Parashat Behar-Bechukotai
We sanctify God’s Name by keeping His commandments and by proclaiming His appointed times in their season because they declare His great works. They declare His purposes that He established for the purposes of restoring all of mankind.
The commandments found in Leviticus 17-18 correspond directly to the four commands given to Gentile believers by the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15. These four instructions remove barriers to fellowship and set a standard that allows Jew and Gentile to walk together in community as God’s holy people!
