Reading the Bible in 2025: Leviticus
We continue working through the #BibleInAYear. This week we focus on Leviticus, probably one of the harder books of the Bible to read. Fear not, we will get through this book together — and discover it still speaks to us!
To get us into Leviticus, we look at some of the laws laid out in chapter 19. Some of these are inspiring still today. Others seem to come from a far, far away galaxy. What do we make of this?
Note #1: I realize this podcast is a bit closer to 25 instead of 22-23 minutes, but it takes a bit to frame Leviticus in a way that makes sense to us today!
Note #2: If I were to do a truly extended uncut version, I would go into how Jesus’ death on the cross relates to the sacrifices in Leviticus. For another podcast!
