👑 Leviticus 7
Leviticus 7 opens with these words: ““‘This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.” The line to keep is Leviticus 7:11: ““‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to Yahweh.” Carry the word “sacrifice” from that verse into the rest of the day.
Leviticus 7 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, ““‘This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.
Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “but the soul who eats of the meat of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that belongs to Yahweh, having his uncleanness on him, that soul shall be cut off from his people.” Leviticus 7 opens with these words: ““‘This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.” The line to keep is Leviticus 7:11: ““‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to Yahweh.” Carry the word “sacrifice” from that verse into the rest of the day.
The line worth learning out loud is Leviticus 7:11: ““‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to Yahweh.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.
What happens first in Leviticus 7? Then try this: Read ““‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to Yahweh.” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
““‘This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which one shall offer to Yahweh.”
