Meaning of ABLUTIONS

Name given in Heb. 9:10 to the ceremonial washings prescribed by the Law of Moses



Name given in Heb. 9:10 to the ceremonial washings prescribed by the Law of Moses (Lev. 6:27, 28; 8:6; 11:25, 28, 40; 15:5, 6, 7, 11, etc.);

With this washing, and the passage of a period of time, the Israelite worshiper was ceremonially pure from the legal contaminations that he had contracted (through leprosy, contact with a corpse, by seminal emission, menstruation in women, or by contact with those thus contaminated. , etc., and which were an impediment to participating in the activities of the cult), and he was again fit to participate in the cult.

In the Aaronic priesthood, as well as in the Levitical ministry, there was also a provision for washing or ablutions, both for their consecration (Lev. 8:6; Num. 8:7) and in the exercise of their functions (Lev. 16:4 ; etc.). Distinction should be noted here; Aaron and his sons were washed “once” completely by Moses when they were consecrated (Ex. 40:12).

They were then required to wash only their feet and hands in the bronze laver (Ex. 40:30-32). In Num. 19 more details of the purification of the contaminated are given.
In the NT washing has a moral meaning and application.



Embrace your weakness and put your trust in the Holy Spirit. That’s where the real power resides.

Where the Real Power Resides

Charles R. Swindoll
The great apostle Paul was just like you and me. He had a love for God blended with feet of clay. Great passion . . . and great weakness. The longer I thought about this blend, the more evidence emerged from Scripture to support it.
Faith isn’t passive. It’s active. If you don’t believe me, read Hebrews 11.

Shut Up and Get Moving

Steven Furtick
When we’re looking for God to do something big. When we’re waiting to see God bring something new and greater into our lives. Be still. Let the Lord fight the battle for you. Let go and let God.
Trust in Him No matter what you are going through in life, you can trust God to be with you.

Some Positive Thing We Can Look at or Talk

Joyce Meyer
I once read a book that was based entirely on the word. He taught the reader to take each problem in his life, look at it honestly and then say “however,” and find something compensating positive in the individual's life that would put the problem into perspective.
The Bible makes it clear that we need to love each other as God loves us.

Learning the Love Languages

Gary Chapman
Many couples earnestly love each other but do not communicate their love in an effective way. If you don’t speak your spouse’s primary love language, he or she may not feel loved, even when you are showing love in other ways.
Why is it important to understand the distinction of the Spirit? Because He’s the one to whom we relate.

The Voice of the Spirit Within Us

Chris Tiegreen
We don’t understand the mysteries of the relationship between Father, Son, and Spirit, but we do know each has a distinct role in our lives. When Jesus tells His disciples about the work of the Spirit, He explains that the Spirit will hear from Jesus Himself, who in turn has heard from the Father.
