What priest? That's the point. No priests are needed and rituals have no intrinsic value. A straightforward relationship in love is what is needed.

Thats very nice Nate. But does not answer the question.
I hear what you are saying.

Psalm 51

Hosea 6:5 Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets,
I have slain them by the words of My mouth;
And your judgments are like light that goes forth.
6 For I desire mercy and not sacrifice,
And the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings

Matthew 9:3 But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”


This may be somewhat closer to what I am encouraging bro.


Colossians 2King James Version (KJV)
2 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.

5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.

6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:

7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

Maybe this is a bit to simple in how the question is formatted.

Or are all the priest to concerned with eating and drinking.

No need to pause.
The sun is 6 days ahead of the moon according to a year.
After every 5 yrs there will be a month of growth. A voluntary vow open piety. A window of tithes closed when held by the haughty.
A just man knows an holds onto the 5th yr in hope that he could sit at the table and partake of the fruit.
Yet when he sits he forgets the law.

Hmm....didn't know that about the years. Pretty cool.

Five being the number of His grace, I can see also from this, that after 5 years has hit, He offers another month for the "woman" to become with child and stop having an issue of blood/curse. Peace
