Study 8 From The Book of Leviticus Is: Leviticus
12:1-13:46
1. Did the mere fact of being born
a Jew give a child a place in the covenant? See 12:3. Note 1 below, and Dt.
10:15, 16; 30:6. How do the principles
illustrated here apply today?
2. From chapter 13, trace some of
the parallels that exist between the plague of leprosy and the plague of sin.
Notes
1. 12:3. Circumcision had a
twofold significance, namely, identification with God’s covenant people, and
purification from unfitness for such a role.
2. 12:8. Cf. Lk. 2:22-24.
