Holy Scripture

Exodus 38:8

A church father on this verse
“For Moses places the bronze laver in which the priests ought to be washed and enter the holy of holies, because the law of God first commands us to be washed through compunction, so that our uncleanness may not be unworthy for penetrating the purity of God's secrets.”
Gregory the Dialogist, 7th c. — Forty Gospel Homilies, Homily 17
