Outline

—． definition of holy

  • The word holy means “to set apart” (Leviticus 22);
  • God is "holy", which means that God is separate from all created things;
  • The moral standards of holiness and unholiness come from God.

two. A sanctified mind

  • When God created man, He also expected man to be related to His moral attributes, that is, man should also be holy.
  • “Sanctify”: Negatively speaking, it means being separated from uncleanness; positively speaking, it means that we are sanctified to Jehovah. (Leviticus 10-47, Numbers 24-26; Numbers 15:40; Deuteronomy 26:19)
  • Human beings are sinful by nature and cannot avoid sin on their own. Therefore, God established sacrifices so that people can learn to live a holy life instead of relying on their own good deeds to obtain forgiveness of sins. you

three. scope of holiness

  • Including external ritual aspects—people and things related to worship and rituals; (Exodus 29:19, 21; Leviticus 20-6; Numbers 8:5)
  • It also includes our inner moral aspects—people’s pursuit of integrity, righteousness, and honesty; (Leviticus 19:2; Numbers 15:40)
  • External etiquette and internal integrity are inseparable. For example, the "Nazarite" in Numbers 6 is the "distinguisher".

Four. A sanctified life

  • The holiness of the utensils – the utensils themselves have no moral character, but are sanctified because they are used by Jehovah.
  • The festivals are made holy – to make people live holy to Jehovah
  • Apart from hygienic reasons or symbolic meanings, the separation of food from clean and unclean was a way for the Israelites to show their loyalty to God.

five. Today's application

  • Understand that Jehovah is the only true God;
  • Maintain moral standards in the details of life.
