利未記 3:11 CUNPTS

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 3:11

It is the food of the offering made by fire unto the Lord; literally, It is the bread of the offering by fire to the Lord. The idea of the peace offering being that of a meal at God's board, the part of the animal presented to God upon the altar is regarded as his share of the feast, and is called his food or bread. Cf. Revelation 3:20 , "I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 3:1-17

The peace offering (3:1-17)Among Israelites in general, the most popular of the offerings was the peace offering (GNB: fellowship offering). The characteristic feature of this offering was the feast for the worshippers that followed the sacrifice (1 Samuel 9:12-13). First, however, the animal was sacrificed with blood ritual the same as that of the burnt offering.

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 3:1-17

The Peace OfferingThis form of sacrifice takes its name from a Heb. word meaning a ’requital’ or giving of thanks, and is therefore called by some the Thank Offering. It is an animal sacrifice, the characteristic feature of which is the disposal of the carcase. The kidneys and the internal fat, and, in the case of sheep, the fat tail also, are offered to God by burning upon the altar (Leviticus 3:3-5). The choice parts, the breast and the right thigh, fall to the lot of the priests after being... read more

THE PEACE OFFERINGLeviticus 3:1-17; Leviticus 7:11-34; Leviticus 19:5-8; Leviticus 22:21-25IN chapter 3 is given, though not with completeness, the law of the peace offering. The alternative rendering of this term, "thank offering" (marg. R.V), precisely expresses only one variety of the peace offering; and while it is probably impossible to find any one word that shall express in a satisfactory way the whole conception of this offering, it is not easy to find one better than the familiar term... read more
