You have mentioned
that Israel's job was to give out the law.
Where is scripture to support this?
Here are the scripture references...
Matthew 28:19-20
Go ye [Israel] therefore, and teach
all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of
the Holy Ghost:
Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you [the Law]: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto
the end of the world. Amen.
Matthew 5:19
Whosoever therefore shall
break one of these least commandments [the Law], and shall TEACH men so,
he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do
and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Isaiah 2:3
And many people shall go
and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of
the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in
his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the
LORD from Jerusalem.
Leviticus 10:8-11
And the LORD spake unto
Aaron [the High Priest], saying,
Do not drink wine nor
strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of
the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your
generations:
And that ye may put
difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;
And that ye may teach
the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by
the hand of Moses.
Deuteronomy 24:8
Take heed in the plague
of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do according to all that the
priests the Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall
observe to do.
2 Chronicles 17:8-9
And with them he sent
Levites, even Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and
Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tobadonijah,
Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, priests.
And they taught in
Judah, and had the book of the law of the LORD with them, and went about
throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught the people.
2 Chronicles 30:22
And Hezekiah spake
comfortably unto all the Levites [priestly tribe] that taught the good knowledge of
the LORD: and they did eat throughout the feast seven days, offering peace
offerings, and making confession to the LORD God of their fathers.
Ezra 7:10-11
For Ezra had prepared his
heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel
statutes and judgments.
Now this is the copy of
the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave unto Ezra the priest, the
scribe, even a scribe of the words of the commandments of the LORD, and of his
statutes to Israel.
Nehemiah 8:2, 8
And Ezra the PRIEST brought
the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear
with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.
So they read in the book
in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand
the reading.
Malachi 2:1-7
And now, O ye priests,
this commandment is for you.
If ye will not hear, and
if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of
hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea,
I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.
Behold, I will corrupt
your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn
feasts; and one shall take you away with it.
And ye shall know that I
have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi,
saith the LORD of hosts.
My covenant was with him
of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me,
and was afraid before my name.
The law of truth was in
his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace
and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.
For the priests lips
shall keep knowledge, and they shall seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger
of the LORD of hosts.
Exodus 19:5-6
Now therefore, if ye will
obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar
treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
And ye shall be unto me a
kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou
shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
Isaiah 66:20-21
And they shall bring all
your brethren for an offering unto the LORD out of all nations upon horses, and
in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy
mountain Jerusalem, saith the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering
in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD.
And I will also take of
them [the
ENTIRE nation]
for priests and for Levites, saith the LORD.
Hopefully this
helps...Maranatha!
