Qodesh is the quality of being set apart from the ordinary and devoted to God — the root behind “holy,” “sanctuary,” and “sanctify.” The temple’s inner room was the “Most Holy” (qodesh haqodashim) place.

Holiness flows from God’s own nature: he is utterly distinct, pure, and good. He calls his people to share that set-apart life — “you shall be holy, for I am holy” — not to earn his love but to reflect it.
