Wherever Scripture Says For Me It Endures Forever

"And let them take for Me" (Exodus 25:2). The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Israel: The Torah was Mine, "that the Torah of the LORD may be in your mouth" (Exodus 13:9), and the judgment is Mine, as it is said, "for the judgment is God's" (Deuteronomy 1:17). You took them. Take Me along with them. This is what is written, "And let them take for Me." It is not written here "And let them take an offering," but "And let them take for Me." Every place where "for Me" is said is established forever and to all eternity. With the elders, "Gather to Me" (Numbers 11:16). With the priests, "that he may serve as priest to Me" (Exodus 28:1). With the Levites, "And the Levites shall be Mine" (Numbers 8:14). With Israel, "for to Me the children of Israel are servants" (Leviticus 25:55). With the kings, "for I have seen among his sons a king for Me" (1 Samuel 16:1). With the Land, "for all the earth is Mine" (Exodus 19:5). With the firstborn, "for every firstborn is Mine" (Numbers 8:17). With the Sanctuary, "And let them make Me a sanctuary" (Exodus 25:8). With the offering, "And let them take a portion for Me" (Exodus 25:2). With Jerusalem, "the city which I have chosen for Me" (1 Kings 11:13). With the altar, "An altar of earth you shall make for Me" (Exodus 20:21). With the anointing oil, "this shall be a holy anointing oil for Me" (Exodus 30:31). With the sacrifices, "to offer to Me in its appointed time" (Numbers 28:2).
