  Leviticus chapter 13. Let us pray.
• 0:03
  Our Father, who is in heaven, holy is your name, your Kingdom
• 0:13
  come, and your will be done on earth, just as it is there in
• 0:18
  heaven. Give us this day Our Daily
• 0:21
  Bread. Forgive us for our many sins as
• 0:24
  we forgive those who trespassed against us.
• 0:28
  Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one for
• 0:33
  yours it's the Kingdom, and the glory and the power and the
• 0:37
  honor, forever and ever. Amen.
• 0:41
  Well, let's start in verse one. And the Lord spoke unto Moses
• 0:47
  and Aaron, saying, what did he say?
• 0:52
  Let's go to verse 2. When a man shall have in the
• 0:55
  skin of his flesh a rising, a scab, a bright spot, and it be
• 0:59
  in the skin of his flesh like the plague of a leprosy, then he
• 1:02
  shall be brought unto Aaron the priest, and unto one of his
• 1:05
  sons, the priests. So here's what you need to know
• 1:09
  is that all sin is like leprosy. You need to understand that
• 1:13
  everything that is outlined in this chapter relates to the sin
• 1:17
  in our life and it shows U as something that is just little
• 1:22
  and doesn't really matter and it might go away but what it does
• 1:26
  is overtime it grabs hold of us and we lose our life.
• 1:30
  All sin leads to death. No matter how fun it is in the
• 1:34
  beginning, no matter how little and mundane and minuscule it is
• 1:38
  in the beginning, in the end it bites like a Viper.
• 1:41
  In the end it leads to loss of limb and life and livelihood and
• 1:47
  it the loss of family and the loss of job and the loss of our
• 1:51
  minds and the loss of everything that is good and wholesome and
• 1:55
  pure and holy. Friends verse 3 And the priest
• 1:59
  shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh, and when the
• 2:02
  hair in the plague is turned white and the plague insight is
• 2:06
  deeper than the skin in his flesh, it is a plague of
• 2:09
  leprosy. And the priest shall look on him
• 2:12
  and pronounce him unclean. And you see this in Jesus's day
• 2:16
  there was camps of lepers, friends.
• 2:19
  And by and large leprosy is still on the scene in the world,
• 2:23
  mostly in undeveloped countries. But you need to know, friends,
• 2:28
  the disease of sin has not gone anywhere.
• 2:32
  And as a matter of fact, it's only gotten worse.
• 2:35
  And Jesus told us that as time goes on, it's going to get worse
• 2:39
  and worse and worse. And if God had not shortened the
• 2:43
  days of the tribulation, no one would survive.
• 2:46
  It'll be worse than the days of Noah, friends, this sin disease
• 2:51
  that we house and we desperately need the blood of Jesus Christ
• 2:55
  to cover us. There is no hope apart from
• 2:59
  Jesus in the ultimate healing that he can give you, friends.
• 3:03
  And your eyes can be opened, and your ears can be unstopped, and
• 3:06
  a new heart can be cultivated, and a new life can be born.
• 3:11
  Friends five. And the priest shall look on him
• 3:16
  the 7th day. And behold, if the plague in his
• 3:19
  sight be at a stay, and the plague spread not in the skin,
• 3:23
  then the priest shall shut him up 7 days more.
• 3:26
  So this is what you need to know.
• 3:28
  The guy who had or the lady who had, the person who had the
• 3:32
  spots on them, they were required to go to the priest and
• 3:36
  to be looked over. And if they thought that it
• 3:40
  could be healed, they would shut them up for seven days.
• 3:44
  And you need to know, in the history of the Jewish nation,
• 3:49
  they have been spared and hate. They have not been completely
• 3:53
  eradicated because of their kosher diets.
• 3:56
  And because God all the way back here in the book of Leviticus,
• 4:00
  He knew well how to keep them going and fuelled and how to
• 4:04
  keep them on the scene until the very day that you and I live in.
