    Study Notes

    The Origin of the Sacrificial System

    • The sacrificial system in the Old Testament originated immediately after the Fall of Man.
    • The first mention of sacrifice is in Genesis 4:2-5, where Cain and Abel offer sacrifices to God. No explicit reason for the sacrifices is given.
    • The sacrificial system was a means of redemption, provided by God after the Fall of Man.
    • The penalty of eternal death was not applied to Adam and Eve immediately, but God provided a means of redemption by offering them garments of skin.
    • The death of the animal in Genesis 3:21 is interpreted as a sacrificial act, symbolizing the promise of redemption through the sacrifice of Christ.
    • The sacrificial system became a full-blown theological concept in the Israelite sacrificial system, building upon the foundation of the Fall of Man.

    Sacrificial Acts in the Patriarchal Narratives

    • The Patriarchal narratives (Genesis) highlight the inseparable link between worship and sacrifice.
    • The word "ahăr" (altar) appears in Genesis 8:20; 12:7; 26:25, signifying a place of worship.

    Sacrificial Acts of Patriarchs

    • Cain's Sacrifice (Genesis 4:3): Rejected by the Lord and interpreted as "wrong."
