The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-38

Ministerial support. cf. 1 Corinthians 9:13 ; 1 Corinthians 10:18 . We have in this chapter a detailed account of the disposal of the offerings already referred to. The leading idea of the passage is the perquisites of the priests, and the Christian counterpart of this is ministerial support. And in this connection let us observe— I. IN ALL THE OFFERINGS THE FIRST CONCERN WAS TO ALLOCATE TO GOD HIMSELF HIS DUE . In particular he had appropriated to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:11-30

Four thoughts on sacred service. We gather from these words— I. THAT THERE IS A JOYOUS AND SOCIAL ELEMENT IN SACRED SERVICE . There were not only sin and burnt offerings, but also meat and peace offerings, in the Hebrew ritual. Those who were reconciled unto God might rejoice, and might rejoice together, before him. They might hold festive gatherings as his servants and as his worshippers; they might eat flesh which had been dedicated, to him, and bread, even ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:14-34

The kingdom of God: lessons from the heave offering. The ceremony of the heave offering and wave offering was a striking incident in the rite of the peace offering. "According to Jewish tradition it was performed by laying the parts on the hands of the offerer, and the priest, putting his hands again underneath, then moving them in a horizontal direction for the waving and in a vertical one for the heaving … the waving was peculiarly connected with the breast, which is thence called the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:28-34

Continuation of the ritual of the peace offerings (see note on Le Leviticus 3:1 ). The equal dignity of the peace offerings with the other offerings is vindicated by the command that the offerer shall bring it with his own hands , whereas it might have been regarded as merely the constituent part of a feast, and so sent by the hand of a servant. The breast and the right shoulder were to be waved and heaved (for "heaved" does not merely mean" taken off," as some have said). The waving... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:28-38

The service of the oblation. In the service of the oblation of the peace offering there are two actors, viz. the offerer and the priest. These had their respective duties, which are severally brought under our notice in the text. We have— I. THE DUTY OF THE OFFERER . 1 . He had to bring his oblation unto the Lord. 2 . He had to bring the fat laid upon the breast. II. THE DUTY OF THE PRIEST . 1 . He had to offer up the oblation. 2 . The... read more

The wave breast and the heave shoulder given to the priests. God's share and his ministers' share must be both fully given and carefully set aside and publicly offered up. Generous support of the sanctuary. I. SERVICE OF GOD 'S HOUSE REQUIRES SPECIAL OFFERINGS ; which should be: 1 . Large and freely bestowed. Reciprocal blessings; those that give receive, and as they give, they receive. 2 . The ministry should be so provided for that the service rendered be... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:29-34

The threefold participation. In the case of the peace offerings, there was a recognition of rights due to God, to his priests, and to the people presenting the victims. I. THE PORTION RESERVED FOR GOD . The fat parts and the bleed were not to be eaten by man; the former must be burnt upon the altar, the latter poured out at its foot. There are claims God will not waive. The homage man owes to his Maker can never be remitted. Full trust and unfaltering obedience can be... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:34

The wave breast and the heave shoulder were to be the priests', as well as the meat offering ( Leviticus 7:10 ) and other portions. Thus is taught the lesson, enforced by St. Paul ( 1 Corinthians 9:13 , 1 Corinthians 9:14 ), "Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel." The adequate... read more

Conclusion of the section. This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons , may be translated simply, This is the portion of Aaron, and the portion of his sons, as the word " mischah " will bear the meaning of portion as well as of anointing. This rendering, however, is not necessary, as it was the anointing of Aaron and Ms sons that entitled them to these portions. read more
