Holiness in the Old Testament or Hebrew Scriptures signifies being "set apart" for God, rooted in His divine nature as perfectly pure and unique. It is a central theme, especially in Leviticus 11:44, 19:2, and 20:26, commanding Israel to be holy because God is holy. This holiness demanded separation from sin and pagan practices.
