Moses is portrayed as a prophet and leader who receives divine instructions. This communication underscores the covenant relationship between God and Israel, where Moses acts as an intermediary. The phrase also highlights the authority of the message, as it comes directly from the LORD, the covenant name of God, indicating His eternal and unchanging nature.<p><b>Each day one leader</b><br>The instruction for each leader to present an offering daily reflects the orderly and structured nature of worship in Israel. This methodical approach ensures that each tribe is represented, promoting unity and equality among the tribes. The leaders, or princes, were heads of their respective tribes, emphasizing the importance of leadership in spiritual matters. This daily offering can be seen as a precursor to the New Testament principle of daily devotion and commitment to God.<p><b>is to present his offering</b><br>The act of presenting an offering signifies worship, dedication, and acknowledgment of God's sovereignty. Offerings in the Old Testament were a means of maintaining a right relationship with God, often involving sacrifices that pointed to the need for atonement. This practice foreshadows the ultimate offering of Jesus Christ, who presented Himself as a sacrifice once for all. The leaders' offerings symbolize the collective dedication of the people to God's service.<p><b>for the dedication of the altar</b><br>The dedication of the altar is a significant event, marking the altar as holy and set apart for God's purposes. The altar was central to Israelite worship, serving as the place where sacrifices were made. This dedication signifies the beginning of its use in the tabernacle, a precursor to the temple. The altar's dedication can be seen as a type of Christ, who is both the altar and the sacrifice, sanctifying believers through His atoning work. The dedication also reflects the importance of consecrating one's life to God, as believers are called to be living sacrifices.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD</a></b><br>The divine speaker who gives instructions to Moses.
