About this episode
How does a Holy God dwell among an imperfect people? Today, we reach the theological heart of Leviticus: the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). We see the powerful imagery of the two goats—one sacrificed and one sent into the wilderness—carrying away the sins of the nation. In Mark, we transition into the final days of Jesus’ life as He is anointed for burial and prepares for the ultimate Passover.Today’s Scripture:? Leviticus 15–16 – Laws regarding bodily discharges lead into the high-stakes rituals of the Day of Atonement, where the High Priest enters the Most Holy Place to make intercession for Israel.? Mark 13:32–14:16 – Jesus warns us to "Stay Awake," followed by the beautiful devotion of the woman with the alabaster flask and the quiet preparations for the Last Supper.? Psalm 31:1–8 – A prayer of absolute trust: "Into your hand I commit my spirit; you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God."RESOURCES & READ-ALONG ?
