This portion includes the Aaronic blessing that is said at the end of our call by Pastor Lucinda and said at many other services.  This was done once all had been completed by the priests that they would lift up their hands and bless the people.  'May the Adonai bless you and keep you.  May Adonai  make His face to shine upon you.  May He lift up His countenance upon you and give you His peace'.  The next chapter we have the heads of the tribes bringing offerings to the tabernacle for the dedication.  The leaders of the tribes brought these items for the dedication of the tabernacle on their appointed day.  They brought clean animals for sin, burnt, peace offerings as well as plates, bowls, incense, and meal mingled with oil.  Once all the offerings were brought to the tabernacle for 12 days for each of the leaders of tribes the grand total of what was offered for the dedication appears in --Numbers 6:84-88 84 This was the dedication of the altar, in the day when it was anointed, by the princes of Israel: twelve chargers of silver, twelve silver bowls, twelve spoons of gold:  85 Each charger of silver weighing an hundred and thirty shekels, each bowl seventy: all the silver vessels weighed two thousand and four hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:  86 The golden spoons were twelve, full of incense, weighing ten shekels apiece, after the shekel of the sanctuary: all the gold of the spoons was an hundred and twenty shekels. 87 All the oxen for the burnt offering were twelve bullocks, the rams twelve, the lambs of the first year twelve, with their meat offering: and the kids of the goats for sin offering twelve. 88 And all the oxen for the sacrifice of the peace offerings were twenty and four bullocks, the rams sixty, the he goats sixty, the lambs of the first year sixty. This was the dedication of the altar, after that it was anointed.  To hear more of this teaching click here.
