Leviticus 2 - Laws for Grain Offerings | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to Leviticus 2 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer.

In Leviticus 2 we have the second of the 5 offerings in Leviticus 1-7, the meal offering. This was an offering of fine flour, which talks of the fine character of Christ. We know and love many great people like John Wesley, or Abraham Lincoln, but each of these have their own character flaws. Christ however is someone with no leaven, and of fine flour, he has no character flaws.

This offering was made often along with the previous one, out of gratitude to God. The scriptures tell us “for the joy set before Him, he incurred the cross.”

This was also an offering to be eaten by the priests and the one bringing the sacrifice. So Christ is offered for us, and we are to eat Him. But how do you consume the Lord? We do so by simply believing in Him and being hungry for him.

Christ tells us in Matt 5:6 that “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.” Do you hunger and thirst for Christ? If not, that’s why you are not satisfied.
