4-25-21 | Mike Baker Bronze Basin | Vintage Blueprint Exodus 30:17-21 The next step before entering the tent required intense ceremonial cleansing for the priests who were to serve in the tabernacle. Great pains were taken to make sure there was absolutely no filth, stain, or impurity of any kind. The priests were to be clean before God. Again, we will point to the cleansing of our sins through the death of Jesus and through our confession (I John 1:9) and how baptism is a picture of this cleansing.
