Numbers 15:16Meaning & Commentary from the Church Fathers

Even the nations beyond Israel, alongside those from the tribe of Israel, are called to submit to the Lord and to live in accordance with the same offerings and spiritual elevation. This is evident in the proclamation that outsiders should adhere to the same divine laws as the Israelites; there is but one path for all, leading to a close relationship with God the Father. This path is Christ, for as the apostle Peter affirmed, "For there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).
