B’ha’alotkha “When you set up” Pt. 1: Numbers 8:1-14
The menorah is set up so the lights shine forwards and out, into the Tent, illuminating the area where Israel meets with Yahveh. Likewise, the Levites are offered up as a wave offering, given to Yahveh but kept among the people to bring them light.
We who follow Messiah Yeshua are to be the same, lights shining into the world, totally dedicated to Yahveh but in the world to bring His light, in but not of the world. (John 17:13-19)
