continual burnt-offering
Exodus 29:42
29:42 continual burnt-offering. In order for an all-holy God to “meet with” sinful people, there must be symbolically this twice-daily sacrifice continually burning at the entrance to the meeting place. Thus is pictured the necessity of daily confession of sin, purged by the payment of sin’s penalty in the substitutionary death of an innocent sacrifice for the guilty sinner, in order to maintain communion with God.
