Day 122: Immersed in Leviticus - Cleansing, Holiness, and Redemption

Today's Bible reading experience dives into the Book of Leviticus, continuing the journey from Exodus where the Israelites receive detailed instructions from God via Moses at Mount Sinai. These laws focus on maintaining a close relationship with God by distinguishing between what is clean and unclean, and what is common and holy. The episode breaks down the major groups of instructions in Leviticus: offerings for cleansing, causes of uncleanness and restoration, everyday and worship-related holiness, and the redemption process. It culminates in an explanation of the ultimate goal of these laws—to set Israel apart as a holy nation dedicated to God, capable of restoration even after disobedience.

QUICK START GUIDE
3 ways to get the most out of your experience

1. Use Immerse: Beginnings instead of your regular chapter and verse Bible. This special reader’s edition restores the Bible to its natural simplicity and beauty by removing chapter and verse numbers and other historical additions. Letters look like letters, songs look like songs, and the original literary structures are visible in each book.
2. Commit to making this a community experience. Immerse is designed for groups to encounter large portions of the Bible together
   for 8 weeks–more like a book club, less like a Bible study. By meeting every week in small groups and discussing what you read in open,
   honest conversations, you and your community can come together to be transformed through an authentic experience with the Scriptures.
3. Aim to understand the big story. Read through “The Stories and the Story” (p. 483) to see how the books of the Bible work together to tell God’s story of his creation’s restoration. As you read through Immerse: Beginnings, rather than ask, “How do I fit God into my busy life?” begin asking, “How can I join in God’s great plan by living out my part in his story?”
