Biblical Concept: Leviticus Conclusion Verses

Findings:

Consider the Tabernacle / Temple worship system with the Millennial Temple worship system. Both eras are radical in their religious obligations. Both eras were the start of a radical change in the methodology of Divine worship. Both eras radically demonstrate the inability of human religion to approach God’s holy and righteous standards. The Tabernacle / Temple era setup a stark contrast with the various pantheism of local nations. The Millennial Temple era will set up a stark contrast to the Antichrist religion that will sweep the world during the time of the Great Tribulation. Both Divinely instituted eras radically demonstrate the holy and righteous standards of The Triune God of the Bible.

To go from the rigorous Tabernacle / Temple worship system to God permanently dwelling in the Christ-Believer is radical. Careless approach of the veiled mercy seat of the Arc of Covenant resulted in physical death--radical. Christ-Believers have God dwelling in them--radical.

‘God’s religious rules not man’s.’ This is a key conclusion from Leviticus. Almost every verse in Leviticus could have this as a verse title.

Leviticus 11:45 'For I am the LORD, who brought you up from the land of Egypt, to be your God; thus you shall be holy for I am holy.'" (Nation Israel was and is to be a demonstration of God’s’ holiness.)

Leviticus 20:26 ²⁶ 'Thus you are to be holy to Me, for I the LORD am holy; and I have set you apart from the peoples to be Mine. (Nation Israel was and is to be a demonstration of God’s’ holiness.)

Leviticus 1:3-4 ³ 'If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer it, a male without defect; he shall offer it at the doorway of the tent of meeting, that he may be accepted before the LORD. ⁴ 'And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, that it may be accepted for him to make atonement on his behalf.

Leviticus 4:1-3 ¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ² "Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, 'If a person sins unintentionally in any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and commits any of them, ³ if the anointed priest sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer to the LORD a bull without defect as a sin offering for the sin he has committed.

Leviticus 4:13-20 ¹³ 'Now if the whole congregation of Israel commits error, and the matter escapes the notice of the assembly, and they commit any of the things which the LORD has commanded not to be done, and they become guilty; ¹⁴ when the sin which they have committed becomes known, then the assembly shall offer a bull of the herd for a sin offering, and bring it before the tent of meeting. ¹⁵ 'Then the elders of the congregation shall lay their hands on the head of the bull before the LORD, and the bull shall be slain before the LORD. ¹⁶ 'Then the anointed priest is to bring some of the blood of the bull to the tent of meeting; ¹⁷ and the priest shall dip his finger in the blood, and sprinkle it seven times before the LORD, in front of the veil. ¹⁸ 'And he shall put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before the LORD in the tent of meeting; and all the blood he shall pour out at the base of the altar of burnt offering which is at the doorway of the tent of meeting. ¹⁹ 'And he shall remove all its fat from it and offer it up in smoke on the altar. ²⁰ 'He shall also do with the bull just as he did with the bull of the sin offering; thus he shall do with it. So the priest shall make atonement for them, and they shall be forgiven.

Leviticus 6:24-25 ²⁴ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ²⁵ "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, 'This is the law of the sin offering: in the place where the burnt offering is slain the sin offering shall be slain before the LORD; it is most holy.

Leviticus 7:37-38 ³⁷ This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering and the ordination offering and the sacrifice of peace offerings, ³⁸ which the LORD commanded Moses at Mount Sinai in the day that He commanded the sons of Israel to present their offerings to the LORD in the wilderness of Sinai.

Leviticus 9:3-6 ³ "Then to the sons of Israel you shall speak, saying, 'Take a male goat for a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both one year old, without defect, for a burnt offering, ⁴ and an ox and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with oil; for today the LORD shall appear to you.'" ⁵ So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the tent of meeting, and the whole congregation came near and stood before the LORD. ⁶ And Moses said, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded you to do, that the glory of the LORD may appear to you."

Leviticus 9:23-24 ²³ And Moses and Aaron went into the tent of meeting. When they came out and blessed the people, the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people. ²⁴ Then fire came out from before the LORD and consumed the burnt offering and the portions of fat on the altar; and when all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces.

Leviticus 10:1-3 ¹ Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took their respective firepans, and after putting fire in them, placed incense on it and offered strange fire before the LORD, which He had not commanded them. ² And fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them, and they died before the LORD. ³ Then Moses said to Aaron, "It is what the LORD spoke, saying, 'By those who come near Me I will be treated as holy, And before all the people I will be honored.'" So Aaron, therefore, kept silent. (God’s religious rules not man’s.)

