Sweet Savour

Dear class,

3rd day into the reading of Leviticus. Some of us could be wondering why are we trudging through this dry and boring book.
Remember Rom 15:4! As we read, try to see how it applies/relates to the Christian dispensation.

Just like to highlight this concept of sweet savour as it relates to sacrifice, which is the primary focus of Leviticus and Numbers.

Found some 44 times in the bible, only once in NT. In Leviticus alone: 17 times and Numbers:18 times.
Basically meaning pleasant smell or aroma.
Acceptable sacrifice is like a sweet savour to God. Today, even without animal sacrifices, the concept is the same.
Paul wrote - "For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ..." (2Co 2:15)
We offer "sacrifice of praise" (Heb 13:15)
We are a "living sacrifice"! (Rom 12:1)

As we go about our daily duties, what sweet savour have we offered?

May you have a blessed day ahead

in Him

Paul
