This review is from: Divine Presence and Community: A Commentary on the Book of Leviticus (International Theological Commentary) (Paperback)

A great reading of Leviticus. Frank Gorman's other works on sacred space and sacred time inform this book's commentary and are a great example of how Leviticus must continue to speak to a modern age - not so much about "institutions" but about real use of space and time.
