The One Story – Obedience and Disobedience | Leviticus 26
Know
K1 When you hear Leviticus 26 read as a whole, what emotions or reactions does it stir in you—comfort, tension, confusion, hope—and why? (Lev 26)
Grow
G1 Leviticus 26 reflects a Suzerain–Vassal treaty, a common agreement in the Ancient Near East where a powerful king (the suzerain) pledged protection and blessing to a weaker people (the vassals), and in return expected loyalty and obedience. Blessings followed faithfulness, and consequences followed rebellion (Lev 26:1–13; Lev 26:14–39). How does seeing the chapter through that lens change the way you hear God’s words?
G2 Throughout the chapter, God warns of discipline that increases “seven times” for continued unfaithfulness (Lev 26:18, 21, 24, 28). Why do you think the number seven—often associated with completeness—matters so much here?
G3 The consequences described are severe, yet they are framed as discipline rather than abandonment (Lev 26:18–23). How does that shape your understanding of God’s justice and love holding together?
G4 Spoken Gospel Ministries says, “Jesus takes our sevenfold punishment so that he could give us seven times seven blessings and forgiveness.” How does that statement help connect Leviticus 26 to the work of Jesus? (Heb 10:12–14; Rom 6:10; Rom 5:8)
G5 Even after judgment, God says, “Yet in spite of this…” and promises not to reject or destroy his people (Lev 26:44–45). What does this reveal about God’s character as a covenant-keeping King?
G6 Leviticus 26 ends not with exile, but with remembrance—“I will remember my covenant” (Lev 26:42, 45). How does this shift the tone of the chapter from fear to hope?
Show
S1 When you’re tempted to believe failure is final, how might remembering that God “refuses to forget his covenant” (Lev 26:44–45)—and that Jesus has already borne the full weight of judgment (Heb 10:12–14)—change the way you return to God this week?
