THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS -- An Outline With ilotes

Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May, 1976

Introductory remarks:

The book of Leviticus is the third book of the Bible. It was written by Moses.

The theme: Fellowship with God -- based upon God's holiness. The key verses are Leviticus 11:44, 45; 19:2; 20:7, 8, 26.

It has a very important relationship to the second book of Moses, the book of Exodus. In Exodus we see in all of the details regarding the Tabernacle that the Lord is preparing � place where He can dwell among His people. See Exodus 25:8. In teviticus the Lord is preparing a �ople with whom He can have fellowship. In Exodus we see that the Lord is holy (Exodus 3:4-6). The holiness of the Lord carries over into Leviticus with the added emphasis that His people must be holy. Only a holy people can have fellowship with a holy God.

Holiness as it relates to God is absolute and perfect. It includes all that He is and does. He is completely without sin and incapable of sin. As holiness relates to us, the people of God, it does not indicate sinlessness. Instead, it means that the people of God are to be set apart to God from sin. The result will be a growth in grace and an increasing deliverance from sin in daily experience. Complete perfection for us will not be attained until the Lord returns.

Levitucus is specifically the handbook of the priests. That is why it has been called Levi-ticus. Aaron and his sons, the priests, were from the tribe of Levi. The rest of the Levites had been set apart by God to assist the high priest and his sons in their work.

Although the book of Leviticus was written for the people of Israel almost 1,500 years before Christ, yet it does have very important significance for us today. We give some of the reasons for the importance of this Old Testament book:

1) Because it is a part of the \�ord of God and is included in the description which Paul gives of the Scriptures in 2 Timothy 3:16, 17.

2) Because of what it teaches us about God -- especially concerning His holiness. 3) Because of what it teaches us about worshipping God and having fellowship with

Him. 4) Because of the way it helps us to understand the far-reaching effect of the

Gospel. It has been called the Gospel of Leviticus. 5) Because of the many times (about 40) that the New Testament writers refer to

it. It would be impossible to understand the book of Hebrews in the New Testament if we did not have Leviticus. Leviticus is also closely related to the book of 1 John because of their common emphasis on fellowship with God.

6) Because of the many revelations of Christ we have in it -- primarily in types. The types teach us about both the Person of Christ and His Work.

7) Because of its prophetic message. We have God's prophetic program for Israel laid out with great exactness in Leviticus 23.

Other reasons could doubtless be given, but these are the main reasons. They should make us realize that we cannot neglect this great Old Testament book with­out suffering great loss for ourselves spiritually.

Two words of caution need to be given and observed if we are to interpret Leviticus correctly:

Page 2: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

The Book of Leviticus -- Page 2

1) It �1aS written primarily for Israel -- not the Church. The Church was not even in existence at that time, and 1I0ses knew nothing about it. Therefore, we are not expected to offer the sacrifices that are described in Leviticus. But the book can be of immense practical value if we are aware of the reasons for its importance as listed on the preceding page.

2) We need tc keep in mind that the Lord is speaking through Hoses in Leviticus to a people who have already been redeemed. The story of their redemption from Egypt and its bondage (a picture of our redemption from the bondage of sin) is told in Exodus 12 . Therefore, the sacrifices which were commanded of the people were not to bring about their redemption, but to make possible their fellowship with God. A person can only be saved once! This fact is carefully guarded even in the types and ceremonies of the Law in the Old Testament. And so, for example, the offering of the sin and trespass offerings do not indicate that the offerer was being saved again, but that he was being r�tored to fellowship.

The OutUne:

1 . The Holy Offerings (Lev. 1-7) .

A. The five principal offerings (Lev. 1 : 1-6 : 7) .

1. The burnt offering (Lev. 1) .

All five of the offerings point ahead to the sacrifice of Christ. They ShO" five different aspects of truth relating to the death of Christ and how Christ thus meets the needs of His people in their relationship with God.

The burnt offering is the only one which was offered completely to God. llothing was kept either for the priests or for the people. It typifies the believer's offering of himself to God in complete dedication and surrender. It illustrates the truth of Romans 12: I, 2 .

Every detail of each one of the sacrifices had to be carefully observed. The only choice that the people had was in determining which of the acceptable sacrifices they could afford to bring. Note that there are three possibilities: 1) A bullock (vv. 3-9) 2) A sheep or a goat (vv. 10-13) . 3) A turtledove or a young pigeon (vv. 14-17) .

2 . The meal offering (Lev. 2). This is translated "meat" in the King James Version, but meal is obviously a better translation because this was the one sacrifice which did not have to do with the flesh of animals. The Old English word, "meat," would correspond with our words, food, or meal, or even bread.

This offering pictures Christ as the Bread of Life (John 6: 35) . He is the only One through ",hom we can have fellowship with God.

3 . The peace offering (Lev. 3) .

As with the burnt offering, so there were three possibilities for the peace offering: from the herd (vv. 1-5), a lamb (vv. 7-11), or a goat (vv. 12-16) .

Page 3: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

The Book of Leviticus -- Page 3

The reasons for offe.ing the peace offering are given in Lev. 7: 12, 16 . The very name of the offering suggests that it speaks of the peace that believers enjoy with God. See Rom. 5:1 and Phil. 4:16 . Throughout the Old Testament the prominent idea in the peace offering seems to be that of thanksgiving. See Reb. 13:15.

4 . The sin offering (Lev. 4:1-5:13) .

In chapter 4 we have four divisions:

1) The sin of the priests (vv. 3-12). 2) The sin of the whole congregation (vv. 13-21). 3) The sin of the ruler (vv. 22-26) . 4 ) The sin of the common people (vv. 27-35 ) .

In Lev. 5:1-13 we are told the kinds of sins which would require the sin offering in vv. 1-5. Vv. 6-13 give the various offerings which would be acceptable:

1) A lamb or a kid of the goats (v. 6). 2) Two turtledoves or two young pigeons (v. 7-10). 3) A meal offering (vv. 11-13).

