📚 Historical Context

In the Book of Numbers, God was giving Moses detailed instructions for the Israelites' worship and sacrifices as they journeyed through the wilderness after the Exodus from Egypt.

These rituals emphasized the importance of holiness and regular atonement in the Israelites' covenant relationship with God.
