I am preparing a hand out for Friday which will attempt to do three things:
a)show brief structure of Leviticus; b)what we have done so far (which is up to chapter 10 I think); c)some of the themes we can observe from the remainder.
It is important that we relate this to our present day life (else it becomes an academic exercise - good for the brain but how useful for our souls?) and thus I am interested in how we can relate what we learn from Leviticus to life in the 21st century and for those around us in the pub...
Chapters and Contents, 1 - 7 Five main offerings 8 – 10 Ordination of Aaron 11 – 15 Laws of cleanness 16 – 17 Day of Atonement 18 – 20 Moral Laws 21 – 24 Regulations for priests and feasts, Sabbath Year, Year of Jubilee 26 Blessings and curses associated with covenant observance 27 Offerings vowed to the Lord
