Leviticus 12 - 5:01 .
Leviticus 13 - 7:18 .
Psalm 43 - 19:32 .
As part of their covenant with the Lord, the Israelites were given regulations concerning what is considered clean and unclean. At times this is a means of health and well-being. At other times it serves as a distinction from surrounding nations. The term “unclean” doesn’t necessarily mean those things are dirty, germ-infested, or immoral, though some of them certainly are. It does mean these things are all ceremonially unclean. This is how Israel is to be set-apart from other nations and given fully to the Lord. These regulations would have made Israel a distinct people on the earth, reminding God’s people and displaying for the nations that they were fully devoted to the Lord.
