Exodus 30:17-21 and Luke 4:31-37 (NLT)

Exodus 30:17-21
Basin for Washing
17  Then the Lord said to Moses,
18  “Make a bronze washbasin with a bronze stand. Place it between the Tabernacle and the altar, and fill it with water.
19  Aaron and his sons will wash their hands and feet there.
20  They must wash with water whenever they go into the Tabernacle to appear before the Lord and when they approach the altar to burn up their special gifts to the Lord—or they will die!
21  They must always wash their hands and feet, or they will die. This is a permanent law for Aaron and his descendants, to be observed from generation to generation.”
Luke 4:31-37
Jesus Drives Out an Evil Spirit

31  Then Jesus went to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and taught there in the synagogue every Sabbath day.
32  There, too, the people were amazed at his teaching, for he spoke with authority.
33  Once when he was in the synagogue, a man possessed by a demon—an evil spirit—began shouting at Jesus, 
34  “Go away! Why are you interfering with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
35  Jesus cut him short. “Be quiet! Come out of the man,” he ordered. At that, the demon threw the man to the floor as the crowd watched; then it came out of him without hurting him further.
36  Amazed, the people exclaimed, “What authority and power this man’s words possess! Even evil spirits obey him, and they flee at his command!” 
37  The news about Jesus spread through every village in the entire region.
