Food Laws, Sacrifices - What's Up with Leviticus?

Why Leviticus?  Let's be honest, Leviticus isn't the most exciting reading! Sacrifices, priests, food laws, and other rituals too. What's the value of all of this? I this episode, we reflect the purpose of Leviticus, noting that the whole book revolves around the idea of holiness. How can Israel be holy as God is holy? We discuss: -that Leviticus is like a procedures manual for the priests.  -the purposes of sacrifices -the main point of the food laws -and how all of that is intended to mark Israel out as God's holy people.   Want to get more out of your Bible reading?
