Commentary on Leviticus (Master's Commentary) [Paperback]

Andrew A. Bonar (Author)

Book Description

Series: Master's Commentary | Publication Date: December 1, 2000

This is not a verse by verse commentary. Actually the plan of the book is to take the Levitical sacrifices, types, etc. and relate them to the true Sacrifice, Jesus Christ. You will delight in his explanations of the sacrifices and the priesthood. You will learn a great deal more about the atonement, and about the intercession of Christ our Mediator. ‘Very precious. Mr. Andrew Bonar has a keen eye for a typical analogy, but he always keeps his rein on his imagination, and is therefore safe to follow. He is a master in Israel’ (C. H. Spurgeon).

5.0 out of 5 stars Lyrical Explanation of an (Unfortunately) Obscure Book, May 14, 2002

This review is from: Commentary on Leviticus (Master's Commentary) (Paperback)

Most Christians usually skip Leviticus when reading the Bible. They think it's too obscure, or that it belongs to an older audience (i.e. those under the OT Law). Bonar shows the beauty of this ancient text by showing how the shadows of the sacrificial system pointed to Christ and still help those under the New Covenant to see more clearly the beauty of what Jesus accomplished, both as our Substitutionary Sacrifice, and as our Great High Priest. Should be read by all serious Christinas.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding!, September 6, 2009

By 

Jason B (Saint Louis MO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A commentary on Leviticus (A Geneva series commentary) (Hardcover)

Bonar's work on Leviticus is outstanding! He show's shadows of Christ on every page, and never fails to leave you with something to ponder. His ability to open up this book of the law and apply it to christians is remarkable. I'm sure the more "scholarly" crowd would much rather take apart each word and look for tenses and clauses, while Bonar does do some of that, his priority is showing Christ. And he does so gloriously. This one is not to be missed and has a permanent place in my library. I cannot comend this title too much, it is a treasure!
