Haggai 2:13

"‘If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with his fold touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any food, will it become holy?’” The priests answered, “No.”"

Key Reflection

This passage highlights that what is considered holy remains distinct and does not defile other items simply through physical contact. It emphasizes the purity of sacred offerings, which, despite coming into physical proximity with common foods, retain their sanctity, teaching about the essential difference between the spiritual and material realms.