• 4:09
  And they are not going anywhere. They will stand the test of time
• 4:16
  six, and the priest shall look on him again the 7th day and
• 4:19
  behold it the plague be somewhat dark, and the plague spread not
• 4:24
  in the skin. The priest shall pronounce him
• 4:26
  clean it it is but a scab, and he shall wash his clothes and be
• 4:30
  clean. Aren't we thankful that Jesus
• 4:33
  washes us and makes us clean? 7 But if the scab spread much
• 4:38
  abroad in the skin, after that has been seen of the priest for
• 4:42
  his cleansing, he shall be seen in the priest again. 8 And let
• 4:46
  the priest see that behold, the scab spreads in the skin, and
• 4:49
  the priest shall pronounce him unclean.
• 4:52
  It is leprosy. So this was relegated to many
• 4:56
  skin diseases, not just to leprosy.
• 4:59
  And you need to know that God here is giving them the
• 5:04
  prescription of how they are to operate within the camp as they
• 5:08
  move about and as they get into the cities and they are packed
• 5:13
  on top of each other. And even in the Black Plague
• 5:16
  that killed millions of people in Europe, the Jews were spared
• 5:21
  because of all the mandates that are outlined here.
• 5:24
  What an amazing God that we serve. 9 When the plague of
• 5:31
  leprosy is in a man, then he shall be brought unto the
• 5:34
  priest. 10 And the priest shall see him, and behold, if the
• 5:37
  rising be white in the skin, and if it had be turned the hair
• 5:41
  white, and there be quick raw flesh in the rising, 11 it is an
• 5:46
  old leprosy in the skin of his flesh, And the priest shall
• 5:49
  pronounce him unclean, and shall not shut him up, for he is
• 5:53
  unclean. 12 And if a leprosy break out abroad in the skin,
• 5:57
  and the leprosy cover all the of him that has the plague from his
• 6:01
  head even to his foot, wheresoever the priest looks,
• 6:05
  aren't you thankful that the blood of Jesus Christ covers us
• 6:08
  from the top of our head to the bottom of our feet?
• 6:11
  And we can stand before a holy God, and he's going to say, well
• 6:15
  done, good and faithful servant, come in to the rest that I have
• 6:20
  for you. Take charge over the cities.
• 6:23
  What an amazing God we serve. And here you can see that these
• 6:27
  people who were suffering from a skin disease were to go into a
• 6:31
  period of the priest, and they would look upon them, and then
• 6:34
  they would tell them what it they were to do. 13 Then the
• 6:42
  priest shall consider, and behold that the leprosy have
• 6:45
  covered all his flesh. He shall pronounce him clean.
• 6:48
  That has the plague. It is all turned white.
• 6:51
  He is clean. So when it's all turned white
• 6:53
  and not dark friends, then it was healing and it had
• 6:57
  miraculously healed, or it was not leprosy and it was just
• 7:02
  something that had healed on its own.
• 7:04
  And that is what he's talking about here.
• 7:06
  He did not want this infectious disease to break out in the camp
• 7:11
  and to eradicate the Jews. 14. But when raw flesh appears in
• 7:20
  him, he shall be unclean. 15. And the priest shall see the raw
• 7:24
  flesh and pronounce him to be unclean, for the raw flesh is
• 7:28
  unclean. It is a leprosy. 16 Or if the
• 7:31
  raw flesh turn again and changed into white, he shall come to the
• 7:36
  priest, 17 And the priest shall see him, and behold, if the
• 7:39
  plague be turned into white, then the priest shall pronounce
• 7:42
  him clean, that he has the plague.
• 7:44
  He is clean. So here they could be healed.
• 7:48
  It was not just a death sentence forever.
