What is Leviticus Really About? Blood, Sacrifice & Atonement in the Bible with Phil Bray

Send us a text

Leviticus is one of the most misunderstood books in the Bible—often skipped or seen as dry, violent, or irrelevant. But what if it's actually a profound invitation to draw near to a holy God?

In this episode, we’re joined by Phil Bray—former butcher, Bible teacher, and author of Leviticus on the Butcher’s Block. Phil’s rare combination of practical experience and theological insight brings Leviticus to life in ways you’ve probably never heard before.

🔍 We cover:

• What biblical sacrifice really involved (and what we get wrong)
• Why blood in the Bible represents life, not death or wrath
• What “atonement” actually means 
• How Leviticus points forward to Jesus as both priest and perfect offering
• How this changes our view of worship, communion, and God’s presence today

If you've ever wrestled with the Old Testament, God's holiness, or the meaning of Jesus' sacrifice, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.
