The Book of Leviticus

The Book of Leviticus is the third book in the Bible. It comes right after Exodus. It was written for the people of Israel after they left Egypt. The name “Leviticus” comes from the tribe of Levi. The Levites were chosen to help with worship and care for the tabernacle.
Leviticus is a book full of rules. These rules were given to help the Israelites live in a holy way. Many of the rules are about worship, sacrifices, and staying clean. God wanted His people to be different from others. These laws helped them remember that they were set apart.
Some parts of Leviticus may seem strange today. There are details about animals, skin diseases, and what foods to eat or avoid. But these rules made sense to the people at that time. They helped the Israelites stay safe and healthy, and they reminded them to stay close to God.
Leviticus also speaks about justice and care for others. It teaches about treating people fairly. It talks about caring for the poor and being honest in business. Even though it is full of rules, Leviticus shows that God wants His people to live with kindness and respect.
Who Wrote Leviticus and When Was It Written?
Leviticus was written a long time ago, over 3,000 years ago. It was likely written during the time when the Israelites were in the desert. This was after they left Egypt but before they entered the land God had promised them. They were living near Mount Sinai. That is where God gave them His laws.
Many people believe that Moses wrote Leviticus. The book says that God spoke to Moses and gave him these laws. Moses was the leader of the people. He helped guide them and teach them what God wanted. Moses did not do this alone. The priests and Levites also helped carry out the laws.
At this time in history, the Israelites were learning how to be a nation. They had just left slavery in Egypt. Now they needed rules to help them live together in peace. They needed to learn how to worship and treat each other.
Leviticus helped them do that. It gave them structure. It told them how to make sacrifices, how to stay clean, and how to care for the poor and weak. These laws were part of God’s way of shaping them into a holy people.
Rules, Repeats, and Rituals
Leviticus is not written like a story. It reads more like a list of instructions. Most of the book is made up of rules. These rules tell the people how to live, how to worship, and how to stay clean. Some parts are very detailed and may seem repetitive.
Many parts of Leviticus use the same phrases again and again. For example, it often says, “The Lord said to Moses,” or “You shall be holy.” These repeated lines help the reader remember the main message. They also show that these rules were meant to be passed down and remembered.
The book includes laws about sacrifices, food, clothes, diseases, and holy days. Each topic is grouped together. That makes it easier to follow. Even though it doesn’t tell a lot of stories, it is still very organized.
Some parts may feel hard to read today, but they had a purpose. The book helped the Israelites learn how to worship and live in a holy way. Its style helped them hear, repeat, and remember the rules.
What Leviticus Teaches Us About God and Worship
Leviticus has many themes that are still important for Catholics today. These themes help us understand who God is and how we should live.
One main theme is holiness. The people were told to be holy because God is holy. That means they were called to live in a way that showed they belonged to Him. Catholics still try to live this way today, by following Jesus and living with love and respect.
Another theme is sacrifice. Leviticus talks a lot about animal sacrifices. These sacrifices were meant to make things right between the people and God. Catholics see these sacrifices as a sign that points forward to Jesus. Jesus offered Himself for us. He is the perfect sacrifice who brings us back to God.
Leviticus also teaches about:
- purity and cleanliness
- care for the poor and weak
- respect for others
- honoring holy days and seasons
These themes help Catholics understand the roots of many Church practices. For example, the idea of confessing sins, having priests, and celebrating feast days can all be traced back to Leviticus. It reminds us that God wants us to live with care, respect, and love for others.
How the Book of Leviticus Is Divided
Leviticus is made up of 27 chapters. It can be divided into a few main sections. Each part has a different focus. These sections help us see the purpose of the book more clearly.
Here is one way to divide the book:
- Laws about sacrifices (Leviticus 1:1–7:38)
These chapters explain different kinds of offerings. They include burnt offerings, grain offerings, peace offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings. - Instructions for priests (Leviticus 8:1–10:20)
These chapters talk about how priests were chosen and trained. They also show how the priests were to lead worship. - Laws about purity (Leviticus 11:1–15:33)
These rules explain what made someone clean or unclean. They include food laws, skin diseases, and bodily health. - The Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:1–34)
This special day was set aside for the people to be made right with God. It was the most holy day of the year. - Holiness laws (Leviticus 17:1–26:46)
These chapters give many rules for holy living. They cover how to treat others, how to worship, and how to live as God’s people. - Final instructions and vows (Leviticus 27:1–34)
The last chapter gives rules about special promises made to God and how to keep them.
