Separation - Old Testament Teaching on Separation

In Creation –

Genesis 1:4

saw that the light was good,  and he separated the light from the darkness.

2 Corinthians 4:6

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”  made his light shine in our hearts  to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.

Sickness – In Sowing – In Clothiing -

Leviticus 19:19

“‘Keep my decrees.
 “‘Do not mate different kinds of animals.
 “‘Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed.
 “‘Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material.

In Miracles –

Exodus 10:22-23

So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness  covered all Egypt for three days.   No one could see anyone else or move about for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived.

In Exodus –

Exodus 12:42

Because the Lord kept vigil that night to bring them out of Egypt, on this night all the Israelites are to keep vigil to honour the Lord for the generations to come.

Proverbs 3:21-22

My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight; they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. —

God used his wisdom to create the cosmos and all that is in it. Through his discernment, he appointed to each being and to each item its place in his dazzling display of diversity. He has chosen to share that wisdom and discernment with those who reverence him and search for his wisdom. If we will use that wisdom and discernment we will possess the greatest of all jewels and a blessing that will enrich our life.
