 2 Birds

Then shall the priest command to take for him that is to be cleansed two birds alive and clean, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop:
And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthen vessel over running water:
As for the living bird, he shall take it, and the cedar wood, and the scarlet, and the hyssop, and shall dip them and the living bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water:
And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the living bird loose into the open field.

>>The Bird that is placed in an earthen vessel and killed represents Jesus incarnation and death.

>>The Bird dipped in blood and set free represents Jesus resurrection and ascension. 

All of this was done in anticipation of Jesus Christ coming to die for our sins.

Reminder: Leprosy is often symbolic of sin in the Bible.



Right Ear, Thumb, and Toe



17 And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering:

Oil a representation of The Holy Spirit

Tip of right ear = His word
Thumb of his right hand = His work
Big Toe on Right Foot = His walk (Note: it is very hard to walk without your big toe).