• 7:51
  It could have been a misdiagnosis, it could have been
• 7:53
  a miraculous healing. It could have been some other
• 7:56
  skin condition. But you need to know that it was
• 8:00
  not all hopeless. And when you come to the Lord
• 8:02
  Jesus Christ there is only hope. Even in death there's hope. 18
• 8:09
  the flesh also, in which even the skin thereof was a boil, and
• 8:12
  is healed. 19 And in the place of the boil there be a white
• 8:16
  rising, or a bright spot white and somewhat reddish, and it be
• 8:20
  showed to the priest. 20 And if when the priest sees it, behold
• 8:25
  it be in the sight lower than the skin, and the hair thereof
• 8:29
  be turned white, the priest shall pronounce him unclean.
• 8:32
  Is a plague of leprosy broken out of the boil?
• 8:36
  21 But if the priest look on it and behold, there'd be no white
• 8:39
  hairs in it, and it'd be no lower than the skin, but be
• 8:43
  somewhat dark, then the priest shall shut him up 7 days. 22 And
• 8:48
  if it's spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall
• 8:52
  pronounce him unclean. It is a plague. 23 But if the
• 8:55
  bright spots stay in this place and spread not, it is a burning
• 8:59
  boil, and the priest shall pronounce out some clean. 24 And
• 9:03
  if there be any flesh in the skin where there's a hot burning
• 9:06
  in the quick flesh that burns, have a white bright spot,
• 9:09
  somewhat reddish or white. 25 Then the priest shall look upon
• 9:13
  it, and behold, if the hair in the bright spot be turned white,
• 9:17
  and it be insight deeper than the skin, it is a leprosy broken
• 9:22
  out of the burning, wherefore the priest shall pronounce him
• 9:25
  unclean. It is a plague of leprosy.
• 9:28
  This is the way that sin works, friends.
• 9:30
  It creeps send unaware, it grabs a hold of you, and it strangles
• 9:34
  out all of the fruit and all of the life. 26 But if the priest
• 9:40
  look on it, and behold there be no white hair in the bright
• 9:43
  spot, and it be no lower than the other skin, but be somewhat
• 9:47
  dark, then the priest shall shut him up 7 days. 27.
• 9:51
  And the priest shall look upon him the 7th day, and if it be
• 9:54
  spread much abroad in the skin, then the priest shall pronounce
• 9:58
  him unclean. It is the plague of leprosy. 20
• 10:01
  And if the bright spots stay in his place, and spread not in the
• 10:04
  skin, but it be somewhat dark, it is a rising of the burning,
• 10:08
  and the priest shall pronounce among clean, for it is an
• 10:11
  inflammation of the burning. 29 Or if a man or a woman have a
• 10:15
  plague upon the head or the beard, 30 then the priest shall
• 10:19
  see the plague, and behold, if it be in the sight deeper than
• 10:23
  the skin, and there being it a yellow thin hair, then the
• 10:26
  priest shall pronounce them unclean.
• 10:28
  It is a dry skull, even a leprosy upon the head or the
• 10:32
  beard. 31 And if the priest look on the plague of the skull, and
• 10:35
  behold it be not in the sight deeper than the skin, and there
• 10:39
  be no black hair in it, then the shall shut up him that has the
• 10:43
  plague of the skull seven days. 32 And in the 7th day the priest
• 10:47
  shall look on the plague, and behold, if the skull spread not,
• 10:51
  and there be in it no yellow hair, then the skull be not in
• 10:54
  the sight deeper than the skin. 33 He shall be shaved, but the
• 10:59
  skull shall he not shave, and the priest shall shut him up to
• 11:03
  have the skull seven days more. 34 And in the 7th day, and the
• 11:07
  priest shall look on the skull, and behold at the skull be not
• 11:10
  spread in the skin, nor be in the sight deeper than the skin.
• 11:13
  Then the priest shall pronounce him clean, and he shall wash his
• 11:17
  clothes and be clean. 35 But if the skull spread much, and the
• 11:21
  skin after his cleansing, 36th And the priest shall look on
• 11:25
  him, and behold, if the skull be spread in the skin, then the
• 11:28
  priest shall not seek for the yellow hair, for he is unclean.
