Top Highlights
“THERE is no book of Scripture in which there are more of the very words of God than in Leviticus. He is everywhere the Speaker in it. There are accordingly no fewer than twenty, of the twenty-seven chapters of which it consists, that begin with the words,—‘And the Lord spake.’” (Page v)
“the entire Old Testament is a great prophecy, a great type of Him who was to come and has come.” (Pages 2–3)
“approaching God; the second as to the way of walking before Him unto all pleasing” (Page v)
We heartily commend the book, and would rejoice to be assured that its teachings were heard from every pulpit throughout the land.
