Almost every scholar wants to change the meat offering to something else—although they cannot decide what else. The name is said to be confusing to Bible readers. The meat offering has no animal flesh. In fact, it is the only major offering in which no animals are killed. Why is it called the meat offering? Actually, there are very good reasons for calling it the meat offering. The Biblical use of meat refers to solid food as opposed to drink (see Psalm 69:21; Daniel 1:10; Matthew 25:35; John 6:55; Romans 14:17). This is also the older use of the word in English. The first occurrences of meat in the Bible are found in Genesis 1:29-30 where God gives every “herb bearing seed” and the “fruit of a tree…for meat.” Obviously, the fine flour of the meat offering would fit into the meaning of the word. But there is more. The meat offering has a very special typology that is revealed plainly by the cross references to the word meat as used by Christ. The meat offering is the offering of a “living sacrifice”—the kind Christians are supposed to give (Romans 12:1). It is also the kind of sacrifice Christ gave during His earthly ministry. Two verses especially teach this. In John 4:34, Jesus said, “My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.” In John 6:27, He declares, “Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life.” These references to meat fit perfectly with the meaning of the meat offering. Yet, this wonderful connection in scripture is destroyed in the modern versions of the Bible. And it is not simply a matter of them choosing another word. None that I have examined use the same word—any word—in all three passages This lesson will deal with the different elements of the meat offering. It will then show how these characteristics apply to the life of Christ and the life of the believer.

Satan labors might and main, by false teachers, which are his messengers and ambassadors, to deceive, delude, and for ever undo the precious souls of men (Jeremiah 23:13): ‘I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.’ (Micah 3. 5): ‘The prophets make my people to err.’

This chapter shows us what happens when the covetous heart runs free. The righteous Naboth paid the initial price of Ahab’s covetousness. We should beware the evil results of a covetous heart.

The phrase “the word of the LORD” occurs ten times in this chapter. This chapter is about the power and the importance of the word of God.

The Fox is not only crafty, but cruel to harmless creatures; so are False-Teachers to the souls of men.

Have you ever wondered if the Bible that you have has errors in it? Can we find the word of God today or has it been lost in the original languages? Is it even important to know whether we can find the words of God? Let's allow the Bible speak for itself.

An introduction to the Book of Proverbs. An invitation to hear wisdom is given herein.

As False-Teachers are compared to “Wells without Water,” so likewise they are to “Clouds without Rain, carried with a tempest.”

Answer a fool according to his folly, and answer not a fool according to his folly. Is this a contradiction in the Bible?

David is still reaping what he had sown. One of the judgments given by Nathan is fulfilled by David's son Absalom. Galatians 6:7 is fulfilled in this lesson.
