Leviticus 14:14 (b) This type is used to represent the work and works of the priest. The blood and the oil on the thumb indicate that all the service of the servant of GOD was henceforth to be dedicated only to GOD. JESUS' whole hands were covered with blood, for He worked only for the Father. (See also Leviticus 8:23; Exodus 29:20).
