 00:07:47,140
of Nun.

114
00:07:47,140 --> 00:07:50,620
Chapter 27 Then came the daughters of Zilophihad the son

115
00:07:50,620 --> 00:07:55,940
of Hefer the son of Gilead the son of Makil the son of Manasseh from the families of Manasseh

116
00:07:55,940 --> 00:07:57,660
the son of Joseph.

117
00:07:57,660 --> 00:08:03,820
And these were the names of his daughters Mala, Noah, Hogla, Melka, and Tirza.

118
00:08:03,820 --> 00:08:07,340
And they stood before Moses before Eliezer the priest and before the leaders and all

119
00:08:07,340 --> 00:08:11,900
the congregation by the doorway of the tabernacle of meeting saying, Our father died in the

120
00:08:11,900 --> 00:08:16,300
wilderness but he was not in the company of those who gathered together against the Lord

121
00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:17,780
in the company of Korah.

122
00:08:17,780 --> 00:08:20,820
But he died in his own sin and he had no sons.

123
00:08:20,820 --> 00:08:25,460
Why should the name of our father be removed from among his family because he had no son?

124
00:08:25,460 --> 00:08:28,240
Give us a possession among our father's brothers.

125
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,660
So Moses brought their case before the Lord.

126
00:08:30,660 --> 00:08:34,940
And the Lord spoke to Moses saying, The daughters of Zilophihad speak what is right.

127
00:08:34,940 --> 00:08:38,940
You shall surely give them a possession of inheritance among their father's brothers

128
00:08:38,940 --> 00:08:42,260
and cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.

129
00:08:42,260 --> 00:08:46,980
And you shall speak to the children of Israel saying, If a man dies and has no son, then

130
00:08:46,980 --> 00:08:49,680
you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.

131
00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:53,460
If he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.

132
00:08:53,460 --> 00:08:57,260
If he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father's brothers.

133
00:08:57,260 --> 00:09:00,900
And if his father has no brothers then you shall give his inheritance to the relative

134
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:02,840
closest to him in his family.

135
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,200
And he shall possess it.

136
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,520
And it shall be to the children of Israel a statute of judgment.

137
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:08,880
Just as the Lord commanded Moses.

138
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:14,380
Now the Lord said to Moses, Go up into this mount Abarim and see the land which I have

139
00:09:14,380 --> 00:09:16,360
given to the children of Israel.

140
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,100
And when you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people, as Aaron your

141
00:09:20,100 --> 00:09:21,640
brother was gathered.

142
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,820
For in the wilderness of Zin, during the strife of the congregation, you rebelled against

143
00:09:25,820 --> 00:09:29,360
my command, to hallow me at the waters before their eyes.

144
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,180
These are the waters of Meribah at Kaddish in the wilderness of Zin.

145
00:09:33,180 --> 00:09:37,860
Then Moses spoke to the Lord, saying, Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh,

146
00:09:37,860 --> 00:09:42,960
set a man over the congregation, who may go out before them and go in before them, who

147
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,160
may lead them out and bring them in, that the congregation of the Lord may not be like

148
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,320
sheep which have no shepherd.

149
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,640
And the Lord said to Moses, Take Joshua the son of Nun with you, a man in whom is the

150
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,960
spirit, and lay your hand on him, set him before Eliezer the priest and before all the

151
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,240
congregation and inaugurate him in their sight.

152
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,100
And you shall give some of your authority to him, that all the congregation of the children

153
00:10:05,100 --> 00:10:07,240
of Israel may be obedient.

154
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,360
He shall stand before Eliezer the priest, who shall inquire before the Lord for him

155
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,480
by the judgment of the Orim.

156
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:18,000
At his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, he and all the children

157
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,940
of Israel with him, all the congregation.

158
00:10:20,940 --> 00:10:23,140
So Moses did as the Lord commanded him.

159
00:10:23,140 --> 00:10:27,720
He took Joshua and set him before Eliezer the priest and before all the congregation.

160
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:32,440
And he laid his hands on him and inaugurated him, just as the Lord commanded by the hand

161
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,440
of Moses.

162
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,480
Chapter 28 Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Command

163
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:42,120
the children of Israel, and say to them, My offering, my food for my offerings, made by

164
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:47,040

165
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,040
time.

166
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:52,080
And you shall say to them, This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to the

167
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:58,040

And its drink offering shall be one fourth of a hinn for each lamb.

174
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,960
