Leviticus
Study GuideLeviticus begins with the people of Israel, Moses their leader, standing around the newly completed tabernacle, overwhelmed with the glory of the Angel of the Lord. Then the Angel of the Lord called to Moses from within the tent. The first word of Leviticus in Hebrew is Wayyiqra – ‘and He called’ and it shows how this book follows right on from the last chapter of the preceding book, Exodus. Leviticus means ‘concerning the Levites’ and as the work of the ancient Levites is explained so the prophesied work of the Great and Divine High priest is being explained.
The Bible will take you through the history of the universe from beginning to end but it can also speak clearly to you about your life: why are you here? How should you live? These study guides are intended to help you read and understand the Bible. They are written with enough depth to satisfy the mature Christian but accessible for someone who is new to the Bible.
In the Book by Book study guides and accompanying DVD, we want to help you experience the joy of meeting Jesus in all the scriptures. The first books in the bible come from over 1500 years before the birth of Jesus, yet you will discover His birth, life, death, and resurrection prophesised there. Jesus himself said that the whole bible was about him (John 5:39).
