Doctrine of Levitical Offerings Doctrine of Levitical Offerings 1. The Levitical offerings were an elaborate teaching aid in ritual form designed to portray the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ. Their purpose was to orient the Jewish individual to God’s plan for phase one and two and teach grace. 2. There is a Scriptural basis for typical (symbolical) interpretation. Heb. 10:1 For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never by the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near. Heb 10:4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. 3. The Burnt Offering Lev 1:2-17 A. ThisiscalledanOLAHQARBAN. B. Moses was given these instructions by the Lord from inside the Tabernacle its completion. 1:1 C. It could be brought from three sources. 1:21. 1). Herd: brought by the wealthy (principle: to whom much is given, much is required) and portrayed the Lord Jesus Christ as the servant of God. (Not trying to buy salvation.) 2). Flock: brought by middle class, portrayed Lord Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God. 3). Fowl: brought by the poor, portrayed the Lord Jesus Christ as the Resurrected One. D. This offering was brought by believers (as were the others). Lev 1:2 uses the Hiphil Imperfect of QARAB which means that the offeror “caused to bring” the sacrifice to obey God’s Word. E. The offering from the Herd: 1:3-9 1). To be a male without physical defect portraying that Lord Jesus Christ was qualified to bear our sins because of no Sin Nature or personal sin. (The word “spot” means a “birthmark” which refers to the Sin Nature; a blemish is something caused later referring to personal sin. The sacrifice was to be without Sin Nature and personal sin.) 2). It was to be slaughtered by the offeror portraying the acceptance of an innocent sacrifice by the believer. 3). Hands were placed on the head of the sacrifice portraying that all sins of the individual were poured onto the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 John 2:2 and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for our only, but also for those of the whole world. (Imputation) 4). The bull was innocent as was Jesus Christ. John 15: 25 they hated Me with a cause. 5). The bull bleeding to death portrays Christ’s suffering for us. John 19:34 (Pierced His side.) 2 6). The animal’s physical death portrays Christ’s spiritual death. 7). The offering was offered on the bronze altar portraying judgment on the cross of Christ. 8). The animal was then skinned portraying that salvation was the beginning of our work. 9). It was then cut into pieces and arranged over the fire. 10). The fire portrays judgment. 11). The head and fat were to be put on the altar portraying that Christ knew what He was doing on the cross and the prosperity of His human soul. 12). This was all done at the altar portraying the fact that all Christ’s saving work was done at the cross. 13). There is no mention of emotion. F. The Offering from the Flock. 1:10-13 1. Could be either a sheep or a goat. 2. The goat had to be a male without blemish as did the sheep. 3. The goat represents sins to be borne by the Messiah. 4. The sheep represents His perfect and sinless humanity. John 1:29 (John the Baptist recognized Him as the “Lamb of God.”) 5. This offering was in effect before the Levitical Offerings. Gen 22 6. This is designed to portray the message of 2 Cor 5:2. For He has made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 7. The method of slaughter was the same as for the bull. 8. The offeror received the knife from the priest. 9. A volitional decision was involved to slay it, indicating God’s volition. 10. This was not a pleasant thing to do as God judging His Son was not a “pleasant” thing for Him to do. 11. Christ’s crucifixion was shocking experience. 12. It was not designed to be pleasant. 13. He went through intense agony. 14. The total wrath of the Father was on Him. 15. God has never given us what we deserve for our sins. Psa 103:10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. 16. What we deserved was saved for the cross. 17. Some of the animal’s blood was sprinkled round about the altar portraying propitiation and the balance was poured at its base portraying Unlimited Atonement. 18. These were also washed. 3 a. The offeror got to wash the entrails and bloody pieces which was a nauseating experience. b. Sins are “nauseating” to the Righteousness of God. c. Our best is but filthy menstrual rags. Isa 64:6 19. The sweet savor unto the Lord portrays Propitiation. 20. The entrails and legs of this offering were to be washed (as was the offering from the herd-not mentioned) portraying that through this sacrifice for all time we are able to be cleansed. John 13:5-11 Jesus vividly pointed out the need for cleansing via washing. 21. The believer cannot go through life without sin. Rom 3:23 For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. 22. The legs and entrails emphasize the inner and overt. – Through confession of sins, an inner cleansing, the outer cleansing is also accomplished. 23. The perfect, spotless sacrifice portrays the only person who went through life without sin. 2 Cor 5:21 24. The blood portrays Christ’s spiritual death on the cross. G. The Offering of Fowl. Lev 1:14-17 1. Could be either a turtledove or a son of a dove (young pigeon.) a. Turtledoves are noted for their loyalty to each other, which portrays God’s grace in salvation. John 10:28- 29 and I give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish; and no one shall snatch them out of My hand. My father, who has given them to Me, is greater that all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. b. Even the poorest could participate emphasizing that money is never to be made an issue in salvation. God’s plan is for everyone and is not related to human viewpoint issues. c. A dove is a member of the pigeon family symbolizing peace and the Holy Spirit. This is seen at the Baptism of Jesus Christ. Matt 3:13-17 d. The birds portray the hypostatic union. (We will see this when we not the manner of sacrifice). e. Both birds were passive in nature indicating Christ’s willingness to go to the Cross. John 8:29 I always do those things that please Him. Matt 27:12 And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, He made no answer. f. The priest performed this sacrifice not the offeror portraying that God presented His Son as a sacrifice. g. The order of sacrifice. 4 a. The priest would wring off its head and burn it (head) portraying that the Lord Jesus Christ’s soul was judged first and found perfect. No personal sin was on His soul. b. Then the blood would be drained out to the side of the altar indicating that His spiritual death is sufficient. c. The crop and feathers would then be removed and taken to the ash pile portraying the Doctrine of Kenosis. No overt glory seen. d. The ashes indicate propitiation of the Father. e. The priest divides the bird (Piel PF + w.c.) but does not sever it, indicating the hypostatic union remained intact on the cross. f. The wings were left intact indicating that Jesus Christ was free to not go to the cross, but did. Matt 27:42ff He saved others; He cannot save Himself He is King of Israel; let Him come down now from the cross, and we shall believe in Him. (Tremendous test to tap His Deity). g. Christ had a singleness of purpose in His life, to do the will of Father. Luke 22:42 not My will, but Thine be done. John 5:30 I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. H. In these three categories of offerings we have portrayed Christ’s person, work, and hypostatic union. The main emphasis of the Burnt Offering is Propitiation of the +R/J of the Father. 4. The Gift Offering. Lev 2 A. It is called the MINCHAH meaning gift. It was a bloodless offering emphasizing the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. B. It takes a perfect gift to satisfy a perfect giver. C. This is part of the same set of instructions from the Shekinah glory that Moses received in the Most Holy Place. Lev 1:1 – Note: Moses was a super-genius and a mature believer; nothing indicates repetition. He possessed phenomenal concentration and recall. D. Categories: 1. Cooked a. Made on a griddle b. Baked c. Made in a pan 2. Uncooked a. Wheat b. Corn 5 E. The offerings emphasize the perfect gift from God to man and suggests the perfect gift from God to man and suggests three unspeakable blessings.

