Leviticus is possibly the most

neglected book in the whole

Christian Bible.

That is understandable when the

reader is pitched immediately into

the details of Jewish ceremony and

ritual first recorded three-and-a-half

thousand years ago. Like a thick

forest on a dark night, we are struggling

to find our way through. However,

if we avoid getting lost in the

detail we will discover much about

God’s care for his chosen people

and we can follow the clear signposts

to the good news of Jesus

Christ—because he is the ultimate

destination of Leviticus. This devotional

commentary’ aims to do just

that.
