You must remove the old yeast of sin so that you will be entirely pure. Then you will be like a new batch of dough without any yeast, as indeed I know you actually are. For our Passover Festival is ready, now that Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

Let us celebrate our Passover, then, not with bread having the old yeast of sin and wickedness, but with the bread that has no yeast, the bread of purity and truth.

Surely you know that the men who work in the Temple get their food from the Temple and that those who offer the sacrifices on the altar get a share of the sacrifices.

No! What I am saying is that what is sacrificed on pagan altars is offered to demons, not to God. And I do not want you to be partners with demons.

They shall do the work required for the Tent of my presence and perform duties for the priests and for the whole community.

They shall take charge of all the equipment of the Tent and perform the duties for the rest of the Israelites.

"Accept these gifts for use in the work to be done for the Tent; give them to the Levites according to the work they have to do."
