Join us as we study the foundational book of Leviticus as we see God call his people to be set apart as a holy nation.
In this first in our series going verse by verse through the book of Leviticus, we look at the historical and cultural context of the book of Leviticus. We ask, who was the author, who was the original intended audience and what was the significance of the text to them? Then we ask how this text applies to us today. Ultimately, we ask why should we even study such a strange text that seems so irrelevant for us today. We dig into all this and more in this introduction to the book of Leviticus.
In this study, Bible teacher Dave Bigler covers Leviticus 1.2-17. This includes a close look at the Burnt Offering, what it was, how it was performed, and why. Interesting subjects covered are the foundation for the term “scapegoat” as well as “holocaust.”
In this Bible Study, we go verse by verse through Leviticus chapter 2. We unpack the multiple types of prepared Grain offerings instructed by God for the Israelites to make. We also take a deep look at Leaven / Yeast in the Bible as well as why salt was always to be included in the grain offering. Finally, as always, we conclude with an application of this text for our lives today. Join us as we dig deep into scripture!
In this Bible study, we unpack Leviticus chapter three and the Fellowship Offering (also known as the peace offering). The Fellowship Offering was designed to be a thanksgiving offering made in friendship and peace with the Lord. The offering was a cow, goat or sheep (male or female) shared between; God, the priests, and the offerer. While we no longer need to sacrifice animals to say thanks to God there is a lesson to be learned here.
The sin offering (also known as the purification offering) is covered in Leviticus chapter 4 as well as the first 13 verses of chapter 5. In this study, we will look at the first portion, as outlined in Leviticus chapter 4. The sin offering was an offering required when an individual (or group) had sinned unintentionally. The offering atoned for the sin and cleansed them from unrighteousness. What is the application for this for us today? Do we have such an offering for our sin today?
In this Bible study, we look at the 2nd half of the Sin Offering as outlined in Leviticus 5.1-13. The Israelites were required to perform a “sin offering” if they failed to do something that was required, such as failing to give a testimony, dealing properly with ritual uncleanness, or fulfilling an oath. We also look at the “sin offering” as the “purification offering” asking why a woman who just gave birth would be required to give a “sin offering?” A key verse in this passage is Leviticus 5.5 in which the text tells us that confession is key to the process.