    Temple Shalom Shabbat Morning Torah Study ?Parashat Tzav: What’s So Special About Sacrifices ְיַד ֵ֥בְּר יָ֖הוֶה אֹל־מ ֵֶ֥שׁ ה April 4, 2020 לּ ֹֹֽאמר: ַ֤צו ֶֹֽאַת־אֲהֹר֙ן ְוֶא ת־בָּ֣ניו ל ֹֹ֔אמרֵ֥זֹא ת ַָ֖תֹּורת הֹע ָ֑לה ... Adonai spoke to Moses, saying: Command Aaron and his sons thus: This is the ritual of the burnt offering … The entire Pentateuch (the five Mosaic books) forms a chiasmus. From the perspective of the Israelites in the wilderness, Bereshit (Genesis) looks back to the pre-history of Israel, while Devarim (Deuteronomy) turns to the future, as Moses’ prophetic vision scans the far horizons of hope and expectation. Shemot (Exodus) and Bamidbar (Numbers) are a matched pair, telling the story of the present – Israel’s journey from Egypt into the desert and to the brink of the promised land. This leaves Vayikra (Leviticus) as the central and therefore the most important book (not by accident was it the Jewish custom for many centuries to begin teaching Torah to children by starting with Vayikra). At the centre of Vayikra itself is the so-called “holiness code”, chapter 19, with its great injunction, “Be holy, for I, the Eternal your God, am holy.” Vayikra is largely about sacrifices and the service of the priests. Hence its ancient name, Torat Kohanim, “the law of the priests,” from which we get the Latin- English word Leviticus (“of priestly matters”). - Jonathan Sacks • The book of Leviticus reflects the perception that God’s created world is fundamentally harmonious, good and orderly. • Leviticus understands that boundaries may be wrongfully crossed.