These sections may seem very different, but they all work together. They show how the people of Israel were called to live close to God.
Why Leviticus Still Matters Today
At first, Leviticus might seem like a book that does not apply to us. It talks about animal sacrifices, food laws, and skin diseases. But there are still many lessons we can learn from it today.
Leviticus reminds us that God cares about every part of our lives. He gave the people rules for worship, health, work, and rest. Catholics still believe that faith should guide how we live each day, not just on Sundays.
The book also teaches us about holiness. God called His people to be different from the world around them. Today, Catholics are still called to be holy. That means living with kindness, honesty, and love for others.
Even though we no longer follow all the old laws, the message of Leviticus is still clear. God wants us to live in a way that honors Him and cares for others. Leviticus helps us remember that worship and daily life go together.
Leviticus at Mass
Leviticus is not read very often at Mass. But a few important parts are included in the Roman Catholic lectionary. These readings help us understand God’s call to holiness and love.
One well-known reading is Leviticus 19:1-2, 17-18. This passage reminds us to love our neighbor as ourselves. Jesus later repeats this teaching. It shows that even old laws can still teach us how to live today.
Leviticus 13 and 14 are sometimes used during weekday Masses. These chapters talk about skin diseases and how the priests would check for them. These rules may seem strange, but they show the care for health and the role of the community.
Leviticus 23, which talks about feast days and holy times, is also used in some weekday readings. It helps remind us to set aside time for God.
Though it is not read often, Leviticus still helps us grow in faith when it does appear at Mass. Click on a link below for more information about a specific reading.
6th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B
When Someone Was Sick
In Leviticus 13:1-2, 44-46, God gives instructions to the priests about how to handle skin diseases. If someone had signs of a serious skin problem, the priest would check them. If the disease was bad, the person was called unclean. This was not to shame them, but to protect the rest of the community.
The person had to live alone outside the camp until they got better. They also had to warn others by calling out that they were unclean. This may sound harsh, but it was part of keeping everyone safe. It also showed how serious sin and illness were seen in the community. Later, Jesus would bring healing to people who were left out like this.
7th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year A
Love Your Neighbor
In Leviticus 19:1-2, 17-18, God tells His people to be holy because He is holy. That means living in a way that shows love, fairness, and respect. The people are reminded not to hold hate in their hearts or seek revenge. Instead, they are called to help one another do what is right.
The reading ends with a simple command: love your neighbor as yourself. This teaching is one of the most important in the whole Bible. Jesus later repeats it in His own words. It reminds us that holiness is not just about prayer or worship, but also how we treat each other every day.
It also appears a few time in the weekday readings:
- Monday of the 1st Week of Lent – Leviticus 19:1-2, 11-18: Call to Holiness and Love
- Friday of the 17th Week in Ordinary Time I – Leviticus 23:1, 4-11, 15-16, 27, 34b-37: Festivals of the Lord
- Saturday of the 17th Week in Ordinary Time I – Leviticus 25:1, 8-17: The Year of Jubilee

Leviticus and the Mass: A Connection Across Time
In this episode of the Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz begins reading the book of Leviticus. He explains that Leviticus chapter 1 starts with rules for burnt offerings. There is no long introduction. It gets right into worship.
Fr. Mike says worship in Leviticus is about offering something to God. The person brings an animal, and the priest pours out its blood on the altar. This shows that the life of the animal is given to God.
He connects this to the Mass. In the Mass, we also offer a sacrifice—Jesus. When the priest lifts up the Eucharist and says, “This is my Body” and “This is my Blood,” we are offering Jesus to the Father.
Fr. Mike says Leviticus helps us understand what happens at Mass. God taught His people how to worship back then. And He still calls us to worship today. Leviticus matters because it points us to the meaning of the Mass.
Why Leviticus Matters: Worship the Way God Asked
In this episode of the Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus chapters 2 and 3. These chapters describe the cereal offering and the peace offering. They show how God asked His people to worship Him.
Fr. Mike says these offerings were part of God’s plan. They were not random. God told His people how to worship Him in a way that pleased Him.
Fr. Mike reminds us that God still asks us to worship in a certain way today. Now, we worship through the Mass. Just like in Leviticus, we don’t decide how to worship on our own. We follow what God has asked.
Leviticus teaches us that worship is important. It matters how we worship. God has given us a way. And Fr. Mike says that way is a gift.
