First of all, we can begin with Moses. LEarn what all he had to say about holiness, as represented to the people through the various types and shadows of the priesthood, the laws regarding clean vs unclean, and so forth.
Then we can look thoughout Israel's history, specifically looking for examples from the prophets who arose and rebuked the erring people for unholiness, and called them to BE HOLY.
Finally, we can look to the gospel account of Jesus Christ, and see what He had to say about holiness and purity, and also how He demonstrated holiness of heart, mind, spirit, and action/lifestyle.
Then we look to the NEw Testament epistles and we discover the encouragements and promises of holiness, instructions in practical holiness living, as well as admonitions not to forsake the pursuit of holiness.
The whole Bible is all about holiness, because it is the revelation of a Holy God, seeking a holy people, finding an unholy people, and making a way for them to partake of His holiness.
