The Lord gave instructions for the measured land for the temple, the sanctuary and homes for the priests, the homes of the Levites who served at the temple, and for the homes of the people of Israel. The Lord specified the portion of land and the responsibilities and functioning of the one who would rule. Peace would be kept, and the ruler would contribute and lead in the worship of God through the ordinances and feasts instituted by the Lord. The Lord gave specific instructions for offerings and sacrifices, including when and where they were to be offered.
