Ki Tisa "When You Take"
Ex 30:11 - 34:35 , 1 Kings 18: 1-39
Reader 1
Exo 30:11 And YHWH spoke unto Moshe, saying,
Exo 30:12 When you take the sum of the children of Yisra'el after their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto YHWH, when you number them; that there be no plague among them, when thou number them.
Exo 30:13 This they shall give, every one that passes among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of YHWH.
Exo 30:14 Every one that passes among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto YHWH.
Exo 30:15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto YHWH, to make an atonement for your souls.
Exo 30:16 And you shall take the atonement money of the children of Yisra'el, and shall appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the children of Yisra'el before YHWH, to make an atonement for your souls.
Exo 30:17 And YHWH spake unto Moshe, saying,
Exo 30:18 You shall also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to wash withal: and you shall put it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and you shall put water therein.
Exo 30:19 For Aharon and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet thereat:
Exo 30:20 When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering made by fire unto YHWH:
Exo 30:21 So they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they die not: and it shall be a statute for ever to them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.
Exo 30:22 Moreover YHWH spake unto Moshe, saying,
Exo 30:23 Take you also unto you principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,
Exo 30:24 And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:
Exo 30:25 And you shall make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil.
Exo 30:26 And you shall anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony,
Exo 30:27 And the table and all his vessels, and the menorah and his vessels, and the altar of incense,
Exo 30:28 And the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and his foot.
Exo 30:29 And you shall sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever touches them shall be holy.
Exo 30:30 And you shall anoint Aharon and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.
Exo 30:31 And you shall speak unto the children of Yisra'el, saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil unto me throughout your generations.
Exo 30:32 Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall you make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.
Exo 30:33 Whosoever compounds any like it, or whosoever puts any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.
Exo 30:34 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Take unto you sweet spices, gum resin, and onycha, and galbanum; these sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be a like weight:
Exo 30:35 And you shall make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:
Exo 30:36 And you shall beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with you: it shall be unto you most holy.
Exo 30:37 And as for the perfume which you shall make, you shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto you holy for YHWH.
Exo 30:38 Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.
Exo 31:1 And YHWH spake unto Moshe, saying,
Exo 31:2 See, I have called by name Betzal'el the son of Uri, the son of Chur, of the tribe of Yahudah:
Exo 31:3 And I have filled him with the spirit of Elohim, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
Exo 31:4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
Exo 31:5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
Exo 31:6 And I, behold, I have given with him Oholi'av, the son of Achisamakh, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you;
Exo 31:7 The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,
Exo 31:8 And the table and his furniture, and the pure menorah with all his furniture, and the altar of incense,
Exo 31:9 And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot,
Exo 31:10 And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aharon the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,
Exo 31:11 And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you shall they do.
Exo 31:12 And YHWH spake unto Moshe, saying,
Exo 31:13 Speak you also unto the children of Yisra'el, saying, truly my sabbaths you shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am YHWH that does sanctify you.
Exo 31:14 You shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defiles it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Exo 31:15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to YHWH: whosoever does any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
Exo 31:16 Wherefore the children of Yisra'el shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
Exo 31:17 It is a sign between me and the children of Yisra'el for ever: for in six days YHWH made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
Reader 2
Exo 31:18 And he gave unto Moshe, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of Elohim.
Exo 32:1 And when the people saw that Moshe delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aharon, and said unto him, Up, make us elohim, which shall go before us; for as for this Moshe, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
Exo 32:2 And Aharon said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
Exo 32:3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aharon.
Exo 32:4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be your elohim, O Yisra'el, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
Exo 32:5 And when Aharon saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aharon made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to YHWH.
Exo 32:6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
Exo 32:7 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Go, get you down; for your people, which you brought out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
Exo 32:8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be your elohim, O Yisra'el, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
Exo 32:9 And YHWH said unto Moshe, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
Exo 32:10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of you a great nation.
Exo 32:11 And Moshe besought YHWH his Elohim, and said, YHWH, why does your wrath wax hot against your people, which you have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
Exo 32:12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from your fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against your people.
Exo 32:13 Remember Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yisra'el, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.
Exo 32:14 And YHWH repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
Exo 32:15 And Moshe turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.
Exo 32:16 And the tables were the work of Elohim, and the writing was the writing of Elohim, graven upon the tables.
Exo 32:17 And when Yahushua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moshe, There is a noise of war in the camp.
Exo 32:18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
Exo 32:19 And it came to pass, as soon as he came near unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moshe's anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mount.
Exo 32:20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Yisra'el drink of it.
Exo 32:21 And Moshe said unto Aharon, What did this people unto you, that you hast brought so great a sin upon them?
Exo 32:22 And Aharon said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: you know the people, that they are set on mischief.
Exo 32:23 For they said unto me, Make us elohim, which shall go before us: for as for this Moshe, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
Exo 32:24 And I said unto them, Whosoever has any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
Exo 32:25 And when Moshe saw that the people were naked; (for Aharon had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
Exo 32:26 Then Moshe stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on YHWH'S side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
Exo 32:27 And he said unto them, Thus saith YHWH Elohim of Yisra'el, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.
