Comment of the Leviticus portion 1: 1 to 5:26

This is the beginning of the third book of the Pentateuch which speaks of the laws of offerings, of which, how and why of said sacrifices.
Actually, the word that is used in Hebrew is ** Korban ** which is an animal, vegetable offering offered on the altar, it is difficult to find a word in Spanish that faithfully translates the meaning, let's see why we say this.
If we say that it is a sacrifice, the word implies that I renounce something that is very dear to me and with which someone will benefit, then if we make a sacrifice to God who owns everything, what will benefit him? You're welcome.
The other term that could be used would be Offering is a gift to appease someone, it is like buying that person, if we gave an offering to the Creator we would be trying to receive a spiritual favor from Him.
We use the words sacrifice and offering because our way of thinking comes from pagan cultures that we have inherited many times without realizing it, each god required something and to avoid the wrath of the gods or human beings granted it to avoid their fury.
The word Korban has the same Hebrew root as Karav which translates as approaching and as we see in> (Gen 12:11; 20: 4; Ex 12:48) this word is constantly used to describe the relationship between The Creator and the people Hebrew.
From this we can deduce that what was offered was to create an approach with the Creator to come before his presence, at present we do not use animals or vegetables to approach us, we do it through prayers and our acts of kindness, because once our Messiah I pay the price of our iniquities and there is no need for anything to serve as an intermediary, we can go to him directly.
The main objective of the korbanot (offerings) is that day by day we take the physical, the body and the material goods and sanctify it, recognizing that everything is for the Glory of the Eternal.
The korbanot, we can list them like this:
Olá - Ascension offering, (Leviticus 1: 1-17; 6: 8-13).
It is through an animal or a bird that is completely burned.
Minchah - Oblation, (> Leviticus 2: 1-16; 6: 14-18).
It is with vegetable specifically flour with oil and spices especially for someone poor so that in this way everyone could approach the Creator without excuse.
Shelamim - (Offerings) of peace, (Leviticus 3: 1-17; 7: 11-36).
It is voluntary in which a part of the animal is burned on the altar, one part for the priest and another part for the one who offered to be eaten by him and his family.
Jatat - (Sacrificial) of sin, (Leviticus 4: 1 - 5:13; 6: 24-30).
This korban was because of a sin of involuntary mistake for not knowing the precepts or for a misinterpretation of them.
Asham - (Sacrifice) of guilt for iniquity, (Leviticus 5:14 - 6: 7).
This korban was obligatory for transgression against the property of his neighbor or for a false oath or false testimony
In each of these, the Creator gives instructions on how they should be offered and how they should be burned or consumed.
Returning to the current era is no longer necessary a korban as in ancient times but like repentance, restoration of a transgression are in force.
It is not like many believe that we can sin with premeditation and treachery without any punishment being imposed on us because we are exonerated by grace, that is, the Messiah and payment for past and future sins, what a great mistake, to the five books of Moshe we must give him the courage that was initially given to them, because neither Yeshua (Jesus) dared to change anything when we see what he says in Matthew 5: 17-18.
