Homeless Sunday#2
J making his way to Jerusalem
10 men cried out to him for mercy
lepers
x necessarily Hansen's disease
skin complaints
OT - dangerous and contagious - unclean
Good news for 10 - leprosy (or whatever) not necessarilly permanent
purification rites to re-enter society
If you get better ...
Lev 14
makes sense
wash, shave, burn clothes
back into village
another 7 days isolation
then shave and wash again
reminiscence of covid - sanitising - isolation
10 men counting the days
some things make less sense
to us (ritual)
However could have an effect (leeches)
10 men knew what it would be like to be on the margins
Physically
many in our society live on the fringes
Homelessness and mental health can push people to the edges
Loneliness, anxiety - access to resources
If you went into infected house - had to bathe
clothes had to be burnt
cast out (Leviticus 13:46)
(Refer to passage)
