Sinai

He said: “The LORD came from Sinai and dawned upon us from Seir; He shone forth from Mount Paran and came with myriads of holy ones, with flaming fire at His right hand.

On the fifteenth day of the second month after they had left the land of Egypt, the whole congregation of Israel set out from Elim and came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai.

¹ In the third month, on the same day of the month that the Israelites had left the land of Egypt, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai.

² After they had set out from Rephidim, they entered the Wilderness of Sinai, and Israel camped there in front of the mountain.

The mountains quaked before the LORD, the One of Sinai, before the LORD, the God of Israel.

³⁷ This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering, the guilt offering, the ordination offering, and the peace offering,

³⁸ which the LORD gave Moses on Mount Sinai on the day He commanded the Israelites to present their offerings to the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai.

¹ On the first day of the second month of the second year after the Israelites had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Tent of Meeting in the Wilderness of Sinai. He said:

² “Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel by their clans and families, listing every man by name, one by one.

¹⁷ So Moses and Aaron took these men who had been designated by name,

¹⁸ and on the first day of the second month they assembled the whole congregation and recorded their ancestry by clans and families, counting one by one the names of those twenty years of age or older,

¹⁹ just as the LORD had commanded Moses. So Moses numbered them in the Wilderness of Sinai:

²⁰ From the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, according to the records of their clans and families, counting one by one the names of every male twenty years of age or older who could serve in the army,

Nadab and Abihu, however, died in the presence of the LORD when they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai. And since they had no sons, only Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests during the lifetime of their father Aaron.

¹⁴ Then the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying,

¹⁵ “Number the Levites by their families and clans. You are to count every male a month old or more.”

¹ In the first month of the second year after Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai:

² “The Israelites are to observe the Passover at its appointed time.
