Beyond Food: Holiness as a Way of Life (Leviticus 11)

A digitally illustrated graphic in a paper-cut style featuring various animals, including a cow, a calf, a deer, and several fish, arranged within a decorative wreath. The background is a rich teal color. The text overlay reads, "Beyond Food: Holiness as a Way of Life - Leviticus 11." A logo in the upper right corner displays "hallel.info."

Leviticus 11-16 are about how to discern “cleanliness” vs. “uncleanliness.” God is giving us these instructions because He is holy — literally, set apart or distinct — and wants us to be holy, i.e., set apart for God’s purpose. God does not say that we will never be in a situation where we will be exposed to “uncleanliness.” Exposure to “uncleanliness” is a part of being in this world. God is giving us a simple object lesson about how to go from unclean to clean, from unholy to holy.