This emphasizes the need for the confession .2!!!!!. and seeking God's forgiveness. See 1 John 1:7, 9.

5. The trespass offering (Lev. 5:14-6:7).

}�ny attempts have been made to distinguish between the sin offering and the trespass offering. Perhaps the best we can say from compar­ing Lev. 5:1-5 with the whole passage dealing with the trespass offering is this:

1) The sin offering had to do with sins which would render an Israelite unclean, i.e., unfit for fellowship with God -­

even though his sin had not affected other people. 2) The trespass offering had to do with sins that did involve

other people.

Only one sacrifice was permitted: .!.E!!!!. This is the first time in the offerings that such a strict limitation was imposed.

Again -- as with the sin offering -- the emphasis is upon confession and cleansing for forgiveness.

B. � laws regulating the offerings (Lev. 6:8-7:38).

These laws should be read in connection with the passages above which deal with the individual offerings.

1 . The law of the burnt offering (Lev. 6:8-13) .

The law is concerned with two things:

1) The reason for the name of this offering (vv. 9, 12, 13). 2) Row the priest is to be clothed during this offering (vv. 10, 11).

2. � law of the meal offering (Lev. 6:14-23).

In vv. 14-18 we are told hot. the priests were to offer it, and the

Page 4: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

The Book of Leviticus -- Page 4

part that they could eat; in vv. 19-23 we have the use of this when the priest was first anointed for the priesthood.

3. � � .2f.� � offering (Lev. 6:24-30).

The priests are told where the sin offering was to be killed, what they could eat, how the offering had to be concluded, and apecial precautions that had to be taken with the blood.

4. � 1!!. of the trespass offering (Lev. 7:1-10).

Instructions are given concerning how this offering is to be made. V. 7 indicates the similarity between the laws of the sin and trespass offerings.

Included with this law is a summary of things that belonged to the priest from: 1) The burnt offering (v. 8). 2) The meal offering (vv. 9, 10). This follows from vv. 6, 7 where the priest is told what he is to have from the sin and trespass offerings.

5. � � of the peace offering (Lev. 7 :11-36).

The main purpose of this section is to tell the priest what he could eat when the peace offerings were sacrificed.

�: Since the offerings are types of Christ, to eat the offerings teac�les us that as priests we are to feed continually upon Cfiin:r . .. t. Th';.IJ me.�ns to learn of Him, to meditate upon His work for us on the C.oss, and thus to draw our strength from Him.

6 . Summary of this section (Lev. 7:37, 38).

II. The Holy Priest� (Lev. 8-10).

Chapter 8 in particular is related to Exodus 29 -- dealing with the con­secration of the pris::>1:s. In Exodus 29 the Lord told Moses what to do to consecrate the priests; here in Leviticus 8 we are told that they did it.

This section is unique in Leviticus since it is narrative and historical in form. The only other narrative section in Leviticus is Lev. 24:10-13 which tells of the man who blasphemed the Lord's Name.

The priests of the Old Testament give us a significant twofold type: 1) They are types of our Lord Jesus Christ in His priestly work, such as

we have e":l'lained in the New Testament book of Hebrews. 2) They are also types of believers today. We are priests. See 1 Peter

2:5, 9. Therefore this section is full of rich truth which will be most helpful to believers today in giving us instruction concerning our work as believer-priests.

A. � consecration of the priests (Lev. 8).

Three things seem to stand out in the chapter: 1) That which was done � the priests (vv. 1-13).

Page 5: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

The llook of Leviticus

2) That which was done For the priests (vv. 14-26) 3) That which was done £y the priests (vv. 27-36) .

Page 5

All that was done to consecrate the priests pointed to Christ -- the garments, the animals that ,1ere sacrificed, and the blood . Just so it is only in and through Christ that we are qualified to act as priests today .

Note the offerings that were used: 1) The sin offering (vv. 14-17) . 2) The burnt offering (vv. 13-21) . 3) The peace offering (vv. 22-29) .

ll . The consecration of the people (Lev . 9).

Both chapters 8 and 9 teach us how necessary it is for the priest to be right in his relationship to God before he can minister acceptably to others .

The chapter is divided as follo�1s: 1) The preparation for the sacrifices (vv. 1-7) . 2) The offering of the sacrifices (vv. 8-2l) .

a) Aaron's offerings (vv. 8-14) . b) The people's offering (vv. 15-21) .

3) The activities \�hich followed (vv. 22-24): a) By Aaro'l and Hoses (vv. 22, 23a) . b) By the Lord (vv. 23b, 24a) . c) By the people (v . 24b) .

C . � sin of Uadab and Abihu (Lev. 10: 1-7) •

These two sons of Aaron died under the judgment of God because they went beyond "hat God had required of them as priests . Thus, this stands as a solemn lesson that it is just as sinful in God's sight to add to His �Iord as it is to fail in our obedience to any part of it .

D . The conclusion of the consecration ceremonies (Lev . 10:8-20) .

1. The "arn1ng for Aaron and his sons (Lev. 10:3-11).

2. The question regarding Aaron's two remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar (Lev . 10:12-20) .

III . Personal Holiness (Lev . 11-15).

These instructions have special reference to the human body -- pointing out that which is clean and that which is unclean, and, in some cases, hou the people were to be cleansed.

Anything "unclean" made a person unfit for fellowship with God . This meant that they could not bring their sacrifices (except for the sin or trespass offerings) , nor could they participate in any of the holy days as long as they were "unclean ."

These are chapters of great importance since they emphasize the possible ways in which the people of God may become defiled . The physical can and does represent the spiritual. See Isaiah 1:1-20.

Page 6: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

The Book of Leviticus -- Page 6

A . Clean and unclean foocl (Lev. 11). The people could be defiled by eating that ��ich God had forbidden. The emphasis is upon that which they took into their bodies.

B. The cleansi1!& of !! mother (Lev. 12).

The birth of a baby is generally looked upon ae a blessed event . However, in this chapter we see that this rendered the mother "unclean ." She had to go through periods of purification after the birth of each child -- a solemn reminder of the potential for evil when any child is born. All children are "shaped in iniquity" (Psa. 51:5).

