The general sketch of the book of Leviticus is Through the tabernacle, with the offerings, and by the priests, Gods redeemed are enabled to fellowship with God, serve God, and be Gods holy people living a holy life, which expresses God. To fellowship with God means to feast with God, to enjoy Christ with God. This is possible through the tabernacle, with the offerings, and by the priests, which for us today are all a matter of Christ. The issue of enjoying Christ with God is that we become Gods holy people living a holy life. This holy living is the issue of the enjoyment of Christ. When we enjoy Christ with God, there is a result, and the result is a holy living, a living in which everything in our daily life is holy. As God’s redeemed people, through the tabernacle, with the offerings, and by the priests, we can be enabled to contact God, to fellowship with God by enjoying Christ, to serve God in Christ, and to be a holy people in Christ living a holy life. The central thought of Leviticus is that Christ is everything in the fellowship, service, and life of Gods redeemed. Dr. C. I. Scofield once pointed out that Christ can be seen in every page of this book. In Leviticus Christ is everything. He is the offerings, He is the high priest, and He is everything in the living of Gods redeemed people. Leviticus, therefore, is a book on Christ and full of Christ. The book of Leviticus can be divided into five ordinances concerning offerings (chs. 1-7), ordinances concerning service (chs. 8-10), ordinances concerning living (chs. 11-22), ordinances concerning feasts (ch. 23), and other ordinances and warnings (chs. 24-27).
