Hi, I'm Buck the editor and welcome to BBC Season 3, where we are about to dive into the book of Leviticus.

Now, wait, don't tap away just yet. Hear me out. This season will possibly feel a little different

because the book itself takes a quick departure from the normal narrative format we love so much

so that our main man, Moses, can unpack the laws he was hinting

about in Exodus. There is a bit more repetition in this book, which actually serves a very

important purpose, so listen ahead for that. But because of that, there will be a lot more reading

and then discussion as we dive into the chapters of Leviticus. That will allow this season to have

a much quicker pace, but you

will get more out of this book than you ever imagined as we read every God-inspired word. I know I have.

I'm so excited for you to jump in. So grab your Bible and get ready for the best, maybe even the

first trip through Leviticus.

Welcome to the club.

Welcome to season three of the Bible Book Club.

You might be wondering, why in the world should I read Leviticus?

Well, we wondered that same thing. But we're going to do it for a lot of reasons that I'm going to get into.

And there actually is a reason to read Leviticus, the first of which is all scripture is God inspired, as Paul reminded us in his letters in the New Testament.

And that's why we're going through this Old Testament stuff that we've been going through in Genesis and Exodus.

Hopefully you were with us in those two books.

But just to recap where we were,

the story that we just left behind in Exodus

was the story of how God delivered the Israelites

from Egyptian oppression, then entered into a covenant