C. The laws regarding leprosy (Lev . 13, 14).

Leprosy is a type of sin. It could infect a human body (Lev. 13:1-46), or a garment (Lev. 13:47-59), or even a house (Lev. 14: 33-47) •

The law regarding cleansing is given in Lev. 14:1-32, 48-53. The prominence of "blood" in the cleansing ceremonies points to the blood of Christ as the only way a person can be cleansed from his sin.

D. The cleandng of bodily discharges (Lev. 15).

There are four divisions in the chapter: 1) A man with a discharge (w. 1-18). 2) A woman with a discharge (w . 19-30). 3) The purpose of the chapter (v . 31). 4) The subject of the chapter (w . 32, 33).

The chapter teaches that defilement is characteristic of us -- both men and women -- and that it comas from within. See this emphasis in Matthew 15:1-20. Our defilement raises the possibility that we can defile others . Therefore, we must always be vigilant to detect any evidence of moral corruption in us, and we must seek for cleans­ing .

The sacrifices in Lev . 15 again point ahead to Christ as the only means of cleansing .

Note: By considering Lev . 11-15 together, we can see the many directions from which defilement may come: 1) From that which enters into us -- Lev . 11. 2) From that �lhich comes out of us -- Lev. 12 and 15. 3) From that which is upon us -- Lev. 13 . 4) From our environment -- Lev. 14:33-47.

IV. Th� Holy Day: the Day of Atonement (Lev. 16). CL Lev . 23 :26-32.

This is Yom Kippur.

This is one of the great chapters of the Bible, showing Christ as our Sin-Bearer . Its place i n prophecy as i t relates t o the future of Israel can be seen in the notes on Lev. 23.

There are four main divisions in the chapter: 1) The preparations for the day Cw. 1-5).

Page 7: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

2) The offerings of the day: a) The sin offerings (vv. 6-22).

The Book of Lev;.ticus -- Page 7

b) The burnt offerings (vv. 23, 24). 3) The concluding ceremonies (vv. 25-28). 4) The law for its repetition every year (vv . 29-34).

V. The Holiness of the Blood (Lev. 17).

The importance of this chapter dealing with the blood is indicated by the fact that it is addressed to Aaron, his sons, and the whole nation. See v. 2.

TWo things are emphasized: 1) The only place it can be presented to the Lord: at the door of the

Tabernacle (vv. 1-9). 2) The restriction upon its use (vv. 10-16). It was never to be eaten

as food.

The blood is a theme of great importance both in the Old and New Testaments because of the Vital place it has in the doctrine of salvation.

VI. The !ioly � (Lev. 18-22).

This is a very practical section which deals mainly with warnings for the people and the priests concerning the sins which had characterized Egypt (from which the Israelites had been delivered) and Canaan (the land which the Lord was giVing them). See Lev. 18 : 3; 20 : 23, 26; 22 : 3 3.

The five chapters have two main divisions: 1) Instructions for the people of Israel (Lev. 18-20).

a) They were not to be like the Egyptians or the Canaanites (Lev. 18). b) They were commanded to be holy as the Lord is holy (Lev. 19, 20). Note: These two things give us our definition of what it means to be

holy, or to be sanctified. It is separation from evil , and separation unto God.

2). Instructions for the priests of Israel (Lev. 21, 22). a) Concerning·defilement ·(Lev. 21 : 1-15). b) Concerning physical imperfections (Lev. 21:16-24). c) Concerning the holy things (Lev. 22:1-16). d) Concerning the sacrifices (Lev. 22:17-30). e) Concerning their obedience (Lev. 22: 31-33).

VII. Holy Service (Lev. 23-27).

A. The Holy Convocations (Lev.23) .

These are often referred to as The Feasts of the Lord. They were the days to be observed at specified times eac�year. �cause of their historical and prophetic Significance, the events in this chapter make Lev. 23 one of the most important chapters in the Bible.

After reemphasizing the Sabbath Day and indicating that the following instructions were in no way to set aside what had preViously been given concerning the Sabbath , the special days are indicated. The first two had been established, and looked backward. The other five were now being established , and looked forward.

Page 8: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

The Book of Leviticus - Page 8

The Days and their Biblical significance are as follows: 1) The Passover (v. 2). It remembered their deliverance from Egypt,

but was prophetic of the death of Christ. 2) The Feast of Unleavened Bread (vv. 6-8) . Often linked as a part

of the Passover, this speaks of j:h� fellowsh:i.J? �lhich follows re­demption. The unleavened bread points to Christ, the sinless One, and the prohibitions against leaven stress the importance of separation from sin as a condition of fellowship .,ith God and with His people.

3) The Feast of Firstfruits (vv . 9-14) . The people were thus recog­nizing God's goodness for their harvest and indicating their intention to give it all to Him. Prophetically it looks ahead to the resurrection of Christ Vlho as the Resurrected One was "the firstfruits of them that slept." See 1 Cor. 15: 20, 23: James 1 :18 . Just as the firstfruits of Israel's harvest meant that it ,�as the first of more to come, so the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ was the first fruits of more to come. His resurrection guarantees the resurrection of His people.

4) The Feast of I?eeks, or Pentecost (vv. 15-22) . This also had to do with the harvest, but is prophetic of the coming of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2. Just as there were 50 days between the Feast of Firstfruits and the Feast of lveelts, so there were 50 days be­tween the resurrection of Christ and the coming of the Holy Spirit.

Hote: At this point He leave events which have taken place in the prophetic plan of God and move to those which are still future.

5) The Feast of Trumpets (vv. 23-25). Num. 10 :1-10 tells us that one of the uses Biven to trumpetsin Israel was for the calling of the assemblies. There are two major events yet future which I�ill employ trumpets: a) The rapture of the Church (1 Thess. 4 :16; 1 Cor. 15:52). b) The second coming of Christ to the earth (tlatt. 24 :31). The main emphasis arising out of Lev. 23 would have to be the second of these -- the coming of Christ to reign on the earth.

