Book of Leviticus: A Complete Overview For YOU To Understand

Описание: Leviticus Explained: Overview | How a Holy God Lives With Sinful People

Leviticus is often seen as the most confusing and overlooked book in the Bible. But beneath the sacrifices, offerings, and laws lies one central question: How can a holy God live among a sinful people? And even more shocking, why would He want to?

In this opening overview of Leviticus, we unpack the structure of the book and trace its major themes: access to God in chapters 1 through 7, the role of priests as mediators in chapters 8 through 10, clean and unclean laws in chapters 11 through 15, the Day of Atonement in chapter 16, and the call to holiness in chapters 17 through 27. We also explore how Leviticus connects directly to Numbers, Deuteronomy, the Gospels, and the New Testament.

Most importantly, we reveal how the offerings in Leviticus preview the death of Jesus. The burnt offering, grain offering, peace offering, sin offering, and guilt offering all point forward to Christ. Leviticus 16 and the two goats give us one of the clearest prophetic pictures of the cross in the entire Old Testament.

By the end of this episode, you will see that Leviticus is not a random collection of rules. It is a journey toward restored intimacy with God, a return to Eden, and a roadmap for holiness that shapes both private faith and public life.
