The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:24-30

Special regulations as to the sin offering. Peculiar sanctity of the flesh and blood of the sin offering, pointing to the atonement. In all cases, whether the sin offering of the people, or of the priest, or of the great day of atonement, the same holiness of the victim and of the blood is insisted upon. Here there is— I. THE NECESSITY OF ATONEMENT . 1 . As prescribed by God, coming forth from his infinite holiness. 2 . As connected with mediation, not in atonement... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:25-29

The holiness of the sin offering. This offering was to expiate offenses committed directly against God, and which involved, therefore, the deeper wrong. A peculiar sacredness attached to the sacrifice. Only the priests might partake of it, for it was "most holy." As all Christians are made "priests unto God," it is permitted them to feed upon him who died to save them from sin. They live by faith in the Son of God. Union with their Divine Lord consecrates them, imperishable principles... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:27-29

Communicated sanctity. When any victim had been presented in sacrifice to God, and had been slain, its blood (the "blood of atonement"), and also its flesh, became "most holy" ( Leviticus 6:29 ). And whatsoever was touched by the one or the other received, in virtue of such contact, a communicated sanctity ( Leviticus 6:27 , Leviticus 6:28 ). The lesson here conveyed is that whatsoever comes into close association with a holy one or a holy thing does thereby acquire a measure of... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 6:25

The place where ... - See Leviticus 1:11.It is most holy - See Leviticus 2:3. The key to the special sanctity of the flesh of the sin-offering, as set forth in Leviticus 6:26-30, must, it would seem, be found in the words of Moses to the priests Leviticus 10:17. The flesh of the victim, which represented the sinner for whom atonement was now made, was to be solemnly, and most exclusively, appropriated by those who were appointed to mediate between the sinner and the Lord. The far-reaching... read more

Leviticus 6:26. The priest that offereth it for sin For the sins of the rulers, or of the people, or any of them, but not for the sins of the priests; for then its blood was brought into the tabernacle, and therefore it might not be eaten. read more

Leviticus 6:27. Upon any garment Upon the priest’s garments; for it was he only that sprinkled it, and in so doing he might easily sprinkle his garments. In the holy place Partly out of reverence to the blood of sacrifices, which hereby was kept from a profane or common touch; and partly that such garments might be decent, and fit for sacred administrations. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 6:28

Leviticus 6:28. The earthen vessel shall be broken This relates, not to the consecrated vessels of the tabernacle, for none of these were of earth, Exodus 27:19; but to such vessels as were sometimes employed by private persons in dressing the meat of their sacrifices, whereof we have an example, 1 Samuel 2:13-14. These, after the flesh of the sacrifice had been boiled in them, were to be broken, in order that what retained the smallest tincture of the holy things might not be profaned by... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 6:8-30

The law of the offerings (6:8-7:38)In the section known as ‘the law of the offerings’, the additional regulations were mainly for the benefit of the officiating priests. These regulations have already been dealt with in the discussion on the preceding chapters. Although the present chapters list the offerings in a slightly different order from the earlier chapters, the same five categories are dealt with: the burnt offering (6:8-13; see notes on 1:1-17), the cereal offering (6:14-23; see notes... read more
