[Record your answers in the workbook provided at the beginning of this course.]
At the end of each book, you’ll have a chance to spend some time reflecting by responding to a series of questions. Organize your thoughts around each guiding question and answer them for the book of Leviticus in your journal.
Objective: To begin to appreciate the main themes and interrelatedness of the Bible, the relevance of its ancient cultural context and the contemporary implications of each of its parts. These questions are to be answered at the completion of the lessons for each book, providing an opportunity to summarize your observations while reading and engaging the exercises and lectures.
- What has this book revealed about God? (Include metaphors, characteristics and the mission of God as it unfolds.)
- What has this book revealed about God’s people, their relationship with God and each other and their role and mission in the world? (Include metaphors, mission, ethics, worship, “living by faith,” etc.)
- How does this Old Testament book anticipate the New Testament? (Include typology, promises, predictions and the overall history of redemption.)
- In what ways has God spoken to you in your journey through this book?
- How would you describe the uniqueness of this book in its ancient Near Eastern literary and cultural context? Take into account the genres of Scripture and comparisons with extra-biblical parallels. Consider the divine and human dimensions of God’s Word. (This essay will take some time over the three Old Testament courses to fully understand.)