Leviticus 10:8-11 ⁸ The LORD then spoke to Aaron, saying, ⁹ "Do not drink wine or strong drink, neither you nor your sons with you, when you come into the tent of meeting, so that you may not die-- it is a perpetual statute throughout your generations-- ¹⁰ and so as to make a distinction between the holy and the profane, and between the unclean and the clean, ¹¹ and so as to teach the sons of Israel all the statutes which the LORD has spoken to them through Moses." (God’s religious rules not man’s.)

Leviticus 11:44-47 ⁴⁴ 'For I am the LORD your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. And you shall not make yourselves unclean with any of the swarming things that swarm on the earth. ⁴⁵ 'For I am the LORD, who brought you up from the land of Egypt, to be your God; thus you shall be holy for I am holy.'" ⁴⁶ This is the law regarding the animal, and the bird, and every living thing that moves in the waters, and everything that swarms on the earth, ⁴⁷ to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the edible creature and the creature which is not to be eaten. (God’s religious rules not man’s.)

Leviticus 14:54-57 ⁵⁴ This is the law for any mark of leprosy-- even for a scale, ⁵⁵ and for the leprous garment or house, ⁵⁶ and for a swelling, and for a scab, and for a bright spot-- ⁵⁷ to teach when they are unclean, and when they are clean. This is the law of leprosy.

Leviticus 15:31-33 ³¹ "Thus you shall keep the sons of Israel separated from their uncleanness, lest they die in their uncleanness by their defiling My tabernacle that is among them." ³² This is the law for the one with a discharge, and for the man who has a seminal emission so that he is unclean by it, ³³ and for the woman who is ill because of menstrual impurity, and for the one who has a discharge, whether a male or a female, or a man who lies with an unclean woman.

Leviticus 16:1-2 ¹ Now the LORD spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they had approached the presence of the LORD and died. ² And the LORD said to Moses, "Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter at any time into the holy place inside the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark, lest he die; for I will appear in the cloud over the mercy seat. (God’s religious rules not man’s.)

Leviticus 16:16 ¹⁶ "And he shall make atonement for the holy place, because of the impurities of the sons of Israel, and because of their transgressions, in regard to all their sins; and thus he shall do for the tent of meeting which abides with them in the midst of their impurities.

Leviticus 16:29-34 ²⁹ "And this shall be a permanent statute for you: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall humble your souls, and not do any work, whether the native, or the alien who sojourns among you; ³⁰ for it is on this day that atonement shall be made for you to cleanse you; you shall be clean from all your sins before the LORD. ³¹ "It is to be a sabbath of solemn rest for you, that you may humble your souls; it is a permanent statute. ³² "So the priest who is anointed and ordained to serve as priest in his father's place shall make atonement: he shall thus put on the linen garments, the holy garments, ³³ and make atonement for the holy sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the tent of meeting and for the altar. He shall also make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. ³⁴ "Now you shall have this as a permanent statute, to make atonement for the sons of Israel for all their sins once every year." And just as the LORD had commanded Moses, so he did.

Leviticus 17:1-7 ¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ² "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and say to them, 'This is what the LORD has commanded, saying, ³ "Any man from the house of Israel who slaughters an ox, or a lamb, or a goat in the camp, or who slaughters it outside the camp, ⁴ and has not brought it to the doorway of the tent of meeting to present it as an offering to the LORD before the tabernacle of the LORD, bloodguiltiness is to be reckoned to that man. He has shed blood and that man shall be cut off from among his people. ⁵ "The reason is so that the sons of Israel may bring their sacrifices which they were sacrificing in the open field, that they may bring them in to the LORD, at the doorway of the tent of meeting to the priest, and sacrifice them as sacrifices of peace offerings to the LORD. ⁶ "And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of the LORD at the doorway of the tent of meeting, and offer up the fat in smoke as a soothing aroma to the LORD. ⁷ "And they shall no longer sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat demons with which they play the harlot. This shall be a permanent statute to them throughout their generations."' (God’s religious rules not man’s.)

Leviticus 18:1-5 ¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ² "Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, 'I am the LORD your God. ³ 'You shall not do what is done in the land of Egypt where you lived, nor are you to do what is done in the land of Canaan where I am bringing you; you shall not walk in their statutes. ⁴ 'You are to perform My judgments and keep My statutes, to live in accord with them; I am the LORD your God. ⁵ 'So you shall keep My statutes and My judgments, by which a man may live if he does them; I am the LORD. (God’s religious rules not man’s.)

