Day 32: Leviticus 7-9
Main People:
Priests,
Israelites, Moses, Aaron, Aaron’s sons
Key Points:
*There
are some rules here that stuck out at me.
You can take them how you want to take them (or rather, how God lays it
on your heart to take them…)
*Don’t eat fat (I’d be skinnier,
probably, if I followed this one lol)
*Don’t consume blood from bird or
animals (I like my food cooked
All the way… burned would be good ;)
)
*Aaron
and his sons were chosen as priests
*I
thought it was interesting that Aaron had to do a sin offering for himself
before he could do a sin offering for the Israelites. Our leaders have to have
their own sins taken care of before they can help the community. It’s the same
today. Preachers, leaders, (bloggers) have to take care of their sins first
before they can even dream of helping others. That doesn’t mean you’ll never
sin… the Israelites didn’t just kill one cow and it was done… it’s a continual
process. One that will make us better people.
Verses that Jumped Out at Me:
Leviticus 9:24—Fire blazed forth from
the Lord’s presence and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar.
When the people saw this, they shouted with joy and fell face down on the ground.
Question:
What was the
significance of making Aaron the high priest? How does that relate to Jesus?
