Leviticus 19:19-34: The dangers of blending the Sacred and the Profane

A digitally illustrated image features a large, ornate scale at the center, with a background of farmland and rolling hills. Two sheep stand symmetrically on either side of the scale, surrounded by grapevines and plants. The scale's balance pans contain mismatched elements. The text overlay in bold black letters reads: "The dangers of blending the Sacred & the Profane" with a Bible reference to "Leviticus 19:19-34." A logo in the top right corner includes the text "hallel.info." The artwork has a vintage, biblical illustration style.

Lev. 19:19-34 may seem like a disjointed collection of rules about managing servants, textiles and crops. But when we see that these are used as symbols elsewhere for characteristics of people, we can learn God’s lessons that transcend culture and time.