6) The Day of Atonement (vv. 26-32) . See Lev. 16 for the details. This is the day �lhen Israel will turn to the Lord and be saved. They will experience the fulfillment of such prophecies as Zech. 12 :10-13 :1; Rom. 11 :26, 2 7.

7) The Feast of Tabernacles (vv. 33-43). On this day the Israelites would leave their homes and go out to live in booths, or tents, for one week. This typifies the peace and safety that they will experience during the 11illennial Reign of Christ on earth.

B. The regular ministry of the people (Lev. 24) .

Three things are emphasized in this chapter, and they in turn are typical of the work of the Trinity: 1) To provide oil for the lamps oil, a type of the Holy Spirit

(vv. 1-4) . 2) To provide showbread for the Table -- the bread, a type of Christ. 3) To honor the name of the Lord through obedience to the Law -­

completing the emphasis on the Trinity -- a reference to God, the Father.

All of our "ork is to glorify God, and to be done llith His enabling pOller.

The Book of Leviticus -- Page 9

c. The Sabbaths of the � (Lev. 25).

This chapter has two main themes: 1) The Sabbatic Year (vv. 1-7). 2) The Year of Jubilee -- which was the year following the seventh

Sabbatic Year, or the fiftieth year (vv. 8-55). a) The year described (vv. 8-13). b) The law regarding buying and selling (vv. 14-17). c) The law regarding God' s I�ord (vv. 18-22). d) The law regarding the land (vv. 23-28). e) The law regarding house (vv. 29-34). f) The law regarding people (vv. 35-55).

It is impossible to knm� all of the reasons for such requirements, but the following are some suggestions: 1) The people needed to rest from their work. 2) The people needed to recognize God's sovereignty over their lives

-- which would include His right to tell them hm. to use what He had given to them.

3) The people needed to knmv that, while it was important for them to work, it was not primarily their work that brought in their pro­visions every year. It was the blessing of God. Note the question and answer in vv. 20-22.

Blessings which accompanied obedience were: 1) Liberty (v. 10). 2) Safety (vv. 18, 19). The spiritual importance of these words is applicable to US today.

D. The key.!2. blessing and acceptable service (Lev. 26).

The key is obedience to God (vv. 1 , 2). The two of the ten commandments given in these verses obviously would represent all of the commandments. They emphasiz.e: 1) The necessity of loving the Lord (v . 1). 2) The necessity for resting in the Lord (v. 2).

As to the promised blessings (vv. 3-13), we note: 1) Fruitfulness. 2) Safety and peace. 3) Victory in war. 4) The supply of their needs. 5) Fel1o�,shlp with God.

These are followed with the possible judgments if they were disobedient (vv. 14-45). They would come in phases: 1) Phase #1 (vv. 14-17). 2) Phase #2 (vv. 18-20). 3) Phase #3 (vv. 21, 22). 4) Phase #4 (vv. 23-26). 5) Phase #5 (vv. 27-33). This was actually prophetic of what was going to happen to Israel.

God would judge them to give the land rest and to humble the people (vv. 34-39).

The chapter closes on a note of hope that the Lord would not cast them away forever (vv. 40-46):

Page 10: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

1) The grace of God. 2) The faithfulness of God.

The Book of Leviticus -- Page 10

This is a wonderful chapter on the security that we have with God. He may have to punish His people. but He will not cast them off forever.

E. The law of redemption (Lev. 27).

This final chapter of Leviticus deals with the rights of the people with respect to redeeming that which has been vowed to the Lord. Vowing in the Old Testament was voluntary. It signified that a person was dedicating something to the Lord. Two examples: 1) Old Testament: Hannah's dedication of Samuel. See 1 Samuel 1:11. 2) New Testament: Ananias and Sapphira. See Acts 5:3. 4.

lfuile vows were voluntary. once they were made they became an obli­gation which was binding upon the person who made the vow. See Deuteronomy 23:21-23; Proverbs 20:25; Ecclesiastes 5:1-7. Therefore, the making of vows was a most serious matter.

Sometimes. however. it might be necessary for an Israelite to redeem that which had been vowed to the Lord. This meant that a certain amount had to be paid in order to clear the matter with the Lord. This is the subject of Leviticus 27.

The divisions of the chapter are as follows: 1) The redemption of things vowed to the Lord (vv. 1-25):

a) The redemption of people (vv. 1-8). b) The redemption of animals (vv. 9-13). c) The redemption of a house (vv. 14, 15). d) The redemption of a field (vv. 16-25).

2) Three things which could not be redeemed because they could not be vowed (vv. 26-33): a) The firstborn of beasts -- since they already belonged to

the Lord (vv. 26. 27). Since this applied only to clean beasts. i.e • • those suitable for sacrifice. v. 27 clarifies the matter with respect to unclean beasts.

b) Things devoted to the Lord (vv. 28. 29). The last part of v. 29 seems to indicate that this has to do l�ith things which are under divine judgment.

c) The tithe (vv. 30-33). 3) Conclusion -- of the chapter and of the book (v. 34). Thus. the chapter brings before us at the end the whole doctrine of redemption -- involving as it does the payment of a price. See how this is related to the doctrine of salvation in 1 Peter 1:18. 19; Rom. 3:24; 1 Cor. 6:19. 20; Hebrews 9:11, 12.

Conclusion: What better way could there be to conclude the study of this wonderful book than to remind ourselves of the recurring theme of the book?

See Leviticus 20:7. 8, "Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am the Lord your God. And ye shall keep my statues. and do them: �II am the Lord who 9snctifileth, you."

Bonar: "Throughout this commentary, the truth that saves, and the truth that sanctifies, is set before the reader in a variety of aspects, according as each typical rite seemed to suggest. It may thus be useful to all classes of persons" (Preface).

"There is no book in the whole compass of that inspired Volume which the Holy Ghost has given us, that contains more of the very words of God than Leviticus" (p. vii).

The inspiration of Leviticus is established by the marvelous way the "views of doctrine and practice dovetailll with the teaching of the New Testament. Cf. pp. vii, viii.

