Book of Leviticus

Leviticus 6:27-28 has some familiar text, context, imagery, objects and word of instructions. However, there are some further details about washing the garment if speckled by blood of the sin offering, and instruction about the vessels in which the offering was boiled. These appear to be slightly different in material than the text before, and the last time a similar context was addressed for carrying our sacrifices.

The attention here is not so much on the two differences above (and maybe others) in the two verses. What is striking on reading these verses is that the unspoken might be beginning to be unfelt, and unrealised as well. That is, the sacrifice is carried out in the presence of God. The two actions, and the reasons for them, are so designed solely, purposefully and exclusively because of and for God. And that is because of our relationship, and our dependency on God himself.
