Genesis was written to present the beginning of everything except God: the universe (1:1); man (1:27); the Sabbath (2:2-3); marriage (2:22-24); Sin (3:1-7); sacrifice and salvation (3:15, 21); the family (4: 1-15); Civilization (4:16-21); government (9:1-6); Nations (11); Israel (12:1-3). It was also written to record God’s choice of Israel and His covenant plan for the nation, so that the Israelites would have a spiritual perspective. Purpose of Genesis

As Leviticus opens, the Israelites are still camping at the base of Mount Sinai in the wilderness.

Continues • No geographical movement takes place in Leviticus: The children of Israel remain at the foot of Mount Sinai (Lev. 25: 1-2; 26:46; 27:34). • The New Calender of Israel begins with the first Passover (Ex 12:2); and, according to Exodus 40:17, the tabernacle is completed exactly one year later. • Leviticus picks up the story at this point and takes place in the first month of the second year. Numbers 1:1 opens at the beginning of the second month.
