Leviticus 24:6

rows. piles.

row. pile.

pure. purified or ceremonially cleansed. Compare Leviticus 24:4.

before the LORD: i.e. in the holy place. Hence called "the table of the presence" (Numbers 4:7), and the cakes called "the bread of the presence" (Exodus 25:30; Exodus 35:13; Exodus 39:36). The word "shewbread" taken from the Vulgate, and Luther, does not correctly represent the Hebrew name. The use of this word quite hides the Hebrew expression "bread of ordering" (set in order), "the sets of bread", "the table set in order", in 1 Chronicles 9:32. 1Ch 23:29. 2 Chronicles 13:11.Nehemiah 10:33. and the table in 2 Chronicles 29:18. These Hebrew expressions are based on and derived from this verse.
