Parashah Kedoshim calls the people to holiness in every aspect of life, grounded in the command, “Be holy, for I am holy.” The instructions span worship, justice, relationships, and compassion for others.
This portion includes the command to love one’s neighbor as oneself, tying holiness directly to how people treat one another. It presents a vision of a community shaped by God’s character, where righteousness is lived out in practical ways.