• 11:32
  37 But if the skull be in his sight at a stay, and there be a
• 11:37
  black hair grown up in it, the skull is healed, he is clean,
• 11:41
  and the priest shall pronounce clean. 38 If a man also or a
• 11:45
  woman having the skin of their flesh bright spots, even white
• 11:49
  bright spots, 39 then the priest shall look and behold at the
• 11:52
  bright spots in the skin of the flesh be darkish white.
• 11:56
  It is a freckle spot that groweth in the skin.
• 11:58
  He is clean. 40 And if the man whose hair is falling off of his
• 12:03
  head, he is bald, yet he is clean.
• 12:07
  So what you need to know, friends, in this many verses is
• 12:10
  that they were protecting the camp.
• 12:13
  It was better to isolate one individual to a life of demise
• 12:20
  in the life of hurt and agony than for the entire camp to be
• 12:25
  affected and infected and for it to break out and kill off an
• 12:30
  entire generation. What an amazing God we serve.
• 12:34
  He's even in the science, and science is nothing more than
• 12:38
  thinking God's thoughts after God.
• 12:40
  When we discover things, microorganisms and how diseases
• 12:45
  work and infectious diseases and the virology of how things are
• 12:49
  spread, you need to know that God already had it all in His
• 12:52
  mind. We are not outpacing God.
• 12:55
  We're just trying to catch up with the infinite mind of God.
• 12:59
  That's what you need to know. He is clean if he's bald, 41 And
• 13:03
  he that has his hair fallen off from the part of his head
• 13:07
  towards his face, he is forehead bald, yet he is clean. 42 And if
• 13:13
  there be in the bald head or a bald forehead, a white reddish
• 13:17
  sword, it is a leprosy sprung up in the bald head or his bald
• 13:21
  forehead. 43 Then the priest shall look upon it, and behold,
• 13:27
  if the rising of the sore be white, reddish in his bald head,
• 13:31
  or in his bald forehead, as the leprosy appears in the skin of
• 13:35
  the flesh, 44 he is a leprous man, he is unclean.
• 13:39
  The priest shall pronounce him utterly unclean.
• 13:42
  His plague is in his head. 45 And if the leper in whom the
• 13:46
  plague is, his clothes shall be rent, and his head bare, and he
• 13:50
  shall put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall cry
• 13:53
  unclean, unclean. So this is what you see in
• 13:57
  Jesus's day. You see that the lepers were to
• 14:02
  stay afar off, and if anybody was to come near, they were to
• 14:06
  cry out unclean and unclean. And we see that Jesus was not
• 14:10
  afraid of the lepers. Jesus went into their midst, and
• 14:14
  Jesus healed him. And he could do the same for
• 14:17
  you, and he could do the same for me today.
• 14:19
  But he believes you in that disease.
• 14:21
  If he leaves you in that sickness, friends, there is much
• 14:25
  more glory for for him. Perhaps it's the nurses, the
• 14:28
  doctors, the intake staff. Perhaps it's the people at the
• 14:31
  hospital. Perhaps it's those who are going
• 14:34
  to be coming into your home and talking with you that God is
• 14:38
  after. And even in death, there's
• 14:40
  liberation and liberty and freedom.
• 14:42
  Friends, we do not need to fear death.
• 14:44
  Jesus conquered the grave, friends, and you can step on the
• 14:48
  head of the heel of the snake. You could give him his marching
• 14:52
  orders and tell him to leave. Fear must go.
• 14:55
  It cannot cohabitate with us, friends.
• 14:57
  We do not need to fear death. We do not need to fear disease.
• 15:01
  We do not need to fear those who can take our life away.
