Day 140—Holiness to Serve: Leviticus 21:1–6, 8, 16–21; 22:17–25, 31–33

from The Bible for the Broken

Leviticus 21 lists the physical conditions that disqualified a priest from serving at the altar. Then it says: the man with those conditions still ate the holy bread. He was still inside the covenant. He was still fed. The passage is not about his worth—it's about the one who stands in the gap. And that brings Hebrews 7:26 into view: "holy, innocent, undefiled." Every condition the system named as disqualifying, Jesus did not have. He met the standard you were never asked to meet.
