He Follows Its Dramatic Movement, Examines The Tabernacle Cult And The Day Of Atonement, And Tracks The Development From Sinai's Tabernacle To Zion's Temple--and From The Earthly To The Heavenly Mount Zion In The New Testament. He Shows How Life With God In The House Of God Was The Original Goal Of The Creation Of The Cosmos, And Became The Goal Of Redemption And The New Creation. -- Back Cover Leviticus Within The Pentateuch : A Theological Structure -- The Structure Of The Pentateuch -- Longing For Eden : Genesis, The Narrative Context Of Leviticus -- Created To Dwell In God's House : The Pentateuch's Prologue -- Deepening Exile From The Presence Of God : The Pentateuch's Plot -- Excursus : Cultic Theology In The Primeval History -- Returning To Eden : Exodus, The Narrative Context Of Leviticus -- Redeemed Through The Waters : Exod. 1:1-15:21 -- Brought To The Mountain Of God : Exod. 15:22-24:18 -- Tabernacle, Life With God : Exod. 25-40 -- Approaching The House Of God : The Dramatic Movement Of Leviticus 1-10 -- The Narrative Drama From Leviticus 1 To 10 -- Understanding The Sacrificial Cultus (lev. 1-8) -- Cleansing The House Of God : The Dramatic Movement Of Leviticus 11-16 -- The Narrative Drama From Leviticus 11 To 16 -- Understanding The Laws On Clean And Unclean (lev. 11-15) -- Leviticus 16 : The Day Of Atonement -- Excursus : Adam's Fall -- Meeting With God At The House Of God : The Dramatic Movement Of Leviticus 17-27 -- The Symbolism Of The Lampstand And Bread Of The Presence -- The Dramatic Movement Of Leviticus 17-25 -- Understanding Israel's Call To Holiness (lev. 17-22) -- Establishing The Earthly House Of God : From Sinai's Tabernacle To Zion's Temple -- Zion, Mountain Of God As Israel's Inheritance -- Exile And Restoration -- Entering The Heavenly House Of God : From The Earthly To The Heavenly Mount Zion -- The Ascent Of Christ's Humanity -- The Descent Of Christ's Spirit.
