Leviticus in a nutshell to the glory of God

Baffled by Leviticus? Struggle to see how it is a part of the Christian Scriptures?

David Field has posted a blogpost entitled Leviticus – an eight para intro which introduces, summarises and gives to us the book of Leviticus in just 8 paragraphs.

Enjoy David’s summary. So enjoy the book of Leviticus. So enjoy the God of whom it speaks.

The post is, indeed, brief – but not as brief as the sentence I’ve quoted above. Just to make clear!]
