Eating meat
Leviticus 10:17
17Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD?(KJV)
Quite another phase of symbolic meaning was intended to be conveyed by the sacrificial meal which the priests were to make of the flesh of such sin-offerings as were not wholly burnt without the camp. Unquestionably Philo was right in suggesting, that one of the main objects of this meal was to carry to the offerer assurance of his acceptance, 'since God would never have allowed His servants to partake of it, had there not been a complete removal and forgetting of the sin' atoned for. This view entirely accords with the statement in Leviticus 10:17, where the purpose of this meal by the priests is said to be 'to bear the iniquity of the congregation.' Hence, also, the flesh of all sacrifices, either for the high-priest, as representing the priesthood, or for the whole people, had to be burnt; because those who, as God's representatives, were alone allowed to eat the sacrificial meal were themselves among the offerers of the sacrifice.

"Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant."(KJV)
"On every Sabbath he is to arrange it before YHWH continually, from the children of Yisra'ĕl - an everlasting covenant."(The ISR Scriptures)
"Every Shabbat day he shall arrange it before YHWH continually; it is an everlasting covenant for the sons of Yisrael."(Interlinear Leviticus)
422 - The two houses of Yisrael are so fresh and uppermost in YHWH's heart that He made sure the people understood that they would be continually renewed through the years. The changing of the Bread of His Presence, displayed that all Yisrael stays fresh in His presence, as they enter into His Shabbat rest. Therefore the Shabbat was appointed as the day of refreshing, as there remains therefore rest to Yisrael according to Hebrews 4:9.
"On every Sabbath he is to arrange it before YHWH continually, from the children of Yisra'ĕl - an everlasting covenant."(The ISR Scriptures)

"And if your brother becomes poor, and he falters in your area; then you shall strengthen him; that he may live with you, like a ger, or sojourner."(The Restoration Scriptures)
