“Leviticus used to be the first book that Jewish children studied in the synagogue. In the modern Church it tends to be the last part of the Bible anyone looks at seriously.” (Gordon Wenham) Similarly, Hebrews doesn’t really connect with many Christians because they don’t understand its Old Testament basis in Leviticus.
In this module, EBC’s Principal, Rev John Brand, will open up each of these books, showing how interconnected they are and how indispensable they are to a right understanding of the atoning work of the Saviour.
