Summarized Bible Commentary

Leviticus 6:1-30

Contents: Further directions about offerings.

Characters: God, Moses, Aaron and sons.

Conclusion: Since Christ has «made His soul an offering for sin» we should seek to make restitution to any person we have injured or defrauded, and until we do, we will not enjoy the comfort of His forgiveness of our sins.

Key Word: Offerings.

Strong Verses: Leviticus 6:6; Leviticus 6:7.

Striking Facts: Trespass against our neighbor is trespass against God, because it is an affront to our Saviour who has redeemed us and the injury reflects upon God who has commanded that we should love our neighbor as ourselves.
