Who Would Buy That?

Text for discussion: Numbers 7.  

The Israelites consecrated the tabernacle and offered various kinds of offerings for acceptance by God and the forgiveness of sins.  To enter into God's presence they had to be made new again, made whole.  They, like we, were imperfect.  Who would purchase something like that?  Blemished, imperfect, even sometimes on its last legs?
