Torrey, [ca. 1880]\nOverview\nLev 24:1, The oil for the lamps; Lev 24:5, The shew-bread; Lev 24:10, Shelomith's son blasphemeth; Lev 24:13, The law of blasphemy; Lev 24:17, Of murder; Lev 24:18, Of damage; Lev 24:23, The blasphemer is stoned.\nthat they: Exo 27:20, Exo 27:21, Exo 39:37, Exo 40:24; Num 8:2-4; Sa1 3:3, Sa1 3:4\nthe lamps: Ch2 13:11; Psa 119:105, Psa 119:130; Pro 6:23; Isa 8:20, Isa 11:2; Mat 4:16, Mat 5:16; Mat 25:1-8; Luk 1:79, Luk 12:35; Joh 1:4, Joh 1:9, Joh 5:35, Joh 8:12; Act 26:18; Co2 4:6; Eph 1:17, Eph 1:18, Eph 5:8-14; Phi 2:15, Phi 2:16\nburn continually: Heb. ascend\nthe pure: Exo 25:31-39, Exo 31:8, Exo 37:17-24, Exo 39:37; Num 3:31, Num 4:9; Kg1 7:49; Ch1 28:15; Jer 52:19; Zac 4:2, Zac 4:3, Zac 4:11-14; Heb 9:2; Rev 1:20, Rev 2:1, Rev 2:5; Rev 11:4\nThe loaves of bread which the officiating priest placed every sabbath day upon the golden table in the Sanctum, before the Lord, were twelve in number, representing the twelve tribes of Israel. The loaves must have been large, since two tenth deals (about six pints) of flour were used for each, Lev 24:3, Lev 24:6, Lev 24:7. They were served up hot on the sabbath day in the Sanctum, when the stale ones, which had been exposed the whole week, were taken away, and none but the priests were allowed to eat them. In an extraordinary extremity, David and his men partook of the shew-bread (see note on Sa1 21:6), the urgent necessity alone justifying the act. The Hebrew signifies bread of faces, or, of the face.\nExo 25:30, Exo 40:23; Kg1 18:31; Sa1 21:4, Sa1 21:5; Mat 12:4; Act 26:7; Jam 1:1\nin two rows: Co1 14:40\npure: Exo 25:23, Exo 25:24, Exo 37:10-16, Exo 39:36, Exo 40:22, Exo 40:23; Kg1 7:48; Ch2 4:19, Ch2 13:11; Heb 9:2\npure: Lev 2:2; Eph 1:6; Heb 7:25; Rev 8:3, Rev 8:4\na memorial: Gen 9:16; Exo 12:14, Exo 13:9, Exo 17:14; Act 10:4, Act 10:31; Co1 11:23-25\nNum 4:7; Ch1 9:32, Ch1 23:29; Ch2 2:4; Neh 10:33; Mat 12:3-5\nAaron's: Lev 8:31; Sa1 21:6; Mal 1:12; Mat 12:4; Mar 2:26; Luk 6:4\nthey shall: Lev 6:16, Lev 8:3, Lev 8:31, Lev 10:17, Lev 21:22; Exo 29:32, Exo 29:33\nblasphemed: Lev 24:15, Lev 24:16; Exo 20:7; Sa2 12:14; Kg1 21:10, Kg1 21:13; Kg2 18:30, Kg2 18:35, Kg2 18:37; Kg2 19:1-3, Kg2 19:6, Kg2 19:10, Kg2 19:22; Ch2 32:14-17; Psa 74:18, Psa 74:22; Mat 26:65; Act 6:11-13; Rom 2:24; Ti1 1:13; Rev 16:11, Rev 16:21\nthe name: Houbigant and others think that the name which this man blasphemed was the name of the god of his native land. But that hashshem THE NAME, denotes Jehovah, appears from its being used in the latter part of Lev 24:16, as equivalent to \"the name of Jehovah,\" in the former part. The Jews also frequently use hashshem for Jehovah.\ncursed: Job 1:5, Job 1:11, Job 1:22, Job 2:5, Job 2:9, Job 2:10; Isa 8:21\nbrought him: Exo 18:22, Exo 18:26; Num 15:33-35\nthat the mind of the Lord might be showed them: Heb. to expound unto them according to the mouth of the Lord, Exo 18:15, Exo 18:16, Exo 18:23; Num 27:5, Num 36:5, Num 36:6\nwithout: Lev 13:46; Num 5:2-4, Num 15:35\nlet all the: Lev 20:2, Lev 20:27; Num 15:35, Num 15:36; Deu 13:10, Deu 21:21, Deu 22:21; Jos 7:25; Joh 8:59; Joh 10:31-33; Act 7:58, Act 7:59\nbear his sin: Lev 5:1, Lev 20:16, Lev 20:17; Num 9:13\nblasphemeth: As the word nakav not only signifies to curse, or blaspheme, but also to express, or distinguish by name (Num 1:17. Ch1 12:31. Isa 62:2), hence the Jews, at a very early period, understood this law as prohibiting them from uttering the name Jehovah, on any other than sacred occasions. The Septuagint, which was made at least 250 years before Christ, renders it \u039f\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03b1\u03b6\u03c9\u03bd \u03b4\u03b5 \u03c4\u03bf \u03bf\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03b1 \u039a\u03c5\u03c1\u03b9\u03bf\u03c5, \u03b8\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03c9 \u03b8\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c3\u03b8\u03c9, \"Whosoever nameth the name of the Lord, let him die;\" from which we see that the Jews at this time were accustomed to pronounce adonay, or Lord, instead of Jehovah; for in place of it the Septuagint always put \u03bf \u039a\u03c5\u03c1\u03b9\u03bf\u03c2.
