THE CEREMONIAL LAWS

SACRIFICE FOR SIN

 

Shortly after the fall of man, human rescue plan was unveiled by "his wife's seed" (Gen 3.15, Gal 3.16).

To enforce the plan, Christ had to die for sinners (John 1.29, 2 Cor 5.21, 1 Pet 3.18, Rev 13.8).

 

The Lord of the believers, the repentant sinners show their faith, SACRIFICE for SIN, faith without works is dead (Heb 11.6, Jac 2.14-20 ).

 

Only clean the victim without blemish, was pleasing to God. They served as the prototype of Christ, pure and immaculate (Gen 8.20, Lev 4.8). It follows that the law distinguishes clean animals from unclean, was known since the fall of man (Gen 8.20, Lev 11.1-23).

 

Initially, the Sin offering forgiveness on a special altar (Gen 8.20, 12.7-8), and after the Israeli withdrawal from Egypt it fall on the altar with Saints-College (Lev 4.1-7). A repentant sinner should be putting their hands on the sacrifice for sin, confess your SIN (Lev 16.21, 4.4) and then kill her. Then his sins were forgiven him and he reconciles himself with God (Lev 24.27-31).

 

In Israel there were special offerings :

for the sin of priesthood (Lev 4.1-5)

for the sin of society (v.13-15 )

for the sin of (v.22-26 )

for the sin of the people (v.27,28,32-33)

The sins of priests and society were in the sanctuary through the blood of the Sin offering, which is sprinkled before the veil (Lev 4.3-6, 14-17).

The sins of the people were in the sanctuary of priests who ate the meat of the Sin offering in the holy place (Lev  4.23-25, 28-30).

OTHER VICTIMS

 

In addition to the Sin offerings, Israel was supposed to bring back other victims, namely :

a) different burnt offering  (Lev 1.1-3,10,14)

b) victim of shewbread  (Lev 2.1-2), giving the cob (Lev 2.12 ), libation of wine (Lev 23.13)

c) different victims of peace (Lev 3.1, 6.7,12)

d) victim service (Lev 5.15, see Matt 5.23-24)

 

The daily sacrifice of the Lamb with the bread an offering and its drink, brought in the morning and in the evening (Num 28.3-8).

Every Saturday brought two lambs with an offering and its drink, bread in the morning and in the evening (Num 28.4, 9-10).

Special sacrifices were required during the Sabbaths, annual holidays and annual Sabbaths (Num 28.11-31).

 

In various cases, the Lord sent fire from heaven in approval of this (Lev 9.24, 2 Par 7.1, Gen 4.4).

 

Aliens and the pagans who are willing to serve the true God, had to obey the same laws of sacrifices (Num 15.27-31, 1 Sam  8.41-43, Mal 1.11).

 

The law of sacrifice was recorded in the Pentateuch.

The act ended when Christ is the TRUE VICTIM, died on the cross :

"And adopt a testament for many days, and in one half of the seven-years-period will stop the sacrifice and offering" (Dan 9.27).

"He took it from the environment and nailing it to the cross" (Col 2.14).
