In the 20yrs I have been a believer, this is the best bible study I have ever done. Leviticus is extremely interesting and full of wonderful information to pull the entire redemptive story together and this method of pulling scripture apart is such a great way to study the Bible. After a few of the accompanying videos my entire group just sat speechless over what we had learned the prior week in homework, discussion and video. Highly recommend.

Leviticus is a bit dry but this study reveals some of its hidden jewels.

[Rodney Harvill · Rating 5 out of 5]

Of all the Precept studies I have done thus far, this one has to be the most intense because of the pace. That said, I highly recommend this study. Proper understanding of the New Testament requires understanding of the Old Testament. Proper understanding of the Old Testament requires understanding of the Torah. So many of the issues raised by the Old Testament prophets go back to Leviticus. It is all about being holy. "You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy." What are Christians? We are saints, holy ones in the Greek. Leviticus is full of insights into holiness. My only caution relates to scheduling. Some of the lessons are intense, and it might be prudent to schedule two-weeks of preparation time for them.
