1. As each man's work requires (1-9)

The tabernacle and altar were finished and set up according to God's instructions. First, the tribal leaders brought six carts and twelve oxen. These were given to the three Levite clans to be used in caring for and transporting the various parts of the sanctuary. The Kohathites didn't need carts because they carried the ark on their shoulders.

2. The fellowship offering (10-89)

When the altar was dedicated, each of the twelve tribal leaders brought an offering. Each brought the same items. The bowls and plates, the grain and oil and incense and the animals were all used in making burnt offerings on the altar. The burnt offerings were called fellowship or peace offerings. The blood shed on the altar was for the forgiveness of sin, which brings peace with God and enables sinful man to have fellowship with him. These sacrifices looked forward to Jesus, the perfect sacrifice (Ro 5:1).

Application: Lord, thank you for providing a way of forgiveness and peace.
One Word: Jesus, our peace offering
