This book attempts to give understanding based on Hebrew Israelite culture, how the Priesthood of Israel operated. It was definitely different from the one based in Roman Catholicism, Christianity and Judaism. When Scripture is viewed from a Hebrew perspective, the culture is distinct from that of Rome's organizations. The Israelites' nation was first led by the Priesthood of Aaron and the Tribe of Levi. Levi, with his brother Judah, were called to visit Isaac, their grandfather. He blessed them and assigned to them two different roles. Levi was taught the law of the Priesthood of sacrifices, whole burnt-offerings, first-fruits, free-will offerings, and thank-offerings. The entire tribe of Levi was set apart for holy use in the Temple of Israel's service and was instructed not to pollute themselves with the Philistines or Gentiles. Judah was called to have Kingship. However, because the Israelites were disobedient and mixed and mingled with the other nations, the Priesthood became corrupted and no longer exists today. As a result, the Israelites awakening to their identity and heritage must be mindful not to join and implement an obsolete priesthood. The Highest YAHUAH said that Israel will lose its heritage which includes how the Levitical Priesthood was set up and worked. We will learn again how it works once the Kingdom of YAHUAH is established.