  • Priestly Commandments for Offerings
    Priestly Commandments for Offerings Four Offerings Considered: Burnt, Grain, Sin, Guilt Leviticus 6:8 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 9 "Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt offering. The burnt offering shall be on the hearth on the altar all night until the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it. 10 And the priest shall put on his linen garment and put his linen under- garment on his body, and he shall take up the ashes to which the fire has reduced the burnt offering on the altar and put them beside the al- tar. 11 Then he shall take off his garments and put on other garments and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. 12 The fire on the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not go out. The priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and he shall arrange the burnt offering on it and shall burn on it the fat of the peace offer- ings. 13 Fire shall be kept burning on the altar continually; it shall not go out. 14 "And this is the law of the grain offering. The sons of Aaron shall of- fer it before the LORD in front of the altar. 15 And one shall take from it a handful of the fine flour of the grain of- fering and its oil and all the frankincense that is on the grain offering and burn this as its memorial portion on the altar, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

  • Of Malachi Studies of the Old Testament's Ethical Dimensions
    ABSTRACT The Moral World(s) of Malachi Studies of the Old Testament’s ethical dimensions have taken one of three approaches: descriptive, systematic, or formative. Descriptive approaches are concerned with the historical world, social context, and streams of tradition out of which OT texts developed and their diverse moral perspectives. Systematic approaches investigate principles and paradigms that encapsulate the unity of the OT and facilitate contemporary appropriation. Formative approaches embrace the diversity of the OT ethical witnesses and view texts as a means of shaping the moral imagination, fostering virtues, and forming character The major phase of this investigation pursues a descriptive analysis of the moral world of Malachi—an interesting case study because of its location near the end of the biblical history of Israel. A moral world analysis examines the moral materials within texts, symbols used to represent moral ideals, traditions that helped shape them, and the social world (political, economic, and physical) in which they are applied. This study contributes a development to this reading methodology through a categorical analysis of moral foundations, expectations, motives, and consequences. This moral world reading provides insight into questions such as what norms and traditions shaped the morals of Malachi’s community? What specific priorities, imperatives, and injunctions were deemed important? How did particular material, economic, and political interests shape moral decision-making? How did religious symbols bring together their view of the world and their social values? The moral world reading is facilitated by an exploration of Malachi’s social and symbolic worlds. Social science data and perspectives are brought together from an array of sources to present six important features of Malachi’s social world.

  • Types of the Levitical Offerings
    http://www.biblesnet.com TYPES OF THE LEVITICAL OFFERINGS Introduction. GOD, who knows our frame and remembers that we are dust, has, in His fatherly condescension, from the earliest times, instructed the children of faith by means of pictures, or object lessons. It is so difficult for man, who is a complex being, composed of body, soul, and spirit, to form purely abstract or spiritual ideas; they need, more or less, to be clothed in a material form. Beginning with the first victim offered in Paradise, in the skin of which our first parents were clothed by the hand of God, onward by Abel’s offering, and the long succession of sacrifices through the following ages, the Father was making known by type and symbol the deep things of God, and the precious things of Christ, which could only be spiritually apprehended by the teaching of the Holy Ghost. Sight is threefold - physical, mental, and spiritual. The eye gazes on the type, reason may form its conclusions, but the Holy Ghost alone can communicate the mind of God concerning the truths contained in it. In these types we have the embodiment of the thoughts of God concerning the person, work, and offices of the Lord Jesus Christ. But as the spirit of man alone knows the inward thoughts of man, so these deep and wondrous thoughts of God can only be communicated to us by the Spirit of God Himself (1 Cor. ii. 11). Moreover, as the Word of God endureth for ever, and the heavens and earth may pass sooner than one jot or tittle of the law may fail, we have in these types, in all their minuteness of detail, a record for eternity, imprinted by the Spirit of God on the pages of the eternal Word, for the instruction of the inhabitants of heaven and the universe, throughout the countless ages of eternity, concerning the incarnation, sufferings, atoning death, and priestly office of the Lord Jesus Christ.

  • TITHES and OFFERINGS
    1 TITHES and OFFERINGS A Study guide for Leaders in the Body of Christ BY TIMOTHY II Copyright © 2004 By Timothy II Revised 2004 Web Site: www.Timothy2.org 2 TITHES AND OFFERINGS INTRODUCTION: Giving “Tithes and Offerings” is a very important part of the Christian life. Today there is much confusion about the Giving of “Tithes and Offerings” and because of this, many Christians are leading a defeated life. The reason for leading a defeated life is if we do not Give our “Tithes and Offerings regularly (Faithfully), God will not bless us. Some Churches and Ministries receive “Tithes and Offerings” much like yo-yos. Their income constantly goes up and down because of the inconsistent Giving by Christians. This Study Guide has been written to help clear up the confusion about Giving “Tithes and Offerings”, and to help the ‘Body of Christ’ to fulfill their obligations and become the type of Christians that God would have them to be. God says that when we do not regularly (Faithfully) Give Him our “Tithes and Offerings”, we have become ‘Backslidden’ and need to Repent and return unto Him. Mal 3:7 7 Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? This may be hard to believe, but the Bible states that when we do not regularly (Faithfully) Give our “Tithes and Offerings” to God we are robbing Him! Mal 3:8 8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me.

