"INFECTED ONES"
(Weekly Reading>>Leviticus 14:1-15:33, 2 Kings 7:3-20, Hebrews 13:4, Matthew 9:20-26, Luke 17:1-37)
If the person could not afford the basic offering for the skin affliction he was to take one male lamb as a trespass offering, the grain offering and the oil, and wave them before God. The blood of the lamb and the oil were to follow the same pattern – on the right ear, the right thumb and the big right toe, and sprinkled over the person seven times as part of the ritual application of the law for status change from being ritually impure to ritual purity. In this way atonement was made for the believer who was unclean.
These same properties are used in the red heifer water purification in Numbers 19. They are also prophetic of Christ's fulfillment at His death and of the ritual application He made on our behalf. As believers we broke the vow we made with Him to uphold the Covenant He gave us. The Covenant can only be restored through blood. The blood of the lamb is the trespass offering and represents Christ's blood atonement. Blood represents God's truth (Torah - His Word) and the Bridal Covenant we originally made with Him at Mount Sinai.
To restore or redeem the unclean, the blood of the lamb and oil were to be placed.
The oil (corresponds to the water) and speaks of the restoration of Christ's Spirit within us. Thus it is by His Spirit and Truth we are set free. This status change is available to us through Christ's offering when the water (Spirit) and blood (Truth) flowed from His heart upon His death. His death brought this teaching in Leviticus to a greater and fuller understanding. This is the water and blood that cleanses us and removes the enmity (our sin and guilt) that stood between God and man. Today, we renew our Covenant each year through our worship on the Day of Atonement(Yom Kippur). On that day, we as believers, recognize and take responsibility for any personal and/or corporate sins we may knowingly or unknowingly have committed against Him, thereby appropriating Christ's atoning sacrifice each year and in keeping our temples clean before Him, as He is Holy, Holy, Holy(Kodesh, Kodesh, Kodesh).
