Priest Offerings

Ex 29:14-24

A bull and two rams offered as sacrifice for purification and installation.

The community comprised of the sons of Israel relate to God in solidarity – beyond the demands of the individual members – through the mediation of the priests.

The “we” of this community is different than the “we” that is spoken of in a modern context.

In these days, when we disagree we say, “That’s not my America”. The modern “we” is too often seen as a mere collection of individuals without common purpose, responsibility or accountability.

Solidarity calls us to relate differently with commitment and indelible association.

Christ following isn’t an individual sport. The team wins or loses together.
