Leviticus
Leviticus is primarily a book of divine law and instructions for worship, written primarily for the priests and the Levite tribe. It details the sacred and practical ways in which the Israelites were to live as a holy people set apart by God. The book heavily focuses on the requirements for various sacrifices, which were necessary for the atonement of sins, and the proper procedures for festivals and religious rituals. A major theme is the concept of holiness, emphasizing that God is holy and His people must strive for holiness in their lives, both in their worship and their ethical conduct.
