Synopses & Reviews
This guide provides the exegetical and theological insights preachers and teachers can use to prepare relevant messages from this oft-neglected book of the Bible.
Synopsis
At first glance, the Book of Leviticus seems like barren material for lively preaching. Yet it is one of the most important books of the Old Testament; it describes the religious system of ancient Israel and lays the theological foundation for the Christian gospel.
Holiness to the LORD enables preachers to mine the riches of Leviticus and deliver practical messages on worship, sanctification, and obedience from the text. Following the practical method used in his study of Genesis, Creation and Blessing, Allen Ross places Leviticus within its historical context and traces how the laws, rituals, symbols, and events prepared for the revelation in Jesus Christ. Unlike traditional commentaries, Ross offers ideas for correlating Leviticus with New Testament teachings and for applying the material in expository form.
