Leviticus Overview (Part 1)
Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview, Steve Gregg discusses the Book of Leviticus, which mainly deals with Jewish rituals and practices. The theme of holiness is central to Leviticus, and it contains many laws that pertain to morality and the punishment of wrongdoing. While some of the laws may seem severe by modern standards, they were meant for the Israelites during that time and not necessarily applicable in modern contexts. Ultimately, an understanding of both Leviticus and Jesus can provide a complete picture of the heart of God.
