Knight demonstrates the validity and importance of this book for our faith. "We discover in Leviticus," writes Knight, "the meaning of the atonement, the meaning of holiness, the meaning of priestly representation, the true significance of the Sabbath... The theology that we meet within the book of Leviticus must necessarily continue to apply to the life of the Church... simply because it applies to the life and work of Christ himself."
