The Greek Testament of Levi describes the origin of the priesthood from Levi. In the text, he gives advice to his sons and teaches how they are to serve in the temple. He encourages priests to acquire knowledge because thanks to wisdom they will have respect in the community. In the last instruction before his death he warns them against sins. Sin, according to Levi, will destroy the temple. In the Testament, Levi announces the “new priest” who will renew cult. The text about the “new priest” Christians identified with Jesus Christ, and the words of Levi were to be an instruction for the priests of the Church.
