Leviticus 2:1-17 Anyone offering a meal offering to God, it will be fine flour ---with oil poured upon it, and put frankincense on it. And bring it to Aaron's sons the priests: and take a handful of the flour, and of the oil, with frankincense. The priest shall burn the memorial upon the altar --- an offering made by fire to God. The remnant of this meat offering shall be for Aaron's and his sons'. And if one brings an oblation of a meal offering baken in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil. If the oblation is meal offering baked in a pan, it shall be of fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil --- cut into pieces, and pour oil on it. If the oblation be fried meal offering in the fryingpan, it shall be made with fine flour and oil. When it is presented to the priest, he shall bring it to the altar, and shall burn it upon the altar: as an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour to God. The remainder shall be for Aaron's and his sons'. No meal offering, brought to the Lord, shall be made with leaven. No burning of leaven or any honey, in any offering for the Lord made by fire. The oblation of the firstfruits, shall be offered to the Lord: but they shall not be burnt on the altar. Every oblation of meat offering shalt be season with plenty of salt for God. And a meal offering of thy firstfruits unto the Lord, shalt be offered fromthe green ears of corn dried by the fire, even corn beaten out of full ears. And they shalt put oil upon it, and frankincense on it. And the priest shall burn a portion of it as an offering made by fire to GOD.


Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

1 `And when a person bringeth near an offering, a present to Jehovah, of flour is his offering, and he hath poured on it oil, and hath put on it frankincense;

2 and he hath brought it in unto the sons of Aaron, the priests, and he hath taken from thence the fulness of his hand of its flour and of its oil, besides all its frankincense, and the priest hath made perfume with its memorial on the altar, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah;

3 and the remnant of the present [is] for Aaron and for his sons, most holy, of the fire-offerings of Jehovah.

4 `And when thou bringest near an offering, a present baked in an oven, [it is of] unleavened cakes of flour mixed with oil, or thin unleavened cakes anointed with oil.

5 `And if thine offering [is] a present [made] on the girdel, it is of flour, mixed with oil, unleavened;

6 divide thou it into parts, and thou hast poured on it oil; it [is] a present.

7 `And if thine offering [is] a present [made] on the frying-pan, of flour with oil it is made,

8 and thou hast brought in the present which is made of these to Jehovah, and [one] hath brought it near unto the priest, and he hath brought it nigh unto the altar,

9 and the priest hath lifted up from the present its memorial, and hath made perfume on the altar, a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah;

10 and the remnant of the present [is] for Aaron and for his sons, most holy, of the fire-offerings of Jehovah.

11 No present which ye bring near to Jehovah is made fermented, for with any leaven or any honey ye perfume no fire-offering to Jehovah.

12 `An offering of first-[fruits] -- ye bring them near to Jehovah, but on the altar they go not up, for sweet fragrance.

13 And every offering -- thy present -- with salt thou dost season, and thou dost not let the salt of the covenant of thy God cease from thy present; with all thine offerings thou dost bring near salt.

14 `And if thou bring near a present of first-ripe [fruits] to Jehovah, -- of green ears, roasted with fire, beaten out [corn] of a fruitful field thou dost bring near the present of thy first-ripe [fruits],

15 and thou hast put on it oil, and laid on it frankincense, it [is] a present;

16 and the priest hath made perfume with its memorial from its beaten out [corn], and from its oil, besides all its frankincense -- a fire-offering to Jehovah.

3 and the remnant of the present [is] for Aaron and for his sons,

There is a Hungarian saying:
'Minden szentnek maga felé hajlik a keze.'
The hand of each saint inclines towards himself.

Please don't mix the categories.
Scientists and teachers - at least the ones I know, (and I used to be myself a teacher...) - pay for their lunch.
As the shepherds, farmers, fishermen, fishmongers, grocers, piemen, icemen, longshoremen, ginger-bread makers, candle-dippers alike.
And the stone-cutters and ballet-dancers.

Politicians, and in our case prophets (and their families) don't.

Exodus 9
1 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, so that they may worship me.” 2 If you refuse to let them go and continue to hold them back, 3 the hand of the Lord will bring a terrible plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys and camels and on your cattle, sheep and goats. 4 But the Lord will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and that of Egypt, so that no animal belonging to the Israelites will die.’”5 The Lord set a time and said, “Tomorrow the Lord will do this in the land.” 6 And the next day the Lord did it: All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the Israelites died. 7 . Yet his heart was unyielding and he Pharaoh investigated and found that not even one of the animals of the Israelites had diedwould not let the people go.

Why change what already is there for the reading?

I'm so pleased you have included these quotes from Exodus 9. As you have so aptly noted in verse 3 it says the lord will bring a terrible plague onthe livestock in the field, on the horses, donkeys and camels and cattle, sheep and goats.

