Leviticus: A Quick Overview | Whiteboard Bible Study

  • Опубліковано 4 лип 2019
  • Leviticus is a book about holiness: it's a list of rules that the ancient Israelites believed they had to follow in order to coexist with their God. The writers of the Bible believed that long ago, the most powerful being in the cosmos chose to manifest his presence on earth, in the midst of the young nation of Israel. This God was so sacred and heavenly that anything crass, common, profane, or contrary to God would burn up when it came close to him.
    The Israelites believed that because God was "holy" (utterly sacred), then the whole nation of people who lived close to him needed to be holy, too. Leviticus is a book of rules that the ancients believed would help keep them ritualistically pure enough to coexist with this holy God.
    Leviticus may not be the most popular book of the Bible, but if you understand why it was written, you have a head start on understanding the rest of the Old Testament. This video walks through the important themes and high-level structure of this book.
    You can learn more about the whole Bible (especially the reasons why God and Israel were in this tenuous situation in the first place) in my ebook: The Beginner's Guide to the Bible. And if you want to see a shot of the whiteboard, just check out my profile on Leviticus.

    "Strange fire" translates to "unauthorized fire", so what we know is that Nadab and Abihu thought they could tweak some of what God asked for in his Holy commandment, and they were promptly destroyed. That sends the message that the commands of God must be kept Holy, and part of what that means is you CANNOT modify from what He has asked. Accuracy does matter. Saying we can do things just a bit differently is to not revere God as Holy in our hearts.

    For the first time in life I read entire book of Leviticus and I must say it's a really really important book. Very powerful insights to understand what God expects of people. Shallow people may not like it, but anyone who wants a deeper relationship with God must read it.

  • @colinluckens9591

    Absolutely amazing!!.....JUST what I was looking for this evening - an OVERVIEW of the book of Leviticus, which will help me invaluably with reading the individual chapters (which could otherwise have felt a bit like being lost in a maze of precise physical regulations, without necessarily understanding the APPLICATION of it to us as believers under the NEW Covenant)....You have provided us with a clear, concise understanding of the STRUCTURE of the book, along with an explanation of how it is an absolutely ESSENTIAL part of the ongoing story of Israel and their (and our) God and, by implication, of the understanding of how WE OURSELVES can co-exist with Creator of The Universe.
    Thank you, and you've just got yourself a new subscriber!!!👍👍👍😃😃😃 (by the way it's also SO COOL and important to have that very visual DIAGRAMMATIC SCHEME of the whole book behind you all the time, as a sort of frame of reference on which to hang everything you are telling us, and help us REMEMBER it all!)
    This is the first of your "Bible book" videos I have watched, but I may very well look at your others when I happen to be studying the individual books concerned.....Thank you again

    The Bible cannot be appreciated without understanding it’s historical basis and just how real all of these things were. These things happened, they are not myths. Even the very tabernacle itself took hold of Egyptian-style architectural design, reinforcing that these events were not in a bubble secluded from the rest of the world, although they were designed to be sanctified spiritually and thus physically, but they still occurred within the same plane of existence as other contemporary cultures and civilizations. They had a duty to perform, and what we read is their understanding of how God instructed them to follow and obey him.
    Due to their failure, we have a higher priest, one that needs not annual sacrifice as those of the temple or in the tabernacle needed, but by himself given up once, was an atonement not only for the children of Israel, but for the whole of humanity. That sacrifice was God become incarnate through the redemptive blood of Jesus Christ on the cross, the son of God, establishing a more perfect law, through the very word of God incorruptible in Christ.
