The burnt offering sets forth God's delight in His Son. Never, in all the history of humanity, had anyone else been asked to give a perfect life to God unto death. All the rest of us have to die -- "the wages of sin is death" -- but that did not apply to God's Son who voluntarily gave Himself in death to the Father, so rendering the utmost possible devotion. The priest needed to lean hard on that for, if the sin offering made him right with God, the burnt offering brought him acceptably into God's presence. So it is that for all of us, the perfection of Christ makes up for all our imperfections; His complete obedience is what we must lean heavily on if we are to have real peace. This illustrates what is meant by believing on the Lord Jesus. It means to lean hard on Christ in His devotion of obedience to the Father.
