Shalom Everybody,
Here's the verses concerning the utensils:
Way. 11:32-35:
32 ‘ And whatever any of them in its dead state falls upon, becomes unclean , whether it is any wooden object or garment or skin or sack, any object in which work is done, it is put in water. And it shall be unclean until evening, then it shall be clean. 33 ‘Any earthen vessel into which any of them falls, whatever is in it becomes unclean, and you break it. 34 ‘Any of the food which might be eaten, on which water comes, becomes unclean, and any drink which might be drunk from it becomes unclean. 35 ‘And on whatever any of their carcass falls becomes unclean – an oven or cooking range – it is broken down. They are unclean, and are unclean to you.
According to verse 32 I know there hasn't been any unclean animals fallen upon my vehicles, but I know I have ran over dead vermin in the past, so wouldn't the wheels of my vehicle become unclean? Therefore transferring to the hubs, axle, springs, frame - the knee bone is connected to the thigh bone and the thigh bone is connected to the hip bone where my rear end is placed in the seat, which is bolted to the frame - - woe-is-me. Also in verse 35 not positive, have not searched out two witnesses on this, but have considered the fact that our oven has had a pork roast in it and the refrigerator might have had pork salad in it, connected to the plastic container that sat on the shelf; albeit before we moved in here. Oh no, we have an oven downstairs too. See what I'm saying? Any input. Sounds like this could be a serious issue....
Any thoughts on how we should view this taking into consideration
Hebrews 7:12:
For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there takes place a change of law also.
Hebrews 9:8-10:
8 the Set-apart Spirit signifying this, that the way into the Most Set-apart Place was not yet made manifest while the first Tent has a standing, 9 which was a parable for the present time in which both gifts and slaughters are offered which are unable to perfect the one serving, as to his conscience, 10 only as to foods and drinks, and different washings, and fleshly regulations imposed until a time of setting matters straight.
Here's just one example
Matt. 8:2-3:
2 And see, a leper came, and bowed before Him, saying, “Master, if You desire, You are able to make me clean.â€
