Bible commentary (Jewish sources) - Leviticus

The book of Leviticus occupies the central position among the five books of the Torah, indicating the importance of this book. While a traditional name is Torat Cohanim (Laws of the Priests), this book applied to all Yisrael and contains many lessons for us today. As an American author put it, “The gospel is given in precept in Leviticus” (White 1895, 41). The Tabernacle, with its glorious golden walls, beautifully embroidered curtains and expensive gold-plated furniture is now ready to become the dwelling place of God. The book of Leviticus describes the worship services that took place within the Tabernacle and its courtyard, explaining how we are reconciled to God. Also in the book of Leviticus are important admonitions instructing us to love our neighbor, as found in the precept, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19:18). We invite you to join Dr. Elofer as he reveals important insights from Scripture and Jewish tradition to enhance our understanding of the book of Leviticus.
