Leviticus 24 · Grade 2
Lamp and Loaves
Read the Story
God told His people to bring pure olive oil. The oil kept the lamps burning in His tent. The lamps never went out.
Every Sabbath the priest set twelve loaves of bread on a gold table. There was one loaf for each tribe of Israel. The bread was a reminder that God was with all His people.
God also said His name is holy. We must never use God's name in a bad way. In the New Testament, Jesus said, I am the light of the world (John 8:12). He also said, I am the bread of life (John 6:35).
