Today is the 25th day of February.

Welcome to the Daily Audio Bible.

I am Brian.

It is fantastic to be here with you today from the Rolling Hills of Tennessee.

All gathered around the global campfire today, regardless of where we are on planet Earth.

It is a joy.

It is a privilege that we have this place and that we can gather together like this.

And so wonderful.

Wonderful to be here with you today as we take the next step forward.

The next step leads us back into the book of Leviticus.

And today we will read chapter 16, verse 29, through 18, verse 30.

On the tenth day of the appointed month in early autumn, you must deny yourselves.

Neither native born Israelites nor foreigners living among you may do any kind of work.

This is a permanent law for you.

On that day offerings of purification will be made for you, and you will be purified in

the Lord's presence from all your sins.

It will be a Sabbath day of complete rest for you and you must deny yourselves.

This is a permanent law for you.

In future generations, the purification ceremony will be performed by the priest who has been

anointed and ordained as service high priest in place of his ancestor, Aaron.

He will put on the holy linen garments and purify the most holy place, the tabernacle, the

altar, the priests, and the entire congregation.
