Leviticus Videos

What this page covers

Where the videos go in Leviticus

The videos here take Leviticus as a whole rather than one passage at a time, so this is the ground they cover: “Five Ways to Come to the Door”, “Fire on the Eighth Day”, “What May Come Near”, “One Day a Year”, “Be Holy, Because I Am Holy” and “Sabbaths That Stack Into a Jubilee”.

Five Ways to Come to the Door (Leviticus 1–7). Before a single offering is made, five are described: whole burnt, grain, peace, sin and guilt. What matters is who may bring them. A worshipper too poor for a bull may bring birds, and one too poor for birds may bring flour, so the door is never closed by price.

Sabbaths That Stack Into a Jubilee (Leviticus 23–27). Feasts fill the year and rest fills the week, and then the sabbaths pile up: seven sevens of years, and the fiftieth announced with a trumpet. Debts end, slaves go home, and land returns to the family that lost it, because it was never theirs to sell.
