But you are to seek the place the Lord your God will choose from among all your tribes to put his Name there for his dwelling. To that place you must go;

But you shall seek the place that the Lord your God will choose out of all your tribes to put his name and make his habitation there. There you shall go,

Rather, you must seek the Lord your God at the place of worship he himself will choose from among all the tribes— the place where his name will be honored.

Instead, turn to the place the LORD your God chooses from all your tribes to put his name for his dwelling and go there.

But you shall seek the Lord at the place which the Lord your God will choose from all your tribes, to establish His name there for His dwelling, and you shall come there.

“ But you shall seek the place where the Lord your God chooses, out of all your tribes, to put His name for His dwelling place; and there you shall go.

But unto the place which Jehovah your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come;

Instead, you must turn to the place Yahweh your God chooses from all your tribes to put His name for His dwelling and go there.

But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there,[ even] unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come:

But you must seek only the place he chooses from all your tribes to establish his name as his place of residence, and you must go there.

But to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, you shall seek his habitation, and you shall come there.

The Lord your God will choose a special place. He will put his Name there. That’s where you must bring everything I command you to bring. That includes your burnt offerings and sacrifices. It includes your special gifts and a tenth of everything you produce. It also includes all the things of value that you promised to give to the Lord.

When you do, get some of the first share of everything your soil produces. Put it in a basket. It’s from the land the Lord your God is giving you. Take your gifts and go to the special place he will choose. He will put his Name there.

Sacrifice an animal from your flock or herd. It is the Passover sacrifice to honor the Lord your God. Sacrifice it at the special place the Lord will choose. He will put his Name there.

The Lord appeared to him at night. The Lord said,“ I have heard your prayer. I have chosen this place for myself. It is a temple where sacrifices will be offered.

Let your eyes look toward this temple night and day. You said,‘ I will put my Name there.’ So please listen to the prayer I’m praying toward this place.

The Lord says,“ Heaven is my throne. The earth is under my control. So how could you ever build a house for me? Where would my resting place be?Didn’t I make everything by my power? That is how all things were created,” announces the Lord.“ The people I value are not proud. They are sorry for the wrong things they have done. They have great respect for what I say.

The Lord has chosen Zion. That’s the place where he wants to live.He has said,“ This will be my resting place for ever and ever. Here I will sit on my throne, because that’s what I want.

Instead, he chose to live in the tribe of Judah. He chose Mount Zion, which he loved.

He loves the city of Zion more than all the other places where the people of Jacob live.City of God, the Lord says glorious things about you.

“ But will you really live on earth? After all, the heavens can’t hold you. In fact, even the highest heavens can’t hold you. So this temple I’ve built certainly can’t hold you!

God’s whole nature is living in Christ in human form.

‘ I brought my people Israel out of Egypt. Ever since, I haven’t chosen a city in any tribe of Israel where a temple could be built for my Name. But I have chosen David to rule over my people Israel.’

“ The Lord has kept the promise he made. I’ve become the next king after my father David. Now I’m sitting on the throne of Israel. That’s exactly what the Lord promised would happen. I’ve built the temple where the Lord will put his Name. He is the God of Israel.

You are a building that is built on the apostles and prophets. They are the foundation. Christ Jesus himself is the most important stone in the building.The whole building is held together by him. It rises to become a holy temple because it belongs to the Lord.And because you belong to him, you too are being built together. You are being made into a house where God lives through his Spirit.

But you have come to Mount Zion. You have come to the city of the living God. This is the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to a joyful gathering of angels. There are thousands and thousands of them.

Be careful not to sacrifice your burnt offerings anywhere you want to.

Rehoboam was king in Judah. He was the son of Solomon. Rehoboam was 41 years old when he became king. He ruled for 17 years in Jerusalem. It was the city the Lord had chosen out of all the cities in the tribes of Israel. He wanted to put his Name there. Rehoboam’s mother was Naamah from Ammon.

Our people have always worshiped on this mountain. But you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.”Jesus said,“ Woman, believe me. A time is coming when you will not worship the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.You Samaritans worship what you do not know. We worship what we do know. Salvation comes from the Jews.

“ But the Most High God does not live in houses made by human hands. As God says through the prophet,“‘ Heaven is my throne. The earth is under my control. What kind of house will you build for me? says the Lord. Where will my resting place be?Didn’t my hand make all these things?’( Isaiah 66:1, 2)

Moses entered the tent of meeting. He wanted to speak with the Lord. There Moses heard the Lord talking to him. The Lord’ s voice was speaking to him from between the two cherubim. The cherubim were over the place where sin is paid for. It was the cover on the ark where the tablets of the covenant law were kept. In this way the Lord spoke to Moses.

The Lord gives me strength and protects me. He has saved me. He is my God, I will praise him. He is my father’s God, and I will honor him.

David announced,“ The house of the Lord God will be built here. Israel’s altar for burnt offerings will also be here.”

The ark is where the tablets of the covenant law are kept. I will meet with you above the cover between the two cherubim that are over the ark. There I will give you all my commands for the Israelites.

The whole community of Israel gathered together at Shiloh. They set up the tent of meeting there. The country was brought under their control.

I looked, and there in front of me was the Lamb. He was standing on Mount Zion. With him were 144,000 people. Written on their foreheads were his name and his Father’s name.

That day he made them cut wood and carry water. They had to serve the community of Israel. They also had to do work connected with the altar of the Lord. The altar would be at the place the Lord would choose. And they still serve the Israelites to this day.
