EVERY ONE THAT IS CLEAN shall eat the HOLY OFFERINGS ( Numbers 18:11). But for THOSE WHO ARE NOT CLEAN Jesus said, "WOE UNTO YOU, scribes and Pharisees, HYPOCRITES! for YE PAY TITHE of mint and anise and cummin, and have OMITTED THE "WEIGHTIER" MATTERS OF THE LAW, judgment, mercy, and faith: these OUGHT YE TO HAVE DONE, and not to leave the other undone" ( Matthew 23:23). MEANING: Even you give tithes and yet inside of you is FULL OF DEAD MEN'S BONES AND ALL UNCLEANNESS you are nothing but a CURSED, "WOE UNTO YOU, scribes and Pharisees, HYPOCRITES! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear BEAUTIFUL OUTWARD, but are WITHIN FULL OF DEAD MEN'S BONES, AND OF ALL UNCLEANNESS" ( Matthew 23:27). Therefore, IN HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS BEFORE HIM is what matters most than any other offerings. Most especially AFTER BEING REDEEMED AND DELIVERED: "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for HE hath visited and REDEEMED his people ( Luke 1:68), That HE would grant unto us, that WE BEING DELIVERED out of the hand of our enemies might SERVE HIM WITHOUT FEAR ( Luke 1:74), IN HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS BEFORE HIM, "all the days" of our life ( Luke 1:75). AMEN!