  • Naso – Bamidbar/Numbers 4:21-7:89
    Naso – Bamidbar/Numbers 4:21-7:89 The Text – Key verses in this parasha 6:1-3 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to the Israelites and say to them: If anyone, man or woman, explicitly utters a nazirite’s vow, to set himself apart for the Lord, he shall abstain from wine and any other intoxicant; he shall not drink vinegar of wine or of any other intoxicant, neither shall he drink anything in which grapes have been steeped, nor eat grapes fresh or dried. 6:13-15 This is the ritual for the nazirite: On the day that his term as nazirite is completed, he shall be brought to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. As his offering to the Lord he shall present: one male lamb in its first year, without blemish, for a burnt offering; one ewe lamb in its first year, without blemish, for a sin offering; one ram without blemish for an offering of well- being; a basket of unleavened cakes of choice flour with oil mixed in, and unleavened wafers spread with oil; and the proper meal offerings and libations. 6:20 The priest shall elevate them as an elevation offering before the Lord; and this shall be a sacred donation for the priest, in addition to the breast of the elevation offering and the thigh of gift offering. After that the nazirite may drink wine. The Context – The verses in plain English In Naso, God lays out for Moses the rules to be followed by Nazirites, people who, in devotion to God, abstain from drinking wine, let their hair grow long and avoid all contact with dead bodies.

  • Vowing Away the Fifth Commandment: Matthew 15:3-6//Mark 7:9-13
    Restoration Quarterly 42 (2000) 193-209. Copyright © 2000 by Restoration Quarterly, cited with permission. VOWING AWAY THE FIFTH COMMANDMENT: MATTHEW 15:3-6//MARK 7:9-13 JON NELSON BAILEY Dallas, TX I. Introduction Religious vows are prominent in ancient Judaism. This study examines the evidence that in the first-century CE a son could make a vow that would keep him from honoring his parents as commanded in the fifth of the Ten Commandments (Exod 20:12; Deut 5:16). This practice, mentioned in Matt 15:3-6//Mark 7:9-13, had the effect of vowing away the fifth commandment. The practice may have been rare and controversial, but it was a phenomenon that could occur in ancient Judaism. Since God required that vows be kept, problems arose when a vow was made that violated the Torah. In this study, I trace the development of such vows within Judaism and show that the NT bears witness to the practice by which a person could make a vow that superseded requirements of the fifth command- ment. I also show that such vows encountered opposition by the rabbis and eventually became unthinkable for pious Jews by the time of the Babylonian Talmud. II. Significant Terms A vow is a promise made in a religious context, usually to God. Vows tend to be promises to perform, or to abstain from, specific actions. In biblical and rabbinic Hebrew, the most common terms for "vow" are the verb rdanA and the 1 noun rd,n,. The corresponding Aramaic terms are the verb rdan; and the noun rdan;.

    Tzav Leviticus 6:1 - 8:36 This translation was taken from the JPS Tanakh Chapter 6 1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2 Command Aaron and his sons thus: This is the ritual of the burnt offering: The burnt offering itself shall remain where it is burned upon the altar all night until morning, while the fire on the altar is kept going on it. 3 The priest shall dress in linen raiment, with linen breeches next to his body; and he shall take up the ashes to which the fire has reduced the burnt offering on the altar and place them beside the altar. 4 He shall then take off his vestments and put on other vestments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. 5 The fire on the altar shall be kept burning, not to go out: every morning the priest shall feed wood to it, lay out the burnt offering on it, and turn into smoke the fat parts of the offerings of well-being. 6 A perpetual fire shall be kept burning on the altar, not to go out. 7 And this is the ritual of the meal offering: Aaron's sons shall present it before the Lord, in front of the altar. 8 A handful of the choice flour and oil of the meal offering shall be taken from it, with all the frankincense that is on the meal offering, and this token portion shall be turned into smoke on the altar as a pleasing odor to the Lord. 9 What is left of it shall be eaten by Aaron and his sons; it shall be eaten as unleavened cakes, in the sacred precinct; they shall eat it in the enclosure of the Tent of Meeting.
