Book of Leviticus

 


Author: Moses.

Date: 1420 or 1220 BC.

Content:  The book of Leviticus was designed to be a handbook for the priests or Levites, hence the name Leviticus. It sets down regulations that were govern the life of Israel in general and specifically to give regulations concerning sacrifice and worship. All the major sacrifices are described as the way they were offered. All of the major festivals and holidays are discussed. There are also special sections devoted to the priesthood and regulations concerning ceremonial matters.

Theme: The central theme of this book is that God has provided a way for atonement to be made by the offering of sacrificial blood. This whole system found its fulfillment in the shedding of Christ's blood as the one great sacrifice for the sins of the world. Leviticus also shows that worship is to be orderly and is to follow a regular pattern.
