At 800 pages, the Leviticus ZECOT commentary provides a robust discussion of the text that will appeal both to professors and to pastors. For each passage, it consistently provides:
• the main idea of the passage, so you can quickly see the big picture
• verse by verse commentary that is informed by the secondary literature but stays focused on the text itself
• robust discussion of canonical and practical significance that keeps preachers and teachers in mind, breaking the discussion down into 3-4 main points that could inform sermon and teaching outlines
• discussion of apologetic issues throughout (e.g., issues related to slavery, sexuality, harsh penalties, and more)
• consistent links to the New Testament and especially how Leviticus relates to the person and work of Jesus
