The Bible for the Broken

Day 139—Consequences and Calling: Leviticus 20:1–5, 7–8, 22–27


Listen Later

Leviticus 20 opens with the most severe language in all of Leviticus—"I myself will set my face against that man." It does not soften what it means to violate holiness. But here is what it is easy to miss: this chapter ends with "mine." After every penalty, every warning, every consequence—God arrives at belonging. The whole structure exists in service of that final word. The God who takes sin seriously enough to name its consequences is the same God who ends the chapter with "you are mine."
