The Bread Offering. “You shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes, two-tenths of an ephah in each cake. You shall set them in two rows, six cakes to a row, on the pure golden table before the Lord. You shall sprinkle pure frankincense[a] upon each row, on the bread, so that it might be a memorial offering made by fire to the Lord. Every Sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord forever. It is an everlasting covenant for the children of Israel. It belongs to Aaron and his sons who are to eat it in a holy place, for it is a most holy part of his portion of the offerings made by fire to the Lord. This is a statute forever.”
