In Leviticus 21-22, the Lord demands that his priests must be holy in their walk and in their work. This call to holiness is not a legalistic burden but a reflection of God's own character and redeeming love.

The old covenant sacrifices were only a shadow of the good things to come. They were offered year after year, yet they could never take away sin or cleanse the conscience.

The Levitical priests stood d...

Do they know about the multitude of the heavenly host, announcing that...

He is the heir of all things, the agent of creation, the revealer of God, the u...
