21:17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
21:18 For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
21:19 Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,
21:20 Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;
1) Do any churches of today practice this commandment from god? Why not?
2) How could jesus and this god be the same one in the light of this scripture?
3) If god "made" the ugly, and handicapped, A.K.A. "Blemished," why would he shun them from his alter? Why did god draw the line at grotesque and handicapped? Why didn't he say that the priest must be a "Ford Model" with perfect skin and the most perfect "Winsome" face? With no dirt under his nails and no stinky arm pits?
You are not reading your bible correctly. Do this:
Open your bible to Leviticus, turn the book upside-down, spin yourself around three times (counter-clockwise), close your eyes and chant this repeatedly: "Jesus came to abolish the old laws, except the ones about homos".
Now you have the correct "interpretation".
