Lev. 11-17 - of scapegoats and crappy old laws...

The readings - Days 35-37 - Leviticus 11-17

It figures that the time I would fall three days behind in postings (not the readings, though - I've managed to do those each day...) would be the time when I come across some actually interesting stuff in Leviticus.

By way of quick recap before we dive in, here are some of the topics covered by these seven chapters:
  • what to (and not to) eat
  • childbirth
  • loads on leprosy
  • a bit more on health in general
  • making up for stuff (atonement)
