Burnt Bread: The Grain Offering

The Lord's Day Evening November 21, 2004 Leviticus 6:19-23 “Burnt Bread: The Grain Offering” (2) Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter six, again; this time beginning in verse 19. You’ll want to allow your eyes to look back four verses over the passage that we considered last week when we first began to look again at the grain offering. And perhaps you’ll want to remember something of what we said when we looked at the grain offering in Leviticus 2.

And so we appreciate different aspects of the significance of these sacrifices as we look at them from these two perspectives. Now, we've already…

Now if you will look at Exodus chapter 12, and especially beginning in verse 14, we are going to continue this study in a chapter that gives us instructions about Passover and the Lord's Supper. Last week we said our attention for that week and this week would turn away from the tenth plague, the tenth strike of God or blow of God against Egypt, and the gods of Egypt. And we would for a little while focus our attention on the institution of the Passover and of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the bulk of this chapter, Exodus 12, is devoted to this important Old Testament sacrament. Now as we studied Exodus 12, verses 1 through 13 last week, we noted two or…
