Editor's Notes
- #4: The Bible opens by introducing to its readers a holy God: the only Creator God. And because no other gods- not that they are god - has the ability to create, this God is in a class of its own.
- #5: The word holy can be used as an adjective. In Hebrew, it is qadosh.
- #6: The word holy can be used as an adjective. In Hebrew, it is qadosh.
- #7: This holy God has the authority to make things holy.
- #11: But keep away from the devoted things, so that you will not bring about your own destruction by taking any of them. Otherwise you will make the camp of Israel liable to destruction and bring trouble on it.

- #16: Tending the lamps. The Candlestand in the Tabernacle provides illumination within the windowless Tent. Tending the lamps speaks of seeking divine revelation. Twice in Biblical history was God silent. During Israel’s sojourn in Egypt for 400 years, the Israelites departed from God and started to assimilate the culture and worship of the Egyptians. Then, God was silent for another 400 years between the Old and New Testaments. During this period, Israel again departed from the Lord. Jewish history during those four centuries between the Testaments runs in six periods: the Persian, the Greek, the Egyptian, the Syrian, the Maccabean and the Roman. In the meantime, Buddhism were born. 2. Daily Offering (Tamid) 3. Praising God.
