Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 22:17-25

How very interesting is it to every true believer in CHRIST, to see him the great and unblemished sacrifice, so uniformly pointed out in every one. As the LORD JESUS confessed a good confession before Pontius Pilate; so this unjust judge unwillingly and unknowingly gave a true testimony to the purity of the LORD JESUS, as an unblemished sacrifice, by which this scripture was fulfilled, when he brought forth the LAMB of GOD before the people, declaring that he could find in him no fault at all.... read more

Not only must the priest himself be free from blemish and defilement, he must see to it that all that which he offered was to be of h e same character. Yet again, he was not to exercise hospitality toward those who were unclean or strangers to the covenant of the things which pertained to the House of his God. These stringent instructions closed with a reaffirmation of the reason, which had been given in... read more
