Teaching Leviticus: From Text to Message [Mīkstie vāki]

handles the details well while helpfully staying focused on the big picture of the text. Harper has given us a true gift for teaching or preaching through Leviticus! -- Jay Sklar provides us with a framework of understanding the book that is both accessible and highly engaging. With wisdom and warmth, Teaching Leviticus not only provides a resource for understanding Leviticus, but it also gives impetus as to why we ought to preach and teach it.  -- Malcolm J. Gill shows that Leviticus is a vital book for the life of the Church. At its heart is the joyful possibility of life with God, many of the sacrificial rituals expressing this in terms of intimate fellowship. The aim of Leviticus is to foster the holiness of the people of God. And to be holy is also to be joyful. -- Gordon McConville This is a brilliant book! Geoffrey Harper is one of that rare breed an academic abreast of the latest literature and at the same time a practising expositor who is able not merely to write about preaching but to preach most helpfully! -- John Samuel
