This sermon reflects on multiple laws within this chapter that demonstrate God wants his people to be both united together and set apart for him.
God’s call for unity amongst his people is demonstrated in the law to care for your neighbours property/possessions and in the law to care for those who receive your hospitality.
God’s call to be set apart for him is demonstrated in the law to respect the difference between men and women, the law about sustainability, and the laws about mixing clean things with the unclean.
Only Jesus has perfectly fulfilled the law exemplifying perfect unity whilst being perfectly set apart for God. Therefore, we are no longer under these laws, but there is blessing to be received as we meditate on them asking God to show us more of his heart through them.
Lord, thank you for Jesus, help us as we meditate on these laws to grow in Godliness.
