Renewed to Honor

Emoji version 🌾||🥖+🧂(🍶) =🔥 Shorter version The main topic is grain offering. All grain offerings can be brought as bread that is unleavened and not sweetened with honey or grain or flour. It should be mixed oil or frankincense or both. Salt is compulsory. Part of this is given to the priests.  The salt was a strange thing. I think it might have been a costly or rare thing. Also they extracted the salt from the sea. It was used as a medicine and for preservation and healing.  Reference   Leviticus 2 Notes Matthew Henry MacArthur : Lev. 2:13 the salt of the covenant. This was included in all of the offerings in 2:4–10; 14–16 since salt was emblematic of permanence or loyalty to the covenant

For the first time in Israel’s history, a well-defined set of sacrifices was given to them, although people had offered sacrifices since the time of Abel and Cain (cf. Gen. 4:3–4). This section contains instructions for the people (Lev. 1:1–6:7) and the priests (6:8–7:38). For a comparison with the millennial kingdom sacrifices, see notes on Ezek. 45; 46.

I have often found it impossible to read through leviticus and a recent conversation with my brother in law lead me to my understanding that I am very unfamiliar with the reason behind various laws. The leviticus redux is used to bring the best of what I understand from each chapter with a plethora (something a single reference) of links and notes as appendix to each chapter. Happy reading
