Q

What 2 points come from Numbers 6 and the account of the Nazarite?

A

Any man born in the tribe of Levi was considered holy to the Lord because of his responsibilities for the tabernacle and all the holy articles.

However, any man who wished to be holy and separated to the Lord, even if he was not a Levite, could still take special vows of holiness and become a Nazarite. They were considered separated to God for the time set by their vow.

Q

Name 4 recommended guidelines when reading the OT law.

A

See the Old Testament Law as God’s fully inspired Word.

See the Old Testament Law as something additional built on top of the already existing foundation of the promises and blessings to Abraham.

Don’t see the Old Testament law as binding on you or anyone else in the New Covenant, except where a principal or command has been specifically renewed in the New Testament.

Since Christ fully obeyed and fulfilled the Law, and since we receive his righteousness (imputed to us) when we repent, then God sees us covered with the righteousness of Christ who perfectly fulfilled the Old Testament Law.
