  “[Through this process, the priest will purify you before the Lord, making you right with him, and you will be forgiven for any of these sins you have committed.]”
  — Leviticus 6:7 (00:10-00:26)

• Clean vs. Unclean:

  • Miss Emily explains that being “unclean” isn’t the same as being sinful, but it still requires a process to become clean again.

God’s Fair and Accessible System

• Sacrificial System for All:
  • Miss Emily emphasizes, “God makes sure that everyone is able to participate in the sacrificial system he set up. For people who are poor, their sacrifices can be smaller than those of people who have more today.” (01:13-01:26)
