Leviticus as Literature
Douglas, Mary (formerly Professor of Anthropology, formerly Professor of Anthropology, University College London)
This account of Leviticus presents the biblical work as a literary masterpiece. Seen in an anthropological perspective, Leviticus has a mystical structure which plots the book into three parts corresponding to the three parts of the desert tabernacle, which in turn corresponds to Mount Sinai.
