Sea Turtle by Danielle Burford Artmajeur.com |
And if she be not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons; the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make an atonement for her, and she shall be clean. Leviticus 12:8
It's turtledoves. What strange verses to our modern ears. These are thanksgiving and sin offerings (they come as a pair). Why? the explanations never feels satisfactory to me.
PRAYER: I give you thanks, and I request forgiveness. Both are necessary as I come into your Holy presence.
