God also said, Do not eat blood. Why? Because life is in the blood. Life is a gift from God.

Leviticus 17 · Grade 3

The Life of the Flesh

Name Date

Read the Story

In Leviticus 17, God told Israel to bring every sacrifice to the door of the Tent of Meeting. The priest would sprinkle the blood on the altar and burn the fat for a pleasant aroma.

God gave a reason. Some people had been offering sacrifices to goat idols in the fields. God wanted His people to stop. They must worship only Him, at the place He chose.

God also said no one may eat blood. For the life of the flesh is in the blood. God gave the blood on the altar to make atonement. This helps us understand why Jesus shed His blood on the cross.

Memory Verse

“For the life of the flesh is in the blood. I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.”

Leviticus 17:11 (WEB)

Leviticus 17 · Grade 4

Life Belongs to God

Name Date

Read and Think

Leviticus 17 is about where and how Israel offered sacrifices. Every animal offered had to be brought to the door of the Tent of Meeting. There the priest sprinkled the blood on the altar. This guarded Israel from offering sacrifices to goat idols, as some of the nations did.

God also forbade eating blood, for Israelites and for foreigners living among them. Verse 11 explains: For the life of the flesh is in the blood. God gave it on the altar to make atonement for their souls. Life belongs to God, so blood was treated with respect.

Hebrews 9:22 says that without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. This is why the New Testament speaks so often of the blood of Jesus. His life was given in place of ours.

Leviticus 17 · Grade 5

The Blood Makes Atonement

Name Date

Read and Think

Leviticus 17 turns from the Day of Atonement to everyday sacrifice. Any man of Israel who killed an ox, lamb, or goat as a sacrifice had to bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting rather than offer it in the open field. The priest would sprinkle the blood on Yahweh's altar and burn the fat for a pleasant aroma. The reason is stated plainly: so that they would no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat idols.

The chapter then forbids eating blood, for both the native Israelite and the foreigner living among them. Even blood from a hunted animal had to be poured out and covered with dust. Verse 11 is the heart of the chapter: For the life of the flesh is in the blood. I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls. Blood represented life, and life belongs to God.

This verse helps explain the whole sacrificial system. A life was given so that a guilty life could be spared. Hebrews 9:22 adds that apart from shedding of blood there is no remission. When the New Testament speaks of being redeemed by the precious blood of Christ (1 Peter 1:19), it means that Jesus gave His very life in our place.
