摘　　要：Through the book of Leviticus, people will understand the fundamental principles of faith and how to maintain their life to be holy. There are two ideas of sanctification in the book of Leviticus. The first is sanctification which relates to ceremonial laws （purification）, the other is sanctification itself. In this idea, there are two things that must be understood： First, sanctification is called ＂the way＂ if it is related to ceremonial laws [sacrificial of blood （almost like purification）]; the other, sanctification is a ＂progressive work＂ if it is related to obedience to God＇s commands. There is a relationship between Lev. 11 and Lev. 20. Both have Hithpael stem （Lev. 11： 44, 45 and 20： 7） and Lev. 11：44-45 is summarized in Lev. 20： 25-26. The verb qSdag （qadas） or qad^g （qades） in ttithpael stem can be translated as ＂sanctify yourselves＂ or ＂you shall make yourselves holy＂. God asked Israelites to sanctify themselves in two things： doing ceremonial laws （because of sins or when they come to God） and keeping God＇s laws. In the case of Lev. 11 and 20, God asked Israelites to sanctify themselves by keeping His laws as a sign that they have been sanctified by God.