"The Gospel of the grace of God, with all that follows in its train, may be found in Leviticus" (p. viii).

"The Ne'l;\I'" Tes"tament h:1s About forty references to its various ordinances" (p. vii i) •

In Leviticus we are concerned to a Rreat extent with types. Why? 1) To teach the truth. 2) To simplify the truth. 3) To impress the truth. 4) To expand our understanding of the truth. Cf. Pp. Vll" ix. (May we not also recognize that types were used, as parables were, to conceal the truth? Cf. Matt. 13:10-17.) "The Epistle to the Hebrews lays dmm the principles upon which we are to interpret Leviticus • • • And the writer's manner of address in that Epistle leads us to suppose that it was no new thing for an Israelite thus to understand the rutual of Moses" (p. xL

-

"The space of a month was occupied in delivering the various ordinances of this Book to Moses. This is proved from Exod. xl. 17, compared with Num. i. 1. • • God took only six days to creation, but spent forty days with Moses in directing him to make the tabernacle -- because the work of grace is more glorious than the work of creation� (p. xv). (Note: The latter part of this paragraph is a reference to what !Vitsius wrote.)

Concerning the contents of Leviticus, Bonar says, II . . .. it contains a full system of truth, exhibiting sin and the Sinner, grace and the Saviour; comprehending, also, details of duty, and openings into ages to come, --whatever, in short, bears upon a sinner's walk with a re­conciled God, and his coversation in this present ,evil l'lorld" (p. xiii).

Unger, Bible Handbook: Genesis is the book of beginnings, Exodus is the book of redemption, Leviticus is the book of worship and 2 holy walk. Its key is holiness -- the idea occurring 87 times. Holiness involves "sacrifice and separation" (p. 106). In the types of Christ we see an emphasis upon both the Person and Work of our Lord Jesus Christ. Cf. p. 106. Types are predictive, prophetic. Cf. p. 108. 10:11; Heb. 9:14.

See Eph. 5:2; 1 Cor.

Keil and Delitzsch: Leviticus continues and completes what the Lord started in Exodus in a twofold way: 1) The last verse of chapter 26 (v. 46) and the last verse of chapter

27 (v. 34) make it clear concerning the content of Leviticus. 2) As to the difference between Exodus and Leviticus,

a) In Exodus we see the purpose of God to be with His people; b) In Leviticus we see the people of God being prepared for

fellowship with Him. Cf. the excellent paragraph on pp. 261, 262. They divide the book into two sections:

I. Chapters 1-16. II. Chapters 17-27. In these, they say, God is: 1) Establishing "an im.ard fellowship on the part of the nation as

a whole and the individual members with Jehovah their God, through the expiation or forgiveness of sins and the removal of all natural uncleanness" (p. 262),

and then 2) "Strengthening and deepening • • • this fellowship by the sanctifi­

cation of every relation of life" (p. 262). In the first we see them entering into fellowship; in the second we see them remaining.

The 1.

general outline they use is as follows: Laws and Ordinances determining the Covenant Between the Lord and Israel (Lev. 1-16). A. The laws of sacrifice (Lev. 1-7).

FellN/ship

B. The consecration of the priests (Lev. 8-10). C. The regulations regarding cleanness and uncleanness (Lev. 11-15). D. The Day of Atonement (Lev. 16).

II. taws for the Sanctification of Israel in its Covenant Relationship with God (Lev. 17-25). A. Holiness of conduct for the people (Lev. 17-20). B. Holiness for the priests and their sacrifices (Lev. 21, 22). C. The Holy Days (Lev. 23). D. Preparations and Punishments (Lev. 24). E. Holiness of the land (Lev. 25).

III. Promises, Threats, and Vows (Lev. 26, 27). Note: The words used in the outline are not the same as used by K & D

in every instance.

Kellogg: He presents three classes of people who have problems with Leviticus: 1) The person who has failed to get any blessing from the book. 2) The person who does not believe that it has any real significance

for today. 3) The person who is troubled by the criticisms of the scholars who,

in some cases, deny its Mosaic authorship and, along with that, its divine inspiration.

Therefore, he proposes to consider: 1) Its origin. 2) Its authority. 3) Its purpose. 4) Its use.

As to its origin and authority Kellogg points to Lev. 1:1 which affirms 1) That it did come from Moses. 2) That it came from Moses, but ultimately from God, and therefore is

divinely inspired. The formula of Lev. 1:1 is found 56 times in the 27 chapters and, therefore, 11may with perfect fairness be regarded as expressin� a claim respecting these two points, '1"hich covers the entire boot,<" Cp. 5).,

Page 14: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

LEVITICUS -- Introductory Material (3)

Kellogg (continue d) : The attempts of the critics to place Leviticus as much as 1,000 years later than Moses is firmly answered by our Lord's un qualifie d references to the Law, and, in particular, His references to the book of Leviti cus. Cf. 1� Matt. 8:4 and Lev. 14:3-10. 2 Matt. 1214 and Lev. 24:9. 3 John 7:32 and Lev. 12:3. The opening words of Leviticus " connect in the closest manner with the prece ding book of Exodus • • • " (p. 18). (Note: The NASB starts Leviticus with the word, "Then."

Kellogg 's outline: I. The law of the offerings (1-7).

The law of the priesthood (8-10). The law of the clean and the un clean The laws of holiness (17�25). II. (9-16)

III. A. For the psople (17-20). B. For the priests (21, 22). C. For the feasts (23). D. For the alien (24). E. For the land (25): the sabbatic year and the year of jubilee.

IV. Conclusion (26, 27): A. Blessings and curses (26). B. Vows and dues (27).

The purpose of Leviticus: "To direct them how they might live as a holy nation in fellowship with God" (p. 20). This, in turn, could be broken down in three directions: 1) "The key-note of the book is 'Holiness to Jehovah.'" Thus, God was the

first to be considered. 2) God gave them a law "which should secure their physical, moral, an d spiritual well-being" (P. 20). 3) "A means te an end; namely, to make Israel a blessing to all nations, in mediating to the Gentiles the redemption of God" (p. 20).

