Since these are the words of worship being proclaimed to Elohim in his throne room continually, then holiness must be his chief attribute\u2014not love, mercy, grace, etc. as many teach and believe.<br \/>\nElsewhere, we learn that YHVH made man and woman in his own image (Gen 1:26\u201327). What was the reason for this? One reason is that YHVH wants humans to become a part of his spiritual family as sons and daughters (John 1:12; Rom 8:14\u201315, 23; 9:4; 2 Cor 6:18; Gal 4:5\u20136; Eph 1:5; 1 John 3:1\u20132; Rev 21:7). When the saints receive their glorified spiritual bodies at the resurrection, they will be like Yeshua is in his glorified state, although we don\u2019t have a clear idea of what that means (1 John 3:1\u20132). Man is destined to become part of the God family as the children of Elohim, although no one will ever be equal to him in all his attributes (Isa 44:6, 8).<br \/>\nBecause Elohim wants to have glorified children in his spiritual family who will live with him forever, and because his chief attribute is holiness, is this why he wants man to become holy as he is holy (Lev 11:44, 45; 19:2; 20:7; 1 Thess 4:7; 1 Pet 1:15\u201316; Heb 12:14 cp.
