We continue to see the preeminence of God:
“The firstborn of every animal belongs to me, including the firstborn males[e] from your herds of cattle and your flocks of sheep and goats. 20 A firstborn donkey may be bought back from the Lord by presenting a lamb or young goat in its place. But if you do not buy it back, you must break its neck. However, you must buy back every firstborn son. “No one may appear before me without an offering. Exodus 34:19-20
“As you harvest your crops, bring the very best of the first harvest to the house of the Lord your God. Exodus 34:26
Note God demands, DESERVES, the best!
But the flesh of the bull and its hide and its refuse, you shall burn with fire outside the camp; it is a sin offering. Exodus 29:14
As the Israelites travel from Egypt to the promised land, they camped along the way. The camp was considered clean. The outside of the camp was considered unclean. The flesh of the animals of the sin offering was burned outside the camp, the unclean place.
For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside the camp. 12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate. So, let us go out to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach. Hebrews 13:11-12
Christ went out to the unclean place to bear the sins of his people, so we also ought to go outside the camp and bear the reproach. We ought to go outside of the camp where the lost are and bring them in. Remember to reach out to people as you go about your daily life, talking to the person in front of you. Invite them to experience God. Invite them to come to church and experience God with you.
