24:2. Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee the
finest and clearest oil of olives, to furnish the lamps continually,

covenant. And Aaron shall set them from evening until morning before the
Lord, by a perpetual service and rite in your generations.

continually.

thereof, two tenths shall be in every loaf.
24:6. And thou shalt set them six and six, one against another, upon the
most clean table before the Lord.
24:7. And thou shalt put upon them the clearest frankincense, that the
bread may be for a memorial of the oblation of the Lord.
