Description
The Book of Leviticus by Gordon J. Wenham is a comprehensive commentary that explores the often-misunderstood book of Leviticus, which has traditionally been viewed as less relevant to modern Christians.
Wenham approaches the text with equal seriousness, examining both its original meaning and its enduring theological value. He draws on studies of Old Testament ritual and sacrifice, social anthropology, and literary criticism to shed new light on the biblical author's intentions.
This commentary not only provides a detailed analysis of Leviticus but also shows how its themes and ideas continue to resonate in the New Testament and contemporary Christianity, highlighting the ongoing call to holiness that remains at the heart of God's message.