The Gift of Forgiveness
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz explains the sin offering from Leviticus chapter 4. He says this kind of offering was for when someone sinned without meaning to. It helped the people say sorry to God in the way God asked.
Fr. Mike talks about how detailed the steps are. The person brings an animal, places a hand on its head, and then the priest offers it to God. Blood is sprinkled, and the fat is burned. The rest is taken outside the camp and burned there.
Fr. Mike says this shows how serious sin is. But it also shows that God wants to forgive. He gave His people a way to come back to Him. That’s why Leviticus matters.
Fr. Mike reminds us that God still wants us to be close to Him. Today, we don’t offer animals. We go to Jesus. But Leviticus helps us understand that forgiveness is a gift.
The Gift of Giving What You Can
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about how Leviticus chapter 5 shows God’s mercy. He explains that when someone sinned, they had to bring a sin offering. The type of offering depended on who the person was. A leader had to offer more than a regular person. This is because their actions affected more people.
Fr. Mike says that even if someone was poor, God made a way for them too. If they could not afford a goat or birds, they could offer flour. God did not reject small offerings. He wanted people to give what they had. That showed their sorrow and trust in Him.
Fr. Mike reminds us that God is kind. He doesn’t ask for more than we can give. He just wants us to offer something. Even if it’s small. Leviticus teaches that God is ready to forgive, and He always makes a way for us to return to Him.
Making Things Right with God and Others
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz explains that Leviticus chapter 6 talks about two main things—making things right when we do wrong, and how priests offer sacrifices.
If someone steals, lies, or hurts someone, they must fix the wrong. Fr. Mike points out they must return what was taken and add more to it. Then they bring a guilt offering to the Lord. This shows that sin is not just against others—it’s also against God.
Fr. Mike also talks about the daily duties of the priests. They must keep the fire on the altar burning all the time. They offer burnt offerings and cereal offerings. They wear special clothes and handle things in a clean way.
Fr. Mike says Leviticus teaches us that worship is serious. It involves honesty, sacrifice, and care. God shows us how to treat others and how to worship Him the right way.
How God’s People Worship and Share
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 7. He explains the rules for guilt offerings and peace offerings. These are ways God’s people show thanks or say sorry.
Fr. Mike says the guilt offering is holy. Only the priests can eat it, and they must eat it in a clean place. It’s not just about giving something—it’s also about following God’s instructions.
He also talks about peace offerings. These are shared meals with God. People bring bread and meat. Some parts are burned, some are given to the priests, and some are eaten by the one offering it. But the food must be eaten soon. If someone eats it while unclean or waits too long, it is wrong.
Fr. Mike reminds us that Leviticus teaches respect. Worship is not casual. It matters how we treat what belongs to God.
How Priests Were Set Apart
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz explains Leviticus chapter 8. He says this chapter is about ordaining priests. God chose Aaron and his sons to serve as priests. They came from the tribe of Levi. That’s why the book is called Leviticus.
Fr. Mike says that before the golden calf, all fathers were like priests for their families. But after the people worshiped the calf, the tribe of Levi stayed faithful. So God gave them the job of being priests for the whole people.
Leviticus 8 shows how Aaron and his sons were set apart. Moses washed them, dressed them, anointed them, and offered special sacrifices. Fr. Mike says these steps show that worship matters. It must be done how God wants.
Fr. Mike reminds us that real worship is not about what we like. It’s about giving God what He asks for. Leviticus helps us see that clearly.
Worship That Brings Us Close to God
In this episode of The Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus chapter 9. He explains that this chapter shows the priests offering their first sacrifices. Moses tells Aaron and his sons what to do. They offer sin offerings, burnt offerings, and peace offerings.
Fr. Mike says the people watch as Aaron follows God’s commands. After the offerings are made, God’s glory appears. Fire comes from the Lord and burns up the offering on the altar. The people see this and fall on their faces.
Fr. Mike points out that Leviticus shows how worship should be done with care. It matters that we listen to God and do things His way. The offerings are not just symbols. They are real acts that bring people closer to God.
This chapter helps us understand how serious and beautiful worship can be when we follow God’s plan.
Taking God Seriously
In this episode of The Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz shares more about why Leviticus is important. He says some people think Leviticus is boring or too repetitive. But it’s really about God’s holiness. Fr. Mike explains that holiness means being set apart. God is completely set apart. He is holy.
