Bread, Light, Evil Speech and Vengeance (Leviticus 24)

What this episode covers

This chapter is full of wonderful lessons for Christians. Early Christians saw the oil for the lampstand and the showbread of the tabernacle as foreshadowing significant things that have now been realized through Christ. From the tragic story of the man who cursed God and was condemned to death, we are reminded that what comes out of our mouths can lead to our own spiritual death. Finally, we find Moses limiting vengeance to “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth” and consider how Jesus later changed this in one of His most challenging commands.
