Lev 24:2Charge the children of Israel, and let them take for thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to burn a lamp continually,
Lev 24:3outside the veil in the tabernacle of witness; and Aaron and his sons shall burn it from evening until morning before the Lord continually, a perpetual statute throughout your generations.
