Leviticus 20-27 Teaching Bible Teaching

Priestly Laws, Holiness, and Grace in Leviticus

In a recent teaching, Shawn McCraney explored the final chapters of Leviticus, focusing on the laws given to priests and their relevance for believers today. He began by discussing the original role of priests in offering sacrifices, which in the New Testament is extended to all believers as “living sacrifices.” Leviticus 21’s strict requirements for priests highlight purity and holiness, symbolizing the separation between a holy God and humanity’s imperfections. McCraney also addressed the Sabbath, explaining it as a covenant with Israel, not a universal mandate, and emphasized that believers find rest in Christ every day. He highlighted the shift from the Old Covenant of law to the New Covenant of grace through Jesus, noting that Old Testament laws illustrate God’s holiness and humanity’s need for a savior, fulfilled in Christ. McCraney’s teaching encourages believers to reflect on God’s holiness and the grace through Jesus, urging them to live in Christ’s freedom and embrace the rest and completeness found in Him.
