Carey GreenHOST
We are here to get our minds aligned with the truth of God's Word for this day.
Carey GreenHOST
We're looking at Exodus chapter 28, verse number 1 today, as we look more deeply into the instructions God gave Moses at Mount Sinai about how Israel was to order their worship.
Carey GreenHOST
And today we're going to talk about the subject of priests.
Carey GreenHOST
Have you ever wondered why were priests necessary? I mean, yes, there's the sacrifices and all that stuff, but beneath all of it, why was it even required? We're going to get into that today.
Carey GreenHOST
Would you think of someone right now, prayerfully, Lord, who would you have me share the morning mindset with? And then obediently just do that.
Carey GreenHOST
Tell them how you've experienced encouragement, change, strengthening of your faith, whatever, and share the morning mindset with them.
Carey GreenHOST
All right, before we dig into Exodus 28, friends, I invite you to pray with me.
Carey GreenHOST
Now, God, we ask you to teach us today regarding this issue of the priests of Israel.
speaker_1NARRATOR
Just as the priests ministered before God in the sanctuary, and the high priest entered each year into the most holy place on the day of atonement, Jesus, our great high priest, has entered into the presence of God the Father on our behalf, bearing our names just as the high priest of old bore the names of the sons of Israel on the breastplate of judgment over his heart.

In Exodus 28, verse 29.
speaker_1NARRATOR
We need more than a historical Jesus.
speaker_1NARRATOR
We need a living, present, and interceding Jesus.

Stuart KeirUNKNOWN
That was his job.
Stuart KeirUNKNOWN
He was chosen by God to build a bridge between the people of Israel and between their God.
Stuart KeirUNKNOWN
You see that in verse 1 of Exodus 28 where God says to Moses, Bring near to you Aaron your brother and his sons with him from among the people of Israel to serve me as priests.
Stuart KeirUNKNOWN
These men were ordinary men.
Stuart KeirUNKNOWN
But they were ordinary men called by God and set apart for God for the task of representing God to the people.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
The sacrificial and priestly system, particularly as we read in Leviticus, addressed a very, very basic question.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
How could sinful human beings approach God, holy and righteous, and obtain forgiveness? And so God established various elements i'll highlight a few yeah of particularly noteworthiness one was a sanctuary which was a designated place where god's presence was manifested among israel and we see that in exodus 25 then there were a number of sacrifices there were offerings associated with basically atonement and forgiveness and we see that in leviticus particularly around the first few chapters of leviticus and then we had priesthood priests appointed to represent the people before god we could easily refer to exodus 28 verse 1 where god appointed the priesthood through The Levitical priesthood through Aaron.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
And then there was a very important annual day, a holy day, the Day of Atonement, which is an annual occasion when the high priest entered the most holy place with sacrificial blood to make an atonement.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
And we read that every year during the Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16.

Jorge de CamposGUEST
You see, the priesthood was not self-appointed.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
The priesthood was not self-appointed, was appointed by God.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
Look at Exodus 28, verse 1.
Jorge de CamposGUEST
I made reference to that a little earlier, but I did not read it.
Steve SchwetzHOST
I'm Steve Schwetz, your host on this five-year journey through God's whole word, and I'm so glad that you've hopped aboard the Bible bus as we take a look at some of the most beautiful pictures in the Bible.
Steve SchwetzHOST
Our text? Well, that's Exodus 28.
Steve SchwetzHOST
So grab your Bible and turn there now.
Steve SchwetzHOST
And while you do that, here's Dr. McGee's introduction on what we're going to hear about the tabernacle.
Steve SchwetzHOST
Heavenly Father, would you use the teaching of your word to reach those who live in places that we may never go? Let it bring light into a dark world, and then help us to understand how to bring glory to you in all that we do every day.
Steve SchwetzHOST
In Jesus' name, amen.
Steve SchwetzHOST
Open to Exodus 28, as we go through the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

Now, as we come today to the 28th chapter of the book of Exodus, it seems like we have a departure here.
MarcoHOST
Yes, Lord, you are right.
MarcoHOST
Anyway, so last week we looked at Exodus 28.
MarcoHOST
Um, we looked at the garments that God gave Mi- uh, well, the commandments that God gave to Moses, to Aaron and his sons.
MarcoHOST
And as awesome as those clothes were, we saw it.
TomHOST
And the high priest would go into the presence of God, wearing the names of God's people over his heart and on his chest.
TomHOST
We can see the text in Exodus 28.
TomHOST
There are to be 12 stones, one for each of the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the 12 tribes.
TomHOST
Whenever Aaron enters the holy place, he will bear the names of the sons of Israel over his heart.