In order to a ccomplish the latter part "Israel should be kept separate from the heathen nations." See p. 20. "The law of Leviticus was intended to effect this preparation of Israel for its worl d-mission, net only in an external manner, but also in an internal w�; namely, by revealing in an d to Israel the real character Qf God, and in particular His 1I!la.pproachable holinuJiI." This was dQne: (P. 21) �1� In the sacrificial system.

In the precepts of the law. In the severity of the penalties. "NQ Qne will deny that this very severity of the law was fitted to impress the Israelite, as nothing else could, with God's absolute intoleran ce of sin and impurity, and make him feel that he could not trifle with God, and hope to sin with impunity" (p. 22). In God's merciful provision for sin. In preparing Israel for the coming of the One Whom they wersto receive the One typifie d by the sacrifices. Much of the Law is typical of Christ, an d thus prophetic of His ceming. Cf. John 5:46; Luke 24127, 44; Heb. 815; 9123-26. (Kellogg sounds a warning against "an unbridled fancy" (P. 23) in the use of types, saying that we need"to follow the intimations of the New Testament" (p. 23). "For the very same New Testament which declares the typical correspondence, no leSB explicityly tells us this very thing: that many things predicted and prefigured in the Old Testament, concerning the sufferings and glory of Christ, were not un derstood by the very pro­

·phets through whom they were anciently made known (1 Pet. i. 10-12). We have then carefully to distinguish in our interpretation between the immediate historical intention of the Levitical ordinances, fer the people ef that time, and their typical intentien an d meaning; but we are not to imagine with some that to prove the one, is to disprove the ether" (P. 24).

present-day use of Leviticus: "A revelatien of the character of God • • • And God has not changed. He is still exactly what,Re-was when He called to Moses out of the tent of meeting er spoke to him at Mount Sinai. He is just as holy as then; just as intolerant of sin as then; just as meroiful t. the penitent sinner who presents in faith the appeinted bloed of atone.ent, as He was then" ( pp. 24, 25). It gives us "the fundamental conditions of true religion" ( p. 25) -- "llhat there is for sinful man no oitizenship in the kingde. of God apart fre. a High Priest and Mediator with a prepitiatery saorifice fer sin" ( p. 25). It gives us "prinoiples whioh should guide human legislatera who would rule aooording te the mind of Ged" ( p. 25). (Hew does Levitious oompare with the Constitutien of the United States, and the laws as they are now enforoed? ) There is a vital plaoe for religion in gevernment,"and, by plaoing the law of saorifioe at the beginning of the beek, it suggests distinctly eneugh that the maintenanoe of right relation to God is funda­mental t. goed government" (p. 26). Netioe oapital punishment,

.eoial legislation. "Leviticus is IDf use to us now as a revelation of Christ . • • The book is thus a treasury of divinely-ohesen illustration. as to the way of a sinner's salvation through the priestly work of the Son of God" ( p. 27). Not all of the types have been fulfilled. Therefore, "Levitious is still ef use to us as embodying in type and figure propheoies of things yet to oome, pertaining to Messiah's kingdom. " See p. 27. What about Israel'. ooming day of atonement? What about the feastef trumpets? What about the feast of ingathering? How about the Sabbatic year, and the Jubilee?

Jamieson in JFB: He shows how the book of Numbers would better be called Levitious beoause it describes the duties of the Levites. In Leviticus we have more said about the duties of the priests, who were Levites, but only a small part of the whele tribe: the family of Aaron.

Concerning the authorship of Leviticus: "Its claim to be the work of Moses is established by the following passages of the Old Testament, as well as of the New: -- 2 Chr. xxx. 16; Neh. viii. 14; Jer. vii. 22,23; Ezek. xx. 11; Matt. viii. 4; Luke ii. 22; John viii. 5; Rom. x. 4; xiii. 9; 2 Cor. v. 16; Gal. iii. 12; 1 Pet. i. 160. (PP. xlii, xliii) .

.

Attempts have been made to depreciate the blood sacrifioes of the OT on the basis of passages like Isa. 1:11-15. But "a candid and full consideration of them would show that the subject of the prophet's denunciations was the conduct of those who adhered rigidly to the lifeless form, while they were strangers to the spirit of the law and the religious import of its institu­tions. Nay, so far were the prophets from undervaluing these, that they enriohed their most captivating desoriptions of the glory of the latter days with figures borrowed from the rites and ceremonie� of the Mosaic economy ( cf. lea. xix. 21; xxx. 29; xxxii. 20; Iv!. 6, 7;

';'lxiv. 11; Jer. xvii. 26; xxxiii. 18, 2�; Lam. i. 4. 10; Ezek. xlv. 15-17; Dan. viii. 11, 12; xi. 31; Joel i. 9; ii. 14-17; Zech. xiv. 16, 20; Mal. i. 6-8, 11)" ( pp. xliii, xliv) .

Chapters 25 and 26 "are prophetioal" ( p. xliv) .

In the Preface the authors of this commentary (JFB) have said about Moses that "next to Jesus Christ" he has "exercised , by his Divine legatien, the most powerful and extensive influence over the progress and the destinies of the human race. The history he wrote, the laws he announced, the doctrines of the Divine unity and holiness, and of the only acceptable mode of worship he taught, have had a close and oonstant bearing on the oause of oivilization, as well as on the interests of true religion; and although they were originally addressed to a peculiar people in a remote age, they contribute still, by_ their essential oonnection with Christianity, to furnish the light whLcn 1S destined to lighten the whole world" ( p. i) .

LEVITICUS -- Introduction.

Db ections which people have: 1 They say that they cannot get anything out of it. 2 They do not feel that it is important for today. 3 Some critics deny it a place in the Word of God. Once we begin to examine its

contents and see the vital truth which it contains, we can understand why the critics want to do away with it.

lli Importance:

1) From Lev. 1:1 (a statement which is found some 56 times in the book) we learn that the book is both:

2)

ba) A bosk of Moses. b Th' t t t' d 56 t' ' 27 ha t ) The Word of God. r lS s a emen 18 use lmes ln c p ers.

