Each of the five books of Torah makes a complete Chiastic Structure, which highlights the theme of each book.
Genesis, which is, The Promised Seed Prophesied;
Exodus, which is, Deliverance from service to Egypt, to service to God, by walking in His commandments;
Leviticus, which is, The Atoning Sacrifice;
Numbers, which is, Resurrection Life;
Deuteronomy, which is, Repentance and Return.
All five books together proclaim:
The Promised Seed prophesied, who delivers God’s people (Israel by type) from bondage to the kingdom of darkness (Egypt by type), to service to YHVH; via His Atoning Sacrifice, attested by His Resurrection Life, opening the door for His people’s Repentance and Return.
The Gospel of Grace.
“For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me.” – Yeshua, in Joh 5:46
The Torah also makes its own single Chiastic Structure, also proclaiming the Gospel of Grace in another way, as a second witness.
The single Chiastic Structure of Torah is taken from Finding Messiah in Torah by Christine Miller.