• 15:04
  We fear God, and everything else bows unto a holy God. 46 All the
• 15:16
  days wherein the plague shall be in him, he shall be defiled, he
• 15:19
  is unclean, he shall dwell alone outside the camp shall his
• 15:23
  habitation be. 47 The garment also that the plague of the
• 15:27
  leprosy is in, whether it be a wool garment or a linen garment,
• 15:31
  48 whether it be in the warp, or in the wolf, or in the linen or
• 15:34
  woolen, whether in the skin or anything made of skin. 49 And if
• 15:39
  the plague be greenish or reddish in the garment or the
• 15:41
  skin, either in the warp or the wolf, or anything in the skin,
• 15:45
  and it is a plague of leprosy, and shall be showed unto the
• 15:48
  priest. 50 And the priest shall look upon the plague and shut it
• 15:51
  up. It has the plague 7 days. 51 And
• 15:54
  he shall look upon the plague on the 7th day.
• 15:57
  If the plague be spread in the garment, either in the warp or
• 15:59
  the woof, or in the skin, or any work that isn't made of the
• 16:02
  skin, the plague is a fretting leprosy, it is unclean. 52 And
• 16:07
  he shall therefore burn that garment, whether wolf or woolen
• 16:13
  or linen or anything in the skin, where the plague is, for
• 16:17
  it is a fretting leprosy. It shall be burnt in the fire.
• 16:20
  So that is the mandate for anything that is touched, this
• 16:24
  leprosy or mildew or mold or whatever the infectious thing
• 16:28
  is, if it is a spreading thing, it is to be burned up.
• 16:31
  And this was to keep them from being sick. 53 And if the priest
• 16:38
  shall look, and behold the plague be not spreaded the
• 16:41
  garment either in the warp or the wolf, or anything of the
• 16:43
  skin, 54. Then the priest shall command
• 16:46
  that they wash the thing wherein the plague is, and he shall shut
• 16:49
  it up 7 days more. 55. And the priest shall look on the
• 16:53
  plague after that it is washed, and beholdeth the plague have
• 16:56
  not charged his color, and the plague be not spread.
• 16:58
  It is unclean thou shall you burn it in the fire.
• 17:02
  It is fret inward, whether it be bare within or without. 50 And
• 17:07
  if the priest look and behold the plague be somewhat dark
• 17:10
  after the washing of it, then he shall RIP it out of the garment,
• 17:13
  or out of the skin, or out of the warp, or out of the wolf. 57
• 17:17
  If they appear still in the garment, either in the warp or
• 17:20
  in the wolf, or anything of the skin, it is a spreading plague.
• 17:23
  And you shall burn that wherein the plague is with fire. 58 And
• 17:27
  the garment either warp or wolf, or whatsoever thing of skin it
• 17:31
  be, then you shall wash it. The plague be departed from
• 17:34
  them. Then they shall be washed the
• 17:35
  second time and shall be clean. So if they wanted to keep this
• 17:40
  material, whether it was leather or wool or whatever the material
• 17:45
  was, and it was looked upon and it had not spread, they could
• 17:48
  cut off the section that had the mildew, the mold, or whatever
• 17:52
  the infectious disease was. They could cut it off and wash
• 17:55
  it twice and keep it. God even cares about the
• 18:00
  coverings, friends. He cares about everything.
• 18:04
  Well then on 59. This is the law of the plague of
• 18:06
  leprosy in the garment of woolen or linen, either in the Wharf or
• 18:10
  the wolf or anything of skins. To pronounce it clean or to
• 18:14
  pronounce it unclean. And you can be clean by being
• 18:17
  covered in the blood of Jesus Christ.
• 18:19
  You don't have to stay unclean. You don't have to stay outside.
• 18:22
  You can come into the fold. His sheep hear his voice.
• 18:26
  I pray that you do. I pray that you've been covered
• 18:28
  in the blood. I pray that you are His and you
• 18:30
  belong to Him, and He knows you. And when the door is open and
• 18:34
  then the groom comes, we go in as the wise versions and we're
• 18:37
  not left out. Friends, look up and see your
• 18:40
  redemption is drawing near. I hope that you've been blessed
• 18:43
  by this amazing chapter in God's Word.
• 18:46
  I know I sure have. I'm praying for every single one
• 18:49
  of you. I love you.
• 18:52
  We'll see you back here tomorrow.
• 18:53
  God bless you.
