The composition of the incense And the LORD said to Moses, This phrase indicates direct divine communication, emphasizing the authority and importance of the instructions that follow. Moses, as the leader and prophet, often received God's commands directly, which he then conveyed to the Israelites. This method of communication underscores Moses' unique role as a mediator between God and His people, a role that prefigures Christ as the ultimate mediator (1 Timothy 2:5). The use of "LORD" in all caps signifies the covenant name of God, Yahweh, highlighting the personal and relational aspect of God's interaction with Israel. This divine instruction is part of the larger context of the tabernacle's construction and its associated rituals, which were central to Israelite worship and community life.

Teaching Points Divine InstructionGod’s communication with Moses underscores the importance of divine guidance in worship and daily life. We should seek God’s direction through prayer and Scripture.

Symbolism of Water Water is a symbol of cleansing and renewal. In our spiritual journey, we should regularly seek renewal through the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. Obedience to God’s Commands Moses’ role in receiving and implementing God’s instructions highlights the importance of obedience. We are called to faithfully follow God’s commands in our lives.Verses 17-21. - THE BRAZEN LAVER. That the tabernacle was to have an ample supply of water had been implied in the directions given for the washing of Aaron and his sons at its outer door (Exodus 29:4). That it would contain some provision of the kind is further indicated by the command to "wash the inwards" of victims (ib, 17). We have now, in this place, the special directions given to Moses on the subject. He was to provide a brazen, or rather a bronze laver, which was to stand on a separate "foot," or base, of bronze, in the court of the tabernacle, between the entrance to the tabernacle and the "brazen altar." This was to be kept constantly supplied with water, and was to furnish whatever might be needed for the various ceremonies. Among its other uses, it was to supply liquid for the constant ablution of the priests, who were to wash both their hands and their feet on every occasion of their entering the sacred tent, and even on every occasion of their ministering at the brazen altar (ver. 20). This law was to be "a statute for ever" (ver. 21), and its violation was to be punished by death. Parallel Commentaries ...
