By diving into the scripture of Leviticus 21:16-24, you're about to discover that not all people were the target of this scripture, but it was specifically for the priests of that era. Join me as we peek into the intriguing world of this ancient text and unveil its relevance in today's context. Learn how each and every word in scripture is God-breathed and is instrumental in teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. We'll also emphasize that the quest for perfection shouldn't be a human endeavor but should be seen in Jesus, the ultimate sacrifice and bridge to living out the scripture.
