I have good news. We serve a holy God who cares for us deeply. But we all have a serious problem. Sin. Our sin separates us from God, but he loves us too much to leave us there. God gave the law to Israel to show them their great need for a savior. He desires for his people to be set apart to Him. We can see how God cares about every aspect of our lives in the detailed requirements of the law. He knows the depths of our wickedness and that our greatest need is Him. So we need a rescuer. He made a way for us to dwell with Him, to be holy as He is holy, and to belong to Him. Ultimately, we find that in Jesus.
