Moses writes Leviticus while the Israelites are in the desert, before they enter the promised land. The book's key thought is stated in Leviticus 11:45 - "be holy, because I am holy." The laws in the book were given to help the Israelites worship and live as God's holy people. Even though the new covenant has freed us from the intricacies of the Levitical law, Leviticus reminds us that every part of our lives is important to God and that we are to love and serve him in holiness.
