- Kol asher yiggâ bahem yikdash, "all (whether person or thing) that toucheth them shall be (or must be) holy;" that is, the priests must not eat of these oblations when under any ceremonial defilement, and the sacred utensils used about them must not be employed for any other purpose, or in any other way. "Sayª° unto¹ them, Whosoeverª¹ [he be] of all¹¹ your seedª among your generations,ª that¹ goethª° unto¹ the holy things,ª which¹ the childrenª of Israelª hallowª° unto the LORD,ª having his uncleannessª upon¹ him, that¹ soulª shall be cut offª° from my presence:ª¹ I¹ [am] the LORD.ª ... And when the sunª is down,ª° he shall be clean,ª° and shall afterwardª eatª° of¹ the holy things;ª because¹ it¹ [is] his food.ª" {Lev 22:3-7} + "Sevenª daysª thou shalt make an atonementª° for¹ the altar,ª and sanctifyª° it; and it shall be¹ an altarª most holy:ª whatsoever¹ touchethª° the altarª shall be holy.ª°" {Exd 29:37} + "If¹ oneª bearª° holyª fleshª in the skirtª of his garment,ª and with his skirtª do touchª°¹ bread,ª or pottage,ª or wine,ª or oil,ª or any¹ meat,ª shall it be holy?ª° And the priestsª answeredª° and said,ª° No.¹ ... Then answeredª° Haggai,ª and said,ª° So¹ [is] this¹ people,ª and so¹ [is] this¹ nationª beforeª me, saithª° the LORD;ª and so¹ [is] every¹ workª of their hands;ª and that which¹ they offerª° there¹ [is] unclean.ª" {Hgg 2:12-14} + "In that¹ dayª shall there be¹ upon¹ the bellsª of the horses,ª HOLINESSª UNTO THE LORD;ª and the potsª in the LORD'Sª houseª shall be¹ like the bowlsª beforeª the altar.ª ... Yea, every¹ potª in Jerusalemª and in Judahª shall be¹ holinessª unto the LORDª of hosts:ª and all¹ they that sacrificeª° shall comeª° and takeª° of¹ them, and seetheª° therein: and in that¹ dayª there shall be¹ no¹ more¹ the Canaaniteª in the houseª of the LORDª of hosts.ª" {Zch 14:20-21} + "Becauseª it is written,ª° Be¹ ye²° holy;ª forª Iª amª° holy.ª" {1Pe 1:16} + "Butª yeª [are] a chosenª generation,ª a royalª priesthood,ª an holyª nation,ª a peculiarªª people;ª thatª ye should shew forthª° the¹ praisesª of him¹ who hath calledª° youª out ofª darknessª intoª hisª marvellousª light:ª" {1Pe 2:9}
