The book of Leviticus begins with the words: The LORD called to Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting. Vayikra means and He called, meaning Yahweh continued to give Moses instructions concerning how to worship and serve him. Yahweh had moved his place of encounter from the mountain to the tabernacle. The place of His instruction moved from Mt. Sinai to the tent of meeting in the tabernacle. The instructions are the guidelines for the Israelites to worship a holy God and live as His people and His representatives. Too often we see the book of Leviticus as a bunch of laws and prohibitions when in reality it is the instructions on ways to stay connected to a holy God, Yahweh.
