April 16
Introduction
Today’s reading focuses on rituals associated with the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), an annual occasion for repentance and forgiveness that remains a central feature of the liturgical year in Jewish tradition. Moses’s brother, Aaron, who was ordained to serve as a priest (see Leviticus 8), is given instructions concerning sacrifices to be made to purify the Most Holy Place.

Leviticus 16:1-19
Today’s Key Verse: Leviticus 16:16a (GNT)
In this way, he will perform the ritual to purify the Most Holy Place from the uncleanness of the people of Israel and from all their sins.
Reflect
What instructions is Aaron to follow before entering the Most Holy Place? What is the significance of performing these rituals? What are the consequences for not heeding these instructions? Are there specific rituals to be followed within your community of faith? If so, why are they important?
Pray
Almighty God, you alone are holy and worthy to be praised. I confess to you my sins and ask that you purify my heart. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those in need of intercessory prayer.