Fr. Mike talks about the story in Leviticus 10 where Aaron’s sons, Nadab and Abihu, offer fire that God did not ask for. Because of this, they die. Fr. Mike says this shows how serious it is to follow God’s way. We should not do worship our own way. We must do what God says.
He reminds us that in the Mass and in prayer, we are stepping into God’s presence. We should take that seriously. Not with fear, but with deep respect. God is holy. And He still invites us close.
Be Holy, Because God Is Holy
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz gives a short reflection on Leviticus 11. He says the chapter teaches us to be holy like God is holy. God tells His people what animals they can eat and what animals they must avoid. These rules help the people stay clean and set apart.
Fr. Mike says God is not just trying to control people. He is showing them how to live in a holy way. God is teaching them that some things lead to life and some things lead to trouble. Holiness means being different from the world.
Fr. Mike reminds us that these food laws were part of how God trained His people to follow Him. He wanted them to listen and trust Him. The lesson is simple: God is holy, and we are called to be holy too.
What Does “Unclean” Really Mean?
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus chapter 12. He says the chapter can be confusing, especially the part about a woman being “unclean” after giving birth.
Fr. Mike explains that being unclean is not the same as being sinful. It doesn’t mean someone is bad. It just means they are not ready to take part in worship. It’s more about being in the right condition to enter the temple.
He says many things in Leviticus that cause someone to be unclean have to do with life and death. Things like blood, death, or giving birth are connected to life. They are not bad, but they are powerful.
Fr. Mike reminds us that the rules in Leviticus were meant to show respect for life. And he says being “unclean” was only for a time. Once the time passed and the offering was made, the person could join in worship again.

Respecting the Body and the Gift of Life
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 15. He explains that it’s all about rules for bodily discharges, both for men and for women. Some of these are normal, like semen or menstruation. Others are signs of illness, like a disease or long-term bleeding.
Fr. Mike says these rules aren’t about being dirty or gross. They are about being careful. The body is sacred. These things are connected to life. So, God teaches His people to treat them with respect.
He says sex and reproduction are good, but also serious. They matter. So God gives laws to help people understand how holy and important these things are. Even though we don’t follow these same laws today, we can still learn to treat the body and our relationships with care.
Fr. Mike reminds us that God’s laws reveal His heart. He wants His people to live with respect, restraint, and justice.
The Scapegoat: A Picture of Forgiveness
In this episode of the Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 16. He explains the Day of Atonement, also called Yom Kippur. This was a special day each year when the high priest made sacrifices to ask God to forgive the people’s sins.
Fr. Mike explains how the priest would take two goats. One goat was offered as a sacrifice. The other goat, called the scapegoat, was sent into the wilderness. The priest would place his hands on the scapegoat and speak all the sins of the people over it. Then the goat was led away, carrying those sins far from the people.
Fr. Mike says this points to Jesus. Jesus is the one who truly takes away our sins. Leviticus helps us see that. The laws in Leviticus may seem strange, but they were preparing God’s people to worship in the right way.
Fr. Mike says this is not just old stuff. Leviticus helps us understand what Jesus does for us today.
What Leviticus Teaches About Worship and Morality
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus chapters 17 and 18. He explains that some laws in Leviticus were only for a certain time. These include rules about temple worship and how Israel stayed separate from other nations. But some laws are always true, for all people and all times.
Fr. Mike says Leviticus 18 gives moral laws, especially about sex and marriage. These are not just for Israel. God says the people of Canaan did these things and were punished. So these laws still matter today. They are about what is right and wrong.
Fr. Mike also explains that Leviticus 17 talks about the value of blood. Blood is life. That’s why the people had to bring animals to the tent of meeting and not eat blood. It helped them honor God and remember that life is a gift.
He says God gives laws because He loves us. They guide us and protect us. Fr. Mike reminds us that even when we feel broken or confused, we are still loved by God.
Learning Right and Wrong
In this episode of the Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 19. He explains that some rules in Leviticus were just for that time and place. These helped Israel stay holy and separate from other nations. Examples include rules about clothing and shaving.
But Fr. Mike says some laws in Leviticus are for all people, at all times. These are about what is good and fair. God teaches justice first. That means learning right and wrong clearly. Later, God will teach mercy too.
Fr. Mike points out one special verse. It says we must not show favor to the poor or the rich in court. Everyone must be treated fairly. God is teaching his people how to live with justice.
Fr. Mike reminds us that God gave these laws to help Israel know who they are and how to live with Him.