Leviticus 18:24-30 ²⁴ 'Do not defile yourselves by any of these things; for by all these the nations which I am casting out before you have become defiled. ²⁵ 'For the land has become defiled, therefore I have visited its punishment upon it, so the land has spewed out its inhabitants. ²⁶ 'But as for you, you are to keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the native, nor the alien who sojourns among you ²⁷ (for the men of the land who have been before you have done all these abominations, and the land has become defiled); ²⁸ so that the land may not spew you out, should you defile it, as it has spewed out the nation which has been before you. ²⁹ 'For whoever does any of these abominations, those persons who do so shall be cut off from among their people. ³⁰ 'Thus you are to keep My charge, that you do not practice any of the abominable customs which have been practiced before you, so as not to defile yourselves with them; I am the LORD your God.'"

Leviticus 19:1-4 ¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ² "Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel and say to them, 'You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy. ³ 'Every one of you shall reverence his mother and his father, and you shall keep My sabbaths; I am the LORD your God. ⁴ 'Do not turn to idols or make for yourselves molten gods; I am the LORD your God.

Leviticus 19:30 ³⁰ 'You shall keep My sabbaths and revere My sanctuary; I am the LORD.

Leviticus 19:36-37 ³⁶ 'You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from the land of Egypt. ³⁷ 'You shall thus observe all My statutes, and all My ordinances, and do them: I am the LORD.'"

Leviticus 20:1-5 ¹ Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ² "You shall also say to the sons of Israel, 'Any man from the sons of Israel or from the aliens sojourning in Israel, who gives any of his offspring to Molech, shall surely be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones. ³ 'I will also set My face against that man and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given some of his offspring to Molech, so as to defile My sanctuary and to profane My holy name. ⁴ 'If the people of the land, however, should ever disregard that man when he gives any of his offspring to Molech, so as not to put him to death, ⁵ then I Myself will set My face against that man and against his family; and I will cut off from among their people both him and all those who play the harlot after him, by playing the harlot after Molech.

Leviticus 20:7-8 ⁷ 'You shall consecrate yourselves therefore and be holy, for I am the LORD your God. ⁸ 'And you shall keep My statutes and practice them; I am the LORD who sanctifies you. (Nation Israel was and is to be a demonstration of God’s’ holiness.)

Leviticus 20:22-24 ²² 'You are therefore to keep all My statutes and all My ordinances and do them, so that the land to which I am bringing you to live will not spew you out. ²³ 'Moreover, you shall not follow the customs of the nation which I shall drive out before you, for they did all these things, and therefore I have abhorred them. ²⁴ 'Hence I have said to you, "You are to possess their land, and I Myself will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey." I am the LORD your God, who has separated you from the peoples. (Nation Israel was and is to be a demonstration of God’s’ holiness.)

You shall not do any work; it is a sabbath to the LORD in all your dwellings. ⁴ 'These are the appointed times of the LORD, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at the times appointed for them. ⁵ 'In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight is the LORD's Passover. ⁶ 'Then on the fifteenth day of the same month there is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD; for seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. ⁷ 'On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall not do any laborious work. ⁸ 'But for seven days you shall present an offering by fire to the LORD.

Leviticus 24:11-16 ¹¹ And the son of the Israelite woman blasphemed the Name and cursed. So they brought him to Moses.

You will thus eat your food to the full and live securely in your land. ⁶ 'I shall also grant peace in the land, so that you may lie down with no one making you tremble. I shall also eliminate harmful beasts from the land, and no sword will pass through your land. ⁷ 'But you will chase your enemies, and they will fall before you by the sword; ⁸ five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall before you by the sword. ⁹ 'So I will turn toward you and make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will confirm My covenant with you. ¹⁰ 'And you will eat the old supply and clear out the old because of the new. ¹¹ 'Moreover, I will make My dwelling among you, and My soul will not reject you. ¹² 'I will also walk among you and be your God, and you shall be My people. ¹³ 'I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt so that you should not be their slaves, and I broke the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect.

Leviticus 26:44-46 ⁴⁴ 'Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, nor will I so abhor them as to destroy them, breaking My covenant with them; for I am the LORD their God. ⁴⁵ 'But I will remember for them the covenant with their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am the LORD.'" ⁴⁶ These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which the LORD established between Himself and the sons of Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai.
