The Oil for the Lamp in the Holy Place

(Leviticus 24.1-4)

The Lord said to Moses:

²⁰ Command the people of Israel to supply you with the purest olive oil. Do this so the lamp will keep burning ²¹ in front of the curtain that separates the holy place from the most holy place, where the sacred chest is kept. Aaron and his sons are responsible for keeping the lamp burning every night in the sacred tent. The Israelites must always obey this command.