These two things indicate its authority and explain why is has been so severely attacked.

There are more actual words of God in Leviticus than in any other book of the Bible. This should make us classify it as one of the most important books in either the Old or the New Testament.

Its relationship to Exodus. Lev. 1:1 shows it is a continuation of Exodus. The NASB even begins with, "Then • • • " a) Ex odus shows God preparing a place where He can dwell with His people and

have fellowship with them. b) Levitious shows God preparing His people so that they will be fit for

fellowship with Him. Leviticus deals both with establishing fellowship and maintaining fellowship. This will be brought out in the outline.

Thus, Exodus is incomplete without Leviticus.

It is of infinite importance in revealing God to us: a) In His holiness. This is the theme of the book: "Be ye holy, for I am

holy." Cf. 11 :44, 45; 19: 2; 20:7, 26; 21': 6, 8.

Holiness is some form is referred to some 87 times in the book. Sanotify is the same word in the Hebrew. Holiness speaks of separation -- separation from, and separati,m unto -- from sin, and unto God.

b) �is hatred of sin.�is is brought out by drastic punishments whioh are prescribed. Note how many sins brought on the death penalty.

c) In His absolute will as expressed in the Law. There is ns dialogue or debate here. No vote of the people. God expresses Himself in absolute authority over His people.

d) In His mercy for the sinner -- that any provision at all should be made for the sinner.

�: "I am the Lord, your God." Cf. 11:44; 18:2, 4, 30; 19:2, 3, 4, 10, 14, 25, 31, 32, 34, 36; 20:7, 24; 23122, 43; 24:22; 25:17, 38, 55; 26:1, 12, 13, 44, 45.

Because of the way Leviticus is referred to or quoted by our Lord, by NT writers. There are 40 references made in the NT to the ordinances of Leviticus.

6) Its close tie with the Epistle to the Hebrews. It would be impossible to under­stand Hebrews without Leviticus.

Page 17: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

LEVITICUS -- Introduction (2)

7) Because of the many revelations of Christ which it contains -- primarily in types. The types point both to � Person as well as to ��.

8) Because in it the Gospel is clearly seen. This book has been called the Gospel of Leviticus.

9) Because of its prophetic significance. Much of it was prophetic when it was writ­ten; some of it still is. Some has been fulfilled; some has net. Among the parts that contain prophecies still unfulfilled are Lev. 16, parts of Lev. 23, and chap­ters 25 and 26 . .!!. prophecy, Leviticus prepared Israel �.lli comine; .!!. Christ.

10) Because of the way this prepared the children of Israel for one of their most important functions in the world: their witness to the Gentile nations. It is essential to remember that their witness required separation.

11) Because of the guidance it has always given to governments -- to Israel as well as to the Gentiles -- as to the laws which bring blessing from God and harmony among people.

But, to sum up the importance of Leviticus, we need to remember that the theme is holiness -- God preparing His people to worship Him and to walk in holy fellowship with Him, a holy Godl

!.h! J!.!! .!!. Types. In Leviticus, probably mere than in any other book of the Bible, we are constantly faced with types. \ .... jf"'"<.--'() ',-\,s �e..o.v-;,",,'S ",,0< v.<' ," <\":\>"-n'I. ... "'� .... 4'''',.., 4", �'1!f'''s '- sow>e.

This is a rich kind of teaching, but we must be careful to guard ourselves against what Kellogg in The Expositor's Bible calls "an unbridled fancy" (p. 23). Types and parables have in common the fact that there are limitations. Why do we have types in Scripture? There are several reasons: 1 � Obviously its primary purpose is to teach. \i\a""I.-f,..u--th b \')0,,1 & 2 It is a means of simplifying the truth. It serves as an illuBtraticm.��'M"\" \V\()O\�\:"(e.-3 It is used to impress the truth upon the minds and in the hearts and liv�"'i'te.tli'�t\-,c,,--\'

people. kif"-S. 4) It will expand our understanding of the truth One special characteristic about types is that they are prophetic. And so, while much of Leviticus had to do with that ancient time, yet much of it alse had to do (and still has to do) with the future. Thus, even from this point of view, the objection that Leviticus is not important fer us today is disproved. Christ is the main emphasis in the types (as stated before) both in connection with His Person (Deity and Humanity) and His work (for the salvation of the world).

"The meat-offerings consisted of fine wheaten flour (vers. 1-3) . or cak;es of such flour (vers. 4-6 ) . or roasted grains as an offering of first-fruits (vers. 1 4-1 6 ) . To all of them there were added oil (vers. 1 . 4-7 . 1 5) and salt (ver. 1 3) ; and to those which consisted of flour and grains, incense also (vers. 1 and 1 5) . Only a handful of each' kind was burnt upon the altar; the rest · was handed over to the priests, as ' a thing most holy' (ver. 3 ) " (K & D, II, p. 292 ) .

OUTLWE OF LEVITICUS

by L. Dwight Custis

V . � Holiness of the Blood (Lev. 17) .

This chapter is addressed to the high priest, his sons, and the whole nation. See verse 2 .

A . The only place it can be presented to the Lord : at the door of the Tabernacle (Lev. 17 : 1-9) .

B. The restriction upon its use: never to be eaten as food (Lev . 1 7 : 10-16) .

VI. The Holy Life (Lev. 18-22) .

A. Instructions for the people of Israel (Lev. 18-20) . See 18 : 2 ; 1 9 : 2 ; 20 : 2 .

1 .

2 .

Prohibited (Lev. 18) . Lev . 20 : 23 .

from being like the Egyptians or like the Canaanites See verse 3 . This prohibition is stated again in

a. The prohibition stated (Lev. 18:1-5) .

b . The abominations described (Lev. 13: 6-23) .

c. The warnings of judgment (Lev. 18 : 24-30) .

