**Questions for Reflection and Discussion:**
1. What objections have you felt as you have studied Leviticus? How have you processed those? Which ones are resolved and which are still up in the air?
2. Have you ever been accused of “picking and choosing”? How did you (or would you have) defend yourself against this accusation?
3. Explain in your own words the three categories from the video. How do you find this helpful for making sense of Levitical laws?
4. What challenges do you foresee in trying to discern which OT laws apply today? How can you proceed wisely even amidst such challenges?