Exo 32:28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moshe: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
Exo 32:29 For Moshe had said, Consecrate yourselves to day to YHWH, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
Exo 32:30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moshe said unto the people, You have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto YHWH; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin.
Exo 32:31 And Moshe returned unto YHWH, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them elohim of gold.
Exo 32:32 Yet now, if you will forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray you, out of your book which you have written.
Exo 32:33 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Whosoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
Exo 32:34 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto you: behold, my Angel shall go before you: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.
Exo 32:35 And YHWH plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aharon made.
Exo 33:1 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Depart, and go up from here, you and the people which you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Avraham, to Yitzchak, and to Ya'akov, saying, Unto your seed will I give it:
Exo 33:2 And I will send an angel before you; and I will drive out the Kena'ani, the Amori, and the Chittite, and the Perizzi, the Chivi, and the Yevusi:
Exo 33:3 Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of you; for you art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume you in the way.
Exo 33:4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments.
Exo 33:5 For YHWH had said unto Moshe, Say unto the children of Yisra'el, You are a stiffnecked people: I will come up into the midst of you in a moment, and consume you: therefore now put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what to do unto you.
Exo 33:6 And the children of Yisra'el stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Chorev.
Exo 33:7 And Moshe took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought YHWH went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was outside the camp.
Exo 33:8 And it came to pass, when Moshe went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moshe, until he was gone into the tabernacle.
Exo 33:9 And it came to pass, as Moshe entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and YHWH talked with Moshe.
Exo 33:10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.
Exo 33:11 And YHWH spake unto Moshe person to person, as a man speaks unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Yahushua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.
Reader 3
Exo 33:12 And Moshe said unto YHWH, See, you say unto me, Bring up this people: and you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, I know you by name, and you have also found favor in my sight.
Exo 33:13 Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found favor in your sight, shew me now your way, that I may know you, that I may find favor in your sight: and consider that this nation is your people.
Exo 33:14 And he said, My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.
Exo 33:15 And he said unto him, If your presence go not with me, carry us not up from here.
Exo 33:16 For how shall it be known here that I and your people have found favor in your sight? is it not in that you go with us? so shall we be separated, I and your people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.
Reader 4
Exo 33:17 And YHWH said unto Moshe, I will do this thing also that you have spoken: for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name.
Exo 33:18 And he said, I beseech you, shew me your glory.
Exo 33:19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of YHWH before you; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.
Exo 33:20 And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
Exo 33:21 And YHWH said, Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand upon a rock:
Exo 33:22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a clift of the rock, and will cover you with my hand while I pass by:
Exo 33:23 And I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
Reader 5
Exo 34:1 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Hew you two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which you broke.
Exo 34:2 And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present yourself there to me in the top of the mount.
Exo 34:3 And no man shall come up with you, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.
Exo 34:4 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moshe rose up early in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as YHWH had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.
Exo 34:5 And YHWH descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of YHWH.
Exo 34:6 And YHWH passed by before him, and proclaimed, YHWH, YHWH Elohim, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,
Exo 34:7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving lawlessness and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the lawlessness of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.
Exo 34:8 And Moshe made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.
Exo 34:9 And he said, If now I have found favor in your sight, O Adonai, let my Adonai, I pray you, go among us; for it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our lawlessness and our sin, and take us for your inheritance.
Reader 6
Exo 34:10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which you are shall see the work of YHWH: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with you.
Exo 34:11 Observe you that which I command you this day: behold, I drive out before you the Amori, and the Kena'ani, and the Chitti, and the Perizzi, and the Chivi, and the Yevusi.
Exo 34:12 Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you go, lest it be for a snare in the midst of you:
Exo 34:13 But you shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
Exo 34:14 For you shall worship no other el: for YHWH, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous El:
Exo 34:15 Lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their elohim, and do sacrifice unto their elohim, and call you, and you eat of his sacrifice;
Exo 34:16 And you take of their daughters unto your sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their elohim, and make your sons go a whoring after their elohim.
Exo 34:17 You shall make you no molten elohim.
Exo 34:18 The feast of unleavened bread shall you keep. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, in the time of the month Aviv: for in the month Aviv you came out from Egypt.
Exo 34:19 All that openeth the womb is mine; and every firstling among your cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.
Exo 34:20 But the firstling of an donkey you shall redeem with a lamb: and if you redeem him not, then shall you break his neck. All the firstborn of your sons you shall redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
Exo 34:21 Six days you shall work, but on the seventh day you shall rest: in earing time and in harvest you shall rest.
Exo 34:22 And you shall observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.
Exo 34:23 Thrice in the year shall all your men children appear before Adon YHWH, the Elohim of Yisra'el.
Exo 34:24 For I will cast out the nations before you, and enlarge your borders: neither shall any man desire your land, when you shall go up to appear before YHWH your Elohim thrice in the year.
