To Serve A HOLY GOD You Must Be Holy

Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers are part of the first five books of the Bible, (called the Pentateuch, which means “five books”) containing the LAW, the institution of the Tabernacle, and the construction of the Tabernacle. The Pentateuch outlines God’s chosen people, the descendents of Jacob whose name was changed to Israel. As a chosen people they were holy to God. Set aside by Him. Since God is HOLY, i.e. pure, everything concerning His worship had to be pure as well.

Leviticus 11:45 Be holy, because I am holy.

The people of Israel were chosen of God and called to live before God as a holy people, i.e., set apart by God, to God, for God’s glory and worship.

Leviticus, The Book of Holiness

LEVITICUS is called The Book of Holiness and is all things relative to the Levites. The Levites (designated as the priestly class) were holy, consecrated, sanctified, i.e., set aside to do God’s work as priests and serve in and over the Temple and the Tabernacle. Moses and his brother, Aaron, were both Levites. Samuel, Ezekiel, Ezra, and Malachi were also Levites. Aaron was the first high priest of Israel. The book of Leviticus contains many of the laws given by God to direct the work of the priests and the order of worship.

The Levites served various roles in the Temple included singing Psalms during Temple services, performing construction and maintenance for the Temple, serving as guards, and acting as teachers and judges. The Book of Ezra reports that the Levites were responsible for the construction of the Second Temple and translated and explained the Torah when it was publicly read. The Levites also maintained cities as refuge or sanctuary.

The Cities of Refuge were towns in Israel and Judah in which those guilty of manslaughter could claim the right of asylum. No harm was allowed to come to the perpetrator who would traditionally be supplied clothing and food. In the Books of Kings there are accounts of Joab and Adonijah each fleeing from Solomon to an altar, with their opponents being unwilling to attack them while they remained there: 1 Kings 1:50 Now Adonijah was afraid of Solomon; so he arose, and went and took hold of the horns of the altar. To take hold of the horns of the altar indicates they were safe inside the Temple in care of the priests and no harm should come to them.

Leviticus 22

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to Aaron and his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that they do not profane My holy name by what they dedicate to Me: I am the Lord. Say to them: ‘Whoever of all your descendants throughout your generations, who goes near the holy things which the children of Israel dedicate to the Lord, while he has uncleanness upon him, that person shall be cut off from My presence: I am the Lord.

‘Whatever man of the descendants of Aaron, who is a leper or has a discharge, shall not eat the holy offerings until he is clean. And whoever touches anything made unclean by a corpse, or a man who has had an emission of semen, or whoever touches any creeping thing by which he would be made unclean, or any person by whom he would become unclean, whatever his uncleanness may be— the person who has touched any such thing shall be unclean until evening, and shall not eat the holy offerings unless he washes his body with water. And when the sun goes down he shall be clean; and afterward he may eat the holy offerings, because it is his food. Whatever dies naturally or is torn by beasts he shall not eat, to defile himself with it: I am the Lord.

‘They shall therefore keep My ordinance, lest they bear sin for it and die thereby, if they profane it: I the Lord sanctify them.

‘No outsider shall eat the holy offering; one who dwells with the priest, or a hired servant, shall not eat the holy thing. But if the priest buys a person with his money, he may eat it; and one who is born in his house may eat his food. If the priest’s daughter is married to an outsider, she may not eat of the holy offerings. But if the priest’s daughter is a widow or divorced, and has no child, and has returned to her father’s house as in her youth, she may eat her father’s food; but no outsider shall eat it.

‘And if a man eats the holy offering unintentionally, then he shall restore a holy offering to the priest, and add one-fifth to it. They shall not profane the holy offerings of the children of Israel, which they offer to the Lord, or allow them to bear the guilt of trespass when they eat their holy offerings; for I the Lord sanctify them.’”

Offerings Accepted and Not Accepted

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to Aaron and his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘Whatever man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, who offers his sacrifice for any of his vows or for any of his freewill offerings, which they offer to the Lord as a burnt offering— you shall offer of your own free will a male without blemish from the cattle, from the sheep, or from the goats.

Whatever has a defect, you shall not offer, for it shall not be acceptable on your behalf. And whoever offers a sacrifice of a peace offering to the Lord, to fulfill his vow, or a freewill offering from the cattle or the sheep, it must be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no defect in it. Those that are blind or broken or maimed, or have an ulcer or eczema or scabs, you shall not offer to the Lord, nor make an offering by fire of them on the altar to the Lord. Either a bull or a lamb that has any limb too long or too short you may offer as a freewill offering, but for a vow it shall not be accepted.

‘You shall not offer to the Lord what is bruised or crushed, or torn or cut; nor shall you make any offering of them in your land. Nor from a foreigner’s hand shall you offer any of these as the bread of your God, because their corruption is in them, and defects are in them. They shall not be accepted on your behalf.’”

“Therefore you shall keep My commandments, and perform them: I am the Lord. You shall not profane My holy name, but I will be hallowed among the children of Israel. I am the Lord who sanctifies you, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am the Lord.”

Leviticus is very hard for some people to digest. Some read the very deep details of the law in this book and get very discouraged – especially people with a physical impairment. Portions of the Old Testament go to great lengths to emphasize that anyone with any type of limitation was not acceptable to offer service.

