The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 3:6-17

The peace offering of the flock. The ceremony in relation to this is almost identical with that of the herd already described. Nevertheless, there are a few expressions in the course of the description which are not found in the former paragraph. We call attention to— 1. THE DESCRIPTION OF THE FAT OF THE LAMB . Leviticus 3:8-10 . 1 . Note the expression, "The fat thereof, and the whole rump." The "and" here is expletive rather than copulative, thus, "The fat... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 3:9

The whole rump should no doubt be the whole tail, consisting chiefly of fat, and always regarded as a great delicacy in the East (see Herod; 3:113; Thompson, 'Land and the Book,' page 97). The burning of the fat tail upon the altar, together with the internal fat, is the only point in which the ritual to be used when offering a sheep ( Leviticus 3:6-11 ) differs from that used in offering a bull or cow ( Leviticus 3:1-5 ), or a goat ( Leviticus 3:12-16 ). read more

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. Then the Lord’s portion, consisting of the richest and most vital parts of the animal, was burnt upon the altar, probably to... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Leviticus 3:1-17

[See the Chapter Comments for Leviticus Chapter 1 for introductory information]3. The peace offering ch. 3The peace (fellowship) offering is the third sacrifice of worship. It represented the fellowship between God and man that resulted from the relationship that God had established with the redeemed individual. Peace and fellowship resulted from redemption, and this act of worship highlighted those blessings from God. This was an optional sacrifice; an Israelite could bring it if and when he... read more

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

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Leviticus 3:9

(9) The whole rump.—Better, the whole fat tail (so also Exodus 29:22; Leviticus 7:3; Leviticus 8:25; Leviticus 9:19). The sheep of Syria and Palestine were, and still are, the bread-tailed species, the broad part often weighing fifteen pounds and upwards. In young animals, the substance of the tail, which consists of marrow and fat, tastes like marrow, and it is used by the Arabs for cooking instead of butter. It is often so large that it trails on the ground, and to save the animal from the... read more
