The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Leviticus (Annotated) Enriched Edition. A Reverent Old Testament Commentary on Sacrifice, Priesthood, Holiness, and Atonement

Samuel H. Kellogg's The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Leviticus offers a learned, reverent exposition of one of Scripture's most intricate books, treating its sacrifices, priesthood, purity laws, feasts, and holiness code as integral to biblical theology. Written in the dignified yet accessible style characteristic of The Expositor's Bible series, it combines philological care, historical awareness, and evangelical interpretation, situating Leviticus within the wider canon and especially within the unfolding logic of atonement, worship, and covenant life. Kellogg, an American Presbyterian minister, missionary, and professor of theology, brought to the volume both pastoral concern and scholarly discipline. His experience in theological education and cross-cultural mission sharpened his interest in the enduring religious significance of ritual, law, and mediation. Writing in an age when critical scholarship often questioned Mosaic tradition, Kellogg sought to defend the spiritual coherence and divine purpose of Leviticus without reducing it to antiquarian curiosity. This book is warmly recommended to readers who wish to move beyond the common difficulty of Leviticus and discover its theological depth. Ministers, students of Scripture, and serious lay readers will find in Kellogg a patient guide to a demanding but profoundly illuminating biblical text.
