Bread for the Tabernacle

Leviticus 24

5 "You shall take fine flour and bake twelve d loaves from it; two tenths of an ephah 1 shall be in each loaf. 6 And you shall set them in two piles, six in a pile, e on the table of pure gold 2 before the Lord. 7 And you shall put pure frankincense on each pile, that it may go with the bread as a memorial portion as a food offering to the Lord. 8 f Every Sabbath day Aaron shall arrange it before the Lord regularly; it is from the people of Israel as a covenant forever. 9 And g it shall be for Aaron and his sons, and h they shall eat it in a holy place, since it is for him a most holy portion out of the Lord's food offerings, a perpetual due."