Commanded to be holy as the Lord is holy (Lev. 19, 20) . See 19 : 2 ; 20 : 7 , 26.

� I t seems a practical impossibility t o outline these two chapters . There are some things repeated in the chapters, and even repeated from chapter 13 . The Lord intermingles the relationships that His people have with other people within the nation, as well as with strangers. He speaks of their relationship to Himself . He speaks of the personal lives of the people, both as to (1) their inner attitudes and (2) as to their outward bahavior. Scattered through the chapters are references to idolatry and to the occult . One outstanding feature of these chapters is the many times the death penalty was to be imposed upon those who sinned against the laws of God.

Both in chapter 18 and in chapters 19 , 20 the only preventative against such abominable practices as characterized the Egyptians and the Canaanites is continual obedience to the Word of God.

B . Instructions for the priests of Israel (Lev. 2 1 , 22) .

1. Concerning defilement (Lev. 21 : 1-15) .

2 . Concerning physical imperfections, 1.e., "any blemish" (Lev. 2 1 : 16-24) .

Page 135: THE BOOK OF LEVITICUS An Prepared by L. Dwight Custis, May,

3 . Concerning "the holy things of the children of Israel" (Lev . 22 : 1-16) .

This has to do with those parts of the sacrifices of the Israelites which were set aside as food for the priests and their families.

4 . Concerning acceptable and unacceptable sacrifices (Lev. 22 : 17-30) . Note that this section is given to the Israelites as well as to the priests. See v. 18 .

5. Conclusion (Lev- 22 : 31-33) .

LEVITICUS

Theme : Fellowship with God -- based upon God 's holiness .

Key verses : Lev. 11 :44 , 45 ; 19 : 2 ; 20 : 7 , 8 , 26

Holiness as it relates to God points to His absolute moral perfection in all that He is and does . As it relates to us, His people , it does not indicate sinlessness . Instead , it means that � � � apart to God from sin . The result will be a growth in grace and increasing deliverance from sin in daily experience . Complete perfection for us will not be realized until the Lord returns .

The truth of Leviticus follows the truth of Exodus . Exodus deals with the great theme of redemption. In Leviticus we learn that the first concern of God for His redeemed people is that they have fellowship with Him. In Exodus we not only see how God redeemed Israel from Egypt (the greatest Old Testament type of our salvation) , but the book closes with the building of the Tabernacle -- where the Lord was to dwell smong His people . In Leviticus we see the conditions that were necessary if the people were to please God and enjoy fellowship with Him.

Therefore , we can say that in Exodus the Lord is preparing a place where He can dwell with His people; in Leviticus He is preparing His people to have fellowship with Him.

Leviticus is specifically the handbook of the priests . That is why it has been called Levi-ticus . Aaron and his sons , the priests , were from the tribe of Levi . The rest of the Levites were to assist the priests in their work .

The book of Leviticus is more difficult to outline than either Genesis or Exodus since there are some themes that appear more than once in the book . However , the following outline does give the main themes , and it is hoped that it will prove to be helpful under the blessing of the Holy Spirit in understanding this tremen­dously important Old Testament book.

Since Leviticus does deal with fellowship it has a close relationship with the book that deals with fellowship in the New Testament : 1 John .

The Outline :

I . The Holy Offerings (Lev. 1-7) .

A. The five principal offerings :

1 . The burnt offering (Lev. 1) .

2 . The meal offering (Lev . 2) . This is translated "meat" in the King James Version , but meal is obviously a better translation because this was the one sacrifice which did not have to do with the flesh of animals . The Old English word, "meat , " would correspond with our word , food , or meal .

3 . The peace offering (Lev. 3) .

4 . The sin offering (Lev. 4 : 1- 5 : 13) .

5 . The trespass offering (Lev. 5 : 14-6 : 7 ) .

The Book of Leviticus - page 2

B . The laws regulating the offerings (Lev. 6 : 8-7 : 38) .

II. The Holy Priesthood (Lev . 8-10) .

Chapter 8 in particular is secration of the priests. consecrate the priests ; in

related to Exodus 29 -- dealing with the con­In Exodus 29 the Lord told Moses what to do to Leviticus 8 we are told that they did i t .

This section is unique in Leviticus since it is narrative and historical in form. The only other narrative section is Lev. 24 : 10-23 which tells of the man who blasphemed the Lord ' s Name .

A. The consecration of the priests (Lev. 8) .

B . The priests and their work of consecration for the people (Lev. 9) .

C . The sons of Aaron (Lev. 10) .

1 . The sin of Nadab and Abihu (Lev. 10 : 1-7) .

2 . The warning for Aaron and his sons (Lev. 10 : 8-11) .

3 . The question regarding Eleazar and Ithamar (Lev. 10 : 12-20) .

III. Personal Holiness (Lev. 11-15) .

These instructions have special reference to the human body -- pointing out that which is clean and that which is unclean, and, in some cases, how the people were to be cleansed .

A . Clean and unclean food (Lev . 11) .

B . The cleansing of a mother (Lev . 12) .

C . The laws regarding leprosy (Lev. 13 , 14) .

D . The cleansing of bodily discharges (Lev . 15) .

IV . The Holy Day: the Day of Atonement (Lev. 16) . Cf. Lev. 2 3 : 26-32 .

V . The Holiness of the Blood (Lev. 17) .

VI . � Holy L1fe (Lev. 18-22) .

This is a very practical section which deals mainly with warnings for the people and the priests concerning the sins which had characterized Egypt (from which the Israelites had been delivered) and the sins of Canaan (the land which the Lord was giving to them) . Cf . Lev . 18 : 3 ; 20 : 2 3 , 26 ; 2 2 : 33 .

A . Instructions for the people of Israel (Lev. 18-20) .

B . Instructions for the priests of Israel (Lev . 21, 22) .

VII. Holy Service (Lev. 23-27) .

A. The Holy Convocations (Lev . 23 ) .

This is one of the most important chapters in the Bible because of its prophetic significance relating to the work of Christ . It

D . The Sabbaths (Lev . 25) .
