Leviticus 16:17Easy To Read VersionAt the time that Aaron goes into the Most Holy Place to make {it and the people} pure, [285] no person must be in the Meeting Tent. No person must go in there until Aaron comes out. So, Aaron will make himself and his family pure. And he will make all the people of Israel pure. See the chapter |
“God has allowed 70 weeks {\cf2\super [105]} for your people and your holy city, Daniel. The 70 weeks {\cf2\super [106]} are ordered for these reasons: to stop doing bad things, to stop sinning, to make people pure, to bring the goodness that continues forever, to put a seal {\cf2\super [107]} on visions {\cf2\super [108]} and prophets, and to dedicate a very holy place.
In this way, Aaron will do the things to make the Most Holy Place [281] pure. [282] Aaron must do these things because the people of Israel are unclean. [283] They do wrong and have many sins. Aaron must also do these things for the Meeting Tent [284] because it stays in the middle of unclean people!
But only the high priest {\cf2\super [100]} could go into the second room. And the high priest went into that room only once a year. And the high priest could never enter that room without taking blood with him. The priest offered that blood to God for himself and for the people’s sins. Those sins were the sins the people did without knowing that they were sinning.
