The book of Leviticus has a two-fold mission. Leviticus 1-16 symbolizes the order of the world through sacrifices, purity law, and sacred boundaries, so God's people can acknowledge his presence in their life. The second part extends the belief of holiness through moral laws of sex and social justice, so God's people can be holy, as he is.
