Leviticus 14:11 The priest who pronounces them clean shall present both the one to be cleansed and their offerings before the Lord at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
Commentary says of verse 14’s placement of the blood of the guilt offering that it is “To signify that all Christ’s sanctified ones have a hearing ear, an active hand, a nimble foot to walk in the way that is called holy.”
Leviticus 14:12 “Then the priest is to take one of the male lambs and offer it as a guilt offering, along with the log of oil; he shall wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.
If verse 14 sounds familiar, it is because it is the same process priests go through when they are consecrated, which I find really interesting. Priests and recovered/clean lepers go through the same consecration process. That kind of blows my mind.
Leviticus 14:13 He is to slaughter the lamb in the sanctuary area where the sin offering and the burnt offering are slaughtered. Like the sin offering, the guilt offering belongs to the priest; it is most holy.
Precious Savior, At our most basic level, we are all Your deeply loved children. Thank You for the reminder that the consecration process for priests and lepers is exactly the same. Help me to remember that when I am tempted to judge. Help me, Jesus. Amen.
Leviticus 14:14 The priest is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot.
Have a blessed day.
