Leviticus 11:1-47; Leviticus 12:1-8; Leviticus 13:1-59; Leviticus 14:1-57; Leviticus 15:1-33; Leviticus 16:1-34III. The Laws of Clean and Unclean-The Walk with God through Separation (Leviticus 11-16) This section has a very intimate relation to the two main sections preceding it. We have al-ready been taught that the way to God, that is, the way to find pardon and favor with God, is through the offering of divinely-appointed sacrifices (I), which must be offered through a divinely-appointed priesthood (II). The people having by the use of these divinely-appointed means been accepted into favor and fellowship with God, the question now arises, What kind of a life should such chosen people live in order to maintain that fellowship into which they have been introduced? What are the things which separate from God? The answer is found in section III, dealing with the laws of clean and unclean. Two kinds of uncleanness are dealt with: Ceremonial (Leviticus 11:1-47; Leviticus 12:1-8; Leviticus 13:1-59; Leviticus 14:1-57; Leviticus 15:1-33; Leviticus 16:1-34), that which arises from the use of certain foods, the coming into contact with dead bodies, the disease of leprosy and various kinds of sickness; Moral uncleanness (Leviticus 17:1-16; Leviticus 18:1-30; Leviticus 19:1-37; Leviticus 20:1-27; Leviticus 21:1-24; Leviticus 22:1-33; Leviticus 23:1-44; Leviticus 24:1-23; Leviticus 25:1-55; Leviticus 26:1-46; Leviticus 27:1-34), which was occasioned by transgression of God’ s Moral Law whether written in the heart or on tables of stone. The moral offenses dealt with in these chapters are of two kinds: First, Willful, known sin. Such disobedience merits punishment. No one can sin with impunity. No willful sin is settled merely by sacrifice; some punishment must be meted out for it. Second, Sins of ignorance, for which atonement was made by offerings and compensation. Very light cases might be atoned for by certain ceremonials of washing; whereas graver cases called for sacrifices. The section we are now dealing with (III) deals with Ceremonial uncleanness (Leviticus 11:1-47; Leviticus 12:1-8; Leviticus 13:1-59; Leviticus 14:1-57; Leviticus 15:1-33; Leviticus 16:1-34).
