a transformative journey
Here is a quote from "Devotions from Numbers" :
"consecrated time
The Nazarite pledge was designed to consecrate a period of time, not just a person. It was a transformative journey, a period of personal and spiritual growth. If, during the period of consecration, a person became unintentionally defiled, they had to start over again. The community, as a whole, would look around and see visible examples of those who had chosen to dedicate their time to the LORD, offering hope and optimism for the transformative power of the pledge.
LORD, show us ways to focus our time on what matters most—you, your coming kingdom, and your passion for saving those who do not know you yet." (p. 66).
