Overview of Leviticus:
Leviticus is the ________________________ for the Priests of Israel.
The book contains the system of laws, administered by the Levitical Priesthood, under which the Hebrew nation was to live.
Leviticus is the first of what I call the “_______________ use” books in the Bible.
One of the key themes of Leviticus is ____________________.
“I am the LORD who brought you out of Egypt to be your God; therefore be holy as I am holy.” -Leviticus 11:45
Leviticus is a little harder to outline than Genesis and Exodus were.
Outline:
How to offer sacrifices for _________________ health Ch. 1-7
The Levitical Offerings: (On Accompanying Sheet)
“Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.” -John 1:29
Holiness demanded of God’s Priests Ch. 8-10
Leviticus 10:1-3
What a great word for church leaders today as well – “By those who come near Me I must be regarded as holy; And before all the people I must be glorified!”
How to ensure ___________________ health Ch. 11-15
Another example of how even though the civil law of Israel is not binding on Christians today, we can still learn about the heart of God through it.
The Day of Atonement Ch. 16-17
16:29-34
“I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.” -Zechariah 3:9
How to promote ____________________ health Ch. 18-20
This section is basically a deeper look at the Ten Commands given in Exodus 20.
Holiness demanded of God’s Priests Ch. 21-22
This is repeated for ______________________ – God’s expects the priests and the nation to be holy as God is holy!
Calendar of the nation Ch. 23-25
The Feasts of Israel: (See Accompanying Sheet)
Blessings and Curses Ch. 26
Even in the midst of these warnings within the Mosaic Law, we see God will not forget His plans for Israel, based on the _______________________ Covenant
26:40-45
Tithe valuations Ch. 27
This chapter seems odd to modern eyes, but we must remember that if the people didn’t give the tithes God had commanded, the work of the Tabernacle and priests would greatly suffer.