Reading from Leviticus Chapter 20
In this episode of The Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz reads Leviticus chapter 20.
The Call for Priests to Be Holy
In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 21. He says it shows that priests were not only set apart but also called to live in a holy way. They had rules to follow so they would not dishonor God or the people they served.
Fr. Mike says the same is true today. Priests must live lives that match their calling. He asks listeners to pray for priests—not just for more of them, but for holy ones. He admits that many priests, including himself, fall short in small and big ways.
Leviticus helps us see that God wants His priests to be different, to live with care and respect. Fr. Mike says this is not just about priests in the Old Testament. It’s about what it means to follow God now too.
Set Apart for God
Fr. Mike Schmitz explains that Leviticus is all about holiness. He says holiness means being set apart. In Leviticus chapter 22, God shows how His people and His priests should live in a special way. They are not supposed to live like everyone else.
Fr. Mike says that when something is blessed, it becomes holy. It is now meant for God, not for regular use. This is true for things like incense and oil, but also true for people. When someone is set apart, like a priest or a baptized person, their life should look different.
He reminds us that being holy means being careful with what is sacred. It means we treat holy things with respect. Leviticus helps us see that God wants His people to be different, to live with purpose, and to be close to Him.
God’s People Celebrate with Special Days
Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 23. He says this chapter lists the feasts of the Lord. These are special days when God’s people come together to worship.
He explains that these feasts were already mentioned before, but we hear about them again now. This includes the Passover, the Feast of Weeks, and the Day of Atonement. Fr. Mike says the Bible repeats things on purpose. It helps us remember what matters.
These feasts are not just history. Fr. Mike says they show how God wants to be close to His people. He gave them special times to stop, rest, and worship. That reminder still matters today.
Light, Bread, and Justice
In this episode of the Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 24.
He explains that God gives instructions for the lamp and the bread in the tabernacle. The lamp must stay lit all the time. The bread is set out every Sabbath. These remind the people that God is always with them.
Fr. Mike also talks about the punishment for blasphemy. In Leviticus, someone who curses God’s name must be punished. Fr. Mike points out that this is serious because God’s name is holy.
He says there must be justice in the community. Leviticus shows that justice must be fair for everyone. Whether someone is born in Israel or not, the same rules apply.
Fr. Mike reminds us that these laws show that God is present. His people must live in a way that respects Him and one another.
Rest, Justice, and the Gift of Freedom
Fr. Mike Schmitz explains that Leviticus 25 is about trusting God and treating people fairly. God tells the people to let the land rest every seventh year. This is called a sabbatical year. Just like the people rest on the Sabbath, the land needs to rest too.
Fr. Mike says this teaches us that we are not slaves. We don’t have to work all the time. Rest shows that we trust God to take care of us.
He also talks about the Year of Jubilee. This happened every 50 years. In that year, people returned to their land and were set free if they had sold themselves as servants. Fr. Mike says it was a year of starting fresh. Debts were forgiven. People got a second chance.
Fr. Mike reminds us that God is teaching His people to grow. Leviticus helps them live with trust, fairness, and freedom.
Blessings, Warnings, and a Father’s Love
In this episode of The Bible in a Year Podcast, Fr. Mike Schmitz shares a few thoughts on Leviticus chapter 26.
He says that God gives both rewards and warnings. If the people follow His ways, they will have peace, food, and safety. But if they turn away, bad things will happen. Fr. Mike explains that these hard things are not because God is angry. They are meant to bring His people back.
Fr. Mike says God is like a good father. A good dad gives rules and allows consequences. Not to harm his children, but to help them grow and return when they stray.
He reminds us that God wants the best for us. When we walk with Him, we live in His love. When we disobey, He still wants us back. Leviticus shows us that God cares enough to correct us.
Giving to God and Not Taking It Back
Fr. Mike Schmitz talks about Leviticus 27. He explains that this chapter is about votive offerings. These are gifts people choose to give to God, not because they have to, but because they want to.
He says that sometimes a person wanted to serve in the temple, but only Levites could do that. So instead, they gave the value of their work in silver. The amount depended on age and gender. They could also give animals, land, or other things to the Lord.
Fr. Mike points out that once something is given to God, it belongs to Him. If someone tries to take it back, they must pay more to redeem it.
He reminds us that it’s easy to give something to God, then want it back. But when we give, we should mean it. Leviticus teaches us to be honest and faithful with our offerings.
