The Burnt Offering
John Fleck opens up a week of ministry on the 5 principal Levitical offerings, commencing by studying the Burnt Offering. John explained that all five offerings are necessary because they represent different aspects of Christ’s work and person, noting that there is more depth in Christ than can ever be fully comprehended. In examining the burnt offering specifically, John notes the requirements for sacrificial animals: they must be clean (without blemish), costly (according to one’s means), and calm (domesticated). John draws practical applications throughout, stressing that believers today should bring their best to God, just as the ancient Israelites were required to offer unblemished animals.
