Leviticus 16 - 17
LeviticusSteve Gregg
Leviticus 16-17 is a discussion led by Steve Gregg on the law concerning Day of Atonement, which is not about going to heaven but rather the earthly purposes of God's people. The holy place referred to in the text is not the sanctuary where the priest entered daily, but the Holy of Holies where the Ark of the Covenant was kept. The ritual sacrifices in Leviticus 16 represent Jesus going away to heaven and offering his own blood, which means that the law on animal sacrifices is temporary.
