A Microcosm of Redemption

Text for discussion: Leviticus 8. 

There are golden threads that weave together Scripture and weave throughout Scripture.  The theme of redemption is one of those golden threads.  Leviticus 8 describes a type of the greater thing to come.  The tabernacle shows us a microcosm of the greater redemption to come in Jesus.  In these events, God is showing us what is to come.  Peering into the Old Testament world is a picture of what Jesus will do in the New Testament world, and what Jesus will bring about when all is finished in this world.
