Weekly Bible Reading for September 4-10: Ki Tetze (When You Go Out) - The Barking Fox

This coming week, September 4-10 (8-14 Elul 5782), the Bible reading plan covers the portion Ki Tetze (When You Go Out). 04 Sep Deuteronomy 21:10-21 Daniel 5:1-31 Hebrews 7:1-8:6 Psalm 119:153-16005 Sep Deuteronomy 21:22-22:7 Daniel 6:1-28 Hebrews 8:

Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided food for the king and his household. Each man had to make provision for one month in the year.
1 Kings 4:7

Solomon's 12 officers didn't strictly correspond to the 12 tribes, however the number was based on the number of tribes, not including Levi who would have been exempt from taxation.

Months ago, I'd found a picture post with information about a Weekly Teen Torah Study on Thursdays at 1pm via zoom. Due to joining a Thursday afternoon co-op, I'd thought the timing wouldn't work out but, now that our Thursdays have opened up, I cannot find the information.
Any chance that anyone else has information about this or another Teen Torah study?

Happy Prep Day Triumph In Truth family!

Per Deuteronomy 18:6, a Levite may choose his own time of service at the Temple. He can't be drafted or forced to serve. Once there, though, he doesn't necessarily get to choose his own job. This is a lot like surrendering to God. He calls, but he won't force you to answer except under extraordinary circumstances. But once you have committed to serve him, you don't get to dictate the terms of your service. It's all or nothing.

Vs 6-8 imply that a Levite is only entitled to a share in the firstfruits offerings when he is actively engaged in service at the altar. This also suggests that we should materially support those engaged in spiritual ministry in God's Kingdom.
