Title: Sacrifice
Description: The background of Exodus is needed for the understanding of the lessons in Leviticus. Exodus records God's giving the Law at Mount Sinai. It tells also of the construction of the tabernacle according to God's directions. Leviticus is a book concerning the worship of God. Worship belongs only to God. He is displeased when worship goes to any other being. In Leviticus, God gives the people of Israel rules for worshiping him at the tabernacle. In addition, he teaches them to live lives that please him. Because the Israelites were God's special people, they were to be different from all other nations. This difference included their worship. - Note to the teacher.
