15
Thus the lamb and the meal offering and the oil shall be provided, morning by morning, for
1a regular burnt offering.
16
"Thus says the Lord GOD: If the prince makes a gift to any of his sons as his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons. It is their property by inheritance.
17
But if he makes a gift
2out of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his to
3the year of liberty. Then it shall revert to the prince; surely it is his inheritance--it shall belong to his sons.
18
4The prince shall not take any of the inheritance of the people,
5thrusting them out of their property. He shall give his sons their inheritance out of his own property, so that none of my people shall be
6scattered from his property."
Boiling Places for Offerings
19 Then he brought me through the entrance, which was
7at the side of the gate, to the north row of
8the holy chambers for the priests, and behold, a place was there at the extreme western end of them.
20
And he said to me, "This is the place where the priests
9shall boil the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where
10they shall bake the grain offering, in order not to bring them out into the outer court and so
11transmit holiness to the people."
21
Then he brought me out to the outer court and led me around to the four corners of the court. And behold, in each corner of the court there was another court--
22
in the four corners of the court were small courts, forty cubits long and thirty broad; the four were of the same size.
23
On the inside, around each of the four courts was a row of masonry, with hearths made at the bottom of the rows all around.
24
Then he said to me, "These are the kitchens where those who
12minister at the temple
13shall boil the sacrifices of the people."
