  • Margie Edwards on Leviticus 2 - 9 years ago
    I think the comments have merit but they seem to be written with the view point of law and nothing of grace. I believe the commands God gave not just showed us how live a peaceful life because we can do ll of the "right things " and still miss the point. When i read Leviticus 2 I see definate parallels. The bread of the grain offering was a forthtelling of how Jesus would give His body and the bread we eat in rememberance is the sacrifice that Christ made. Then we have to remember the olive oil was representative of the Holy Spirit. The body amd oil go together like a hand in a glove. Can 't work the same one without the other. I also not those who were to burn the sacrifice. Maybe not the same faces, but don 't forget the high priests was the "prime minister " and the priests did his bidding. Link that to the ones to the crucifixion of Jesus if you will and you will see even in this scripture passage the typology. One more thing i get from this is the honey and the leaven were not to be birned on the altar. The leven represents all that is in us of the world that needs to drop off us. We should let it go instead of sayimg things like, its hard for me. Nothing is too hard for God and in Him ot shouldn 't be for us eother. The honey is the sweet presence of God in our lives when we are doing what he commands, to love the Lord God with all of hearts souls and mind. What we think and bwleive really does affect the way our brains function.
