1 any outsider who approaches shall be put to death.”
The Priests’ Portion8 for a pleasing odor to the Lord,
18but their flesh shall be yours, just as the breast that is elevated and as the right thigh are yours.
19v 11; 2 Chr 13.5All the holy offerings that the Israelites present to the Lord I have given to you, together with your sons and daughters, as a perpetual due; it is a covenant of salt forever before the Lord for you and your descendants as well.”
20Deut 10.9; 12.12; 14.27, 29; Josh 13.33; Ezek 44.28Then the Lord said to Aaron, “You shall have no allotment in their land, nor shall you have any share among them; I am your share and your possession among the Israelites.
21 Lev 27.30–33 “To the Levites I have given every tithe in Israel for a possession in return for the service that they perform, the service in the tent of meeting.
22Num 1.51From now on the Israelites shall no longer approach the tent of meeting, or else they will incur guilt and die.
23vv 1, 20; Num 3.7But the Levites shall perform the service of the tent of meeting, and they shall bear responsibility for their own offenses; it shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations. But among the Israelites they shall have no allotment,
24because I have given to the Levites as their portion the tithe of the Israelites, which they set apart as an offering to the Lord. Therefore I have said of them that they shall have no allotment among the Israelites.”
25The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
26Neh 10.38“You shall say to the Levites: When you receive from the Israelites the tithe that I have given you from them for your portion, you shall set apart an offering from it to the Lord, a tithe of the tithe.
27It shall be reckoned to you as your gift, the same as the grain of the threshing floor and the fullness of the winepress.
28Ex 29.27Thus you also shall set apart an offering to the Lord from all the tithes that you receive from the Israelites, and from them you shall give the Lord’s offering to the priest Aaron.
29Out of all the gifts to you, you shall set apart every offering due to the Lord; the best of all of them is the part to be consecrated.
30Say also to them: When you have set apart the best of it, then the rest shall be reckoned to the Levites as produce of the threshing floor and as produce of the winepress.
31You may eat it in any place, you and your households, for it is your payment for your service in the tent of meeting.
32Lev 19.8; 22.2, 15, 16You shall incur no guilt by reason of it, when you have offered the best of it. But you shall not profane the holy gifts of the Israelites, on pain of death.”
