Morning Light - Leviticus 13

[Today: Leviticus 13] Pronounced Clean By Jesus Your High Priest. In Leviticus 13, the Lord instructs Moses regarding the disease of leprosy. Leprosy among the Hebrews was the unfortunate legacy of four centuries of enslavement in Egypt, where the incidence of this plague was common. A leper was required to present himself to the priest, and the priest followed a protocol by which healing was expected to come. Leprosy is a metaphor in the bible for the plague of sin that disfigures our lives. We are not left to ourselves in this condition. When you present yourself to Jesus, your High Priest, you are pronounced clean!