And that all the livestock of the Egyptians died.

That was my point entirely. All the livestock died. I asked if you wanted to add to that verse 6 all the livestock of the Egyptians (in the field) died. But no. you are happy with verse six saying,"All the livestock died"

I'm glad that is cleared up.

Uh, but one question remains.

Exodus 9, v. 18 says
18 Therefore, at this time tomorrow I will send the worst hailstorm that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded till now. 19 Give an order now to bring your livestock and everything you have in the field to a place of shelter, because the hail will fall on every person and animal that has not been brought in and is still out in the field, and they will die.’”

20 Those officials of Pharaoh who feared the word of the Lord hurried to bring their slaves and their livestock inside. 21 But those who ignored the word of the Lord left their slaves and livestock in the field.

22 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that hail will fall all over Egypt—on people and animals and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt.” 23 When Moses stretched out his staff toward the sky, the Lord sent thunder and hail, and lightning flashed down to the ground. So the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt; 24 hail fell and lightning flashed back and forth. It was the worst storm in all the land of Egypt since it had become a nation. 25 Throughout Egypt hail struck everything in the fields—both people and animals; it beat down everything growing in the fields and stripped every tree. 26 The only place it did not hail was the land of Goshen, where the Israelites were.

God tells them to bring their livestock in from the field. What livestock? Weren't they all killed?

Everyone has a job to do. But not everyone appreciates the work others perform. And some could certainly learn to perform their task better...

Leviticus 3:1-17 If a male or female animal with no defects from the herd, flock or goat maybe presented as a peace offering to the Lord. They are to lay a hand on the animal’s head, and kill it at the entrance of the Tabernacle. Aaron’s sons, the priests, will splatter its blood against all sides of the altar. The priest must present part of this peace offering as a special gift to the Lord. This includes all the fat around the internal organs, the two kidneys and the fat around them near the loins, and the long lobe of the liver. These must be removed with the kidneys. Aaron’s sons will burn them on top of the burnt offering on the wood burning on the altar, as a special gift to the Lord. The Hebrewsa must never eat any fat or blood. This is a permanent law for them, and it must be observed from generation to generation, wherever they live.

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

1 `And if his offering [is] a sacrifice of peace-offerings, if out of the herd he is bringing near, whether male or female, a perfect one he doth bring near before Jehovah,

2 and he hath laid his hand on the head of his offering, and hath slaughtered it at the opening of the tent of meeting, and sons of Aaron, the priests, have sprinkled the blood on the altar round about.

3 `And he hath brought near from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings a fire-offering to Jehovah, the fat which is covering the inwards, and all the fat which [is] on the inwards,

4 and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver, (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside),

5 and sons of Aaron have made it a perfume on the altar, on the burnt-offering which [is] on the wood, which [is] on the fire -- a fire-offering of sweet fragrance to Jehovah.

6 `And if his offering [is] out of the flock for a sacrifice of peace-offerings to Jehovah, male or female, a perfect one he doth bring near;

7 if a sheep he is bringing near [for] his offering, then he hath brought it near before Jehovah,

8 and hath laid his hand on the head of his offering, and hath slaughtered it before the tent of meeting, and sons of Aaron have sprinkled its blood on the altar round about.

9 `And he hath brought near from the sacrifice of the peace-offerings a fire-offering to Jehovah, its fat, the whole fat tail (over-against the bone he doth turn it aside), and the fat which is covering the inwards, and all the fat which [is] on the inwards,

10 and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] on them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver, (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside),

11 and the priest hath made it a perfume on the altar -- bread of a fire-offering to Jehovah.

12 `And if his offering [is] a goat, then he hath brought it near before Jehovah,

13 and hath laid his hand on its head, and hath slaughtered it before the tent of meeting, and sons of Aaron have sprinkled its blood on the altar round about;

14 and he hath brought near from it his offering, a fire-offering to Jehovah, the fat which is covering the inwards, and all the fat which [is] on the inwards,

15 and the two kidneys, and the fat which [is] upon them, which [is] on the flanks, and the redundance above the liver, (beside the kidneys he doth turn it aside),

16 and the priest hath made them a perfume on the altar -- bread of a fire-offering, for sweet fragrance; all the fat [is] Jehovah's.

17 `A statute age-during to your generations in all your dwellings: any fat or any blood ye do not eat.'

Animal sacrifice, human sacrifice, shedding of blood, transferring of sins and payment to erase the past, atonement it is all a con, and has been since the fall of man...

You go to a court of law and tell the judge you'll take the place of someone on death row.

If it is all symbolic then why was it even half real? like watered down wine or impure gold. its a con.

Speaking of wine and drinking his blood in Jesus remembrance, how come the symbolism ends there? it clearly says not to eat/drink the blood.

And one doesn't, actually. Jesus was speaking metaphorically.
