The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) · Day 268: Rebuilding the Temple (2026) · 25 Sep 2026 podcast

So that could mean the devil himself, or it could mean any kind of accuser, I guess, for lack of a better term. voice-verified

And here is the accuser, Satan, standing next to Joshua the High Priest. voice-verified

And Joshua the High Priest is dressed in filthy clothes. voice-verified

He is not fit to offer the sacrifice in the temple. voice-verified

And this is so important because voice-verified

The recognition for all of us is that in so many ways we are unfit to enter the presence of the Lord. voice-verified

In so many ways that I mean, think about me as a priest and other priests, we're s in so many ways we're we are just like Joshua, the high priest, unfit to uh stand in the Lord the Lord's presence and offer him sacrifice with a pure heart, with a with a good intention as he wants it. voice-verified

And yet that doesn't disqualify him. voice-verified

In fact, what happens is the angel says voice-verified

Will remove the filthy garments from him, and I'll I've taken away your iniquity from you, and I will clothe you in rich apparel. voice-verified

And and he says, Okay, now basically you've been clothed this way, now live this way. voice-verified

And this is so important. voice-verified

This is what every one of us who has been forgiven by Jesus Christ are invited to do. voice-verified

Just like Jesus said to the woman caught in adultery, he says, Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more. voice-verified

And this is almost the uh that's an encapsulation of what is said to Jesus. voice-verified

Joshua, the high priest. voice-verified

Okay, your sin, your iniquity has been removed from you. voice-verified

Essentially, now go and sin no more. voice-verified

Now worship the Lord God in this way of truth and of goodness. voice-verified

And ah, it's just that's what all of us are called to do: to receive the Lord's mercy, to receive his forgiveness, to be made new, and to walk forward away from our sins. voice-verified