Exo 34:25 You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
Exo 34:26 The first of the firstfruits of your land you shall bring unto the house of YHWH your Elohim. You shall not boil a kid in his mother's milk.
Reader 7
Exo 34:27 And YHWH said unto Moshe, Write you these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Yisra'el.
Exo 34:28 And he was there with YHWH forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
Exo 34:29 And it came to pass, when Moshe came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moshe's hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moshe knew not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.
Exo 34:30 And when Aharon and all the children of Yisra'el saw Moshe, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.
Exo 34:31 And Moshe called unto them; and Aharon and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moshe talked with them.
Exo 34:32 And afterward all the children of Yisra'el came near: and he gave them in commandment all that YHWH had spoken with him in mount Sinai.
Exo 34:33 And till Moshe had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face.
Exo 34:34 But when Moshe went in before YHWH to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And he came out, and spake unto the children of Yisra'el that which he was commanded.
Exo 34:35 And the children of Yisra'el saw the face of Moshe, that the skin of Moshes' face shone: and Moshe put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
Haftarah
1Ki 18:1 And it came to pass after many days, that the word of YHWH came to EliYahu in the third year, saying, Go, show yourself unto Ach'av; and I will send rain upon the earth.
1Ki 18:2 And EliYahu went to show himself unto Ach'av. And there was a sore famine in Shomron.
1Ki 18:3 And Ach'av called OvadYahu, which was the governor of his house. (Now OvadYahu feared YHWH greatly:
1Ki 18:4 For it was so, when Izevel cut off the prophets of YHWH, that OvadYahu took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)
1Ki 18:5 And Ach'av said unto OvadYahu, Go into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.
1Ki 18:6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ach'av went one way by himself, and OvadYahu went another way by himself.
1Ki 18:7 And as OvadYahu was in the way, behold, EliYahu met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Are you that my lord EliYahu?
1Ki 18:8 And he answered him, I am: go, tell your lord, Behold, EliYahu is here.
1Ki 18:9 And he said, What have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ach'av, to slay me?
1Ki 18:10 As YHWH thy Elohim lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found you not.
1Ki 18:11 And now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, EliYahu is here.
1Ki 18:12 And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from you, that the Spirit of YHWH shall carry you where I know not; and so when I come and tell Ach'av, and he cannot find you, he shall slay me: but I your servant fear YHWH from my youth.
1Ki 18:13 Was it not told my lord what I did when Izebel slew the prophets of YHWH, how I hid an hundred men of YHWH'S prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
1Ki 18:14 And now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, EliYahu is here: and he shall slay me.
1Ki 18:15 And EliYahu said, As YHWH Tsebeoth lives, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day.
1Ki 18:16 So OvadYahu went to meet Ach'av, and told him: and Ach'av went to meet EliYahu.
1Ki 18:17 And it came to pass, when Ach'av saw EliYahu, that Ach'av said unto him, Are you he that troubles Yisra'el?
1Ki 18:18 And he answered, I have not troubled Yisra'el; but you, and your father's house, in that you have forsaken the commandments of YHWH, and you have followed Ba'alim.
1Ki 18:19 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Yisra'el unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Ba'al four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Izevel's table.
1Ki 18:20 So Ach'av sent unto all the children of Yisra'el, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel.
1Ki 18:21 And EliYahu came unto all the people, and said, How long halt you between two opinions? if YHWH be Elohim, follow him: but if Ba'al, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
1Ki 18:22 Then said EliYahu unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of YHWH; but Ba'al's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
1Ki 18:23 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:
1Ki 18:24 And call you on the name of your elohim, and I will call on the name of YHWH: and the Elohim that answers by fire, let him be Elohim. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.
1Ki 18:25 And EliYahu said unto the prophets of Ba'al, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for you are many; and call on the name of your elohim, but put no fire under.
1Ki 18:26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Ba'al from morning even until noon, saying, O Ba'al, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
1Ki 18:27 And it came to pass at noon, that EliYahu mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a el; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleeps, and must be awaked.
1Ki 18:28 And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.
1Ki 18:29 And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.
1Ki 18:30 And EliYahu said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of YHWH that was broken down.
1Ki 18:31 And EliYahu took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Ya'akov, unto whom the word of YHWH came, saying, Yisra'el shall be your name:
1Ki 18:32 And with the stones he built an altar in the name of YHWH: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
1Ki 18:33 And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.
1Ki 18:34 And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.
1Ki 18:35 And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.
1Ki 18:36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that EliYahu the prophet came near, and said, YHWH Elohim of Avraham, Yitzchak, and of Yisra'el, let it be known this day that you art Elohim in Yisra'el, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
1Ki 18:37 Hear me, O YHWH, hear me, that this people may know that you are YHWH Elohim, and that you have turned their heart back again.
1Ki 18:38 Then the fire of YHWH fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
1Ki 18:39 And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, YHWH, He is the Elohim; YHWH, He is the Elohim.
A disciple should diligently search for the truth and humbly deny and reconsider it's possession.