Leviticus 21:16-23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

“Speak to Aaron, saying: ‘No man of your descendants in succeeding generations, who has any defect, may approach to offer the bread of his God. For any man who has a defect shall not approach: a man blind or lame, who has a marred face or any limb too long, a man who has a broken foot or broken hand, or is a hunchback or a dwarf, or a man who has a defect in his eye, or eczema or scab, or is a eunuch. No man of the descendants of Aaron the priest, who has a defect, shall come near to offer the offerings made by fire to the Lord. He has a defect; he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God. He may eat the bread of his God, both the most holy and the holy; only he shall not go near the veil or approach the altar, because he has a defect, lest he profane My sanctuaries; for I the Lord sanctify them.’”

The key to understanding THE LAW and the Old Testament concept of a HOLY GOD, people who must be perfect and holy to be in His presence, and offerings that must be perfect to be accepted by Him is Jesus.

The Old Testament LAW was put in place to highlight and emphasize human inability to be holy or righteous on our own and to show us our desperate need for a savior.

Romans 15:4 For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.

The Lamb of God
John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

2 Corinthians 5:21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

To state that any man who has a defect shall not approach: a man blind or lame, who has a marred face or any limb too long, a man who has a broken foot or broken hand, or is a hunchback or a dwarf, or a man who has a defect in his eye, or eczema or scab, or is a eunuch seems like it makes God out to be a very unkind deity. God is not unkind. God is a merciful and gracious God. This hard-line was drawn as a precursor to the perfection of Jesus.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

The LAW was never able nor meant to make men holy. Only God makes holy. Only by trading our inadequate, imperfect lives for the pure righteousness of Christ can we come boldly to God dressed to stand before Him.

Romans 8:1-4 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

Deuteronomy 14:2 For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

Deuteronomy 23:14 For the Lord your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and give your enemies over to you; therefore your camp shall be holy, that He may see no unclean thing among you, and turn away from you.

Isaiah 43:3 For I am the Lord your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;

Isaiah 43:15 I am the Lord, your Holy One, The Creator of Israel, your King.

Isaiah 45

“Thus says the Lord to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held— To subdue nations before him and loose the armor of kings, to open before him the double doors, so that the gates will not be shut:

‘I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron.

I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, That you may know that I, the Lord, Who call you by your name, Am the God of Israel.

For Jacob My servant’s sake, and Israel My elect, I have even called you by your name; I have named you, though you have not known Me.

I am the Lord, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me.

I will gird you, though you have not known Me, that they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting that there is none besides Me.

I am the Lord, and there is no other; I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the Lord, do all these things.’

“Rain down, you heavens, from above, And let the skies pour down righteousness; let the earth open, let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together. I, the Lord, have created it.

“Woe to him who strives with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’ Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’? Woe to him who says to his father, ‘What are you begetting?’ Or to the woman, ‘What have you brought forth?’”

Thus says the Lord, The Holy One of Israel, and his Maker:

“Ask Me of things to come concerning My sons; and concerning the work of My hands, you command Me. I have made the earth, and created man on it. I — My hands — stretched out the heavens, and all their host I have commanded.

I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways; He shall build My city and let My exiles go free, not for price nor reward,” Says the Lord of hosts.

The Lord, the Only Savior – Thus says the Lord:

“The labor of Egypt and merchandise of Cush and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you, and they shall be yours; they shall walk behind you, they shall come over in chains; and they shall bow down to you.

They will make supplication to you, saying, ‘Surely God is in you, and there is no other; there is no other God.’”

Truly You are God, who hide Yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior!

They shall be ashamed and also disgraced, all of them; they shall go in confusion together, who are makers of idols. But Israel shall be saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation; You shall not be ashamed or disgraced Forever and ever.

For thus says the Lord, Who created the heavens, Who is God, Who formed the earth and made it, Who has established it, Who did not create it in vain, Who formed it to be inhabited:

“I am the Lord, and there is no other. I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth; I did not say to the seed of Jacob, ‘Seek Me in vain’; I, the Lord, speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

“Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. They have no knowledge, who carry the wood of their carved image, and pray to a god that cannot save. Tell and bring forth your case; yes, let them take counsel together.

Who has declared this from ancient time? Who has told it from that time? Have not I, the Lord? And there is no other God besides Me, a just God and a Savior; There is none besides Me.

“Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. I have sworn by Myself; the word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that to Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath.

He shall say, ‘Surely in the Lord I have righteousness and strength. To Him men shall come, and all shall be ashamed who are incensed against Him. In the Lord all the descendants of Israel shall be justified, and shall glory.’”

Isaiah 47:4 As for our Redeemer, the Lord of hosts is His name, The Holy One of Israel.

Isaiah 48:17 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you by the way you should go.

Isaiah 49:7 Thus says the Lord, The Redeemer of Israel, their Holy One, to Him whom man despises, to Him whom the nation abhors, to the Servant of rulers: “Kings shall see and arise, Princes also shall worship, Because of the Lord who is faithful, The Holy One of Israel; And He has chosen You.”

Isaiah 52:10 The Lord has made bare His holy arm In the eyes of all the nations; And all the ends of the earth shall see The salvation of our God.

Daniel 4:18 “This dream I, King Nebuchadnezzar, have seen. Now you, Belteshazzar, declare its interpretation, since all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known to me the interpretation; but you are able, for the Spirit of the Holy God is in you.”
