The Old Testament book of Leviticus is the sequel to Exodus in that
it deals with a deeper dimension of the Sinaitic covenant, giving
various rules for the life of the Israelites, and for the
sacrifices and offerings to be performed in the sanctuary. It
addresses the question of how the Israelites - human beings - can
live in proximity to the holy God who has promised to dwell in
their midst. In this excellent commentary, Nobuyoshi Kiuchi offers
in-depth discussion of the theology and symbolism of Leviticus. He
argues that its laws present an exceedingly high standard, arising
from divine holiness, and the giving of these laws to the
Israelites is intended to make them aware of their sinfulness, lead
them to hopelessness, and ultimately to destroy their egocentric
nature. To be confronted by the laws in Leviticus is to recognize
the vast distance that separates the holy from the unclean and
sinful, and so to appreciate afresh the grace of God, ultimately
expressed in the life and work of Christ.
