If a priest's daughter marries a layman [any man who is not a priest], she shall not eat of the contribution of the holy things.
Leviticus 22:12

A priest's daughter doesn't need to marry another priest or even a Levite, but if she marries a non-priest, she can no longer share in the offerings that belong to the priest's family. This is because a woman joins her husband's people when she marries. She is no longer part of her father's household, clan, or tribe. God's blueprint for families is thoroughly patriarchal, and this is not a result of the Fall.

A childless widow or divorced woman in ancient Israel was expected to return to her father's house, but that wasn't a command. By implication, if she had children, she was expected to remain with her husband's people. (See v23.)

A lay person shall not eat of a holy thing; no foreign guest of the priest or hired worker shall eat of a holy thing, but if a priest buys a slave as his property for money, the slave may eat of it, and anyone born in his house may eat of his food.
Leviticus 22:10-11

In #torah, a slave has a higher status than a hireling in some respects. That might seem strange, but it's important not to interpret Scripture through the lens of our own culture.

What messianic Bible Observance is,
What the new covenant says about it,
Why you should do it,
And why I do it.

"Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate Yahweh? therefore is wrath upon thee from before Yahweh."

2Ch 19

Thought for Today: Monday May 13

I have realized that in hard times we learn three things:

We are stronger that we ever imagined!
Yeshua is closer than we ever realized!
We are loved more than we ever knew!
