Summary
Leviticus is a list of laws found in the Torah, the third book in the Hebrew Scriptures, also found in the Bible. The purpose of these laws is to instruct the people of Israel how to follow God, which things to do, which things to avoid, and how to make offerings for forgiveness of sins in the case of wrongdoing. The laws are specific and vast, describing every area of life, from clean and unclean foods to methods determining whether someone is sick and contagious and methods for purification. The intention of these laws is not to shackle the people of God but to lead them toward the path of life, through dedicating their whole lives to God.
