James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-38

THE SIN AND TRESPASS OFFERINGS THE SIN OFFERING The data for the sin offering is found in Leviticus 4:1-35 ; Leviticus 5:1-13 and Leviticus 6:24-30 . As to the name of this offering, it will be seen that “sin” is mentioned here for the first time in connection with the law of the offerings. The idea of sin is included in the others, but it was not the predominating idea as it is here. There was atonement for sin in the other offerings, but rather for sin in man’s nature than the actual... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:28-34

28-34 The priest who offered, was to have the breast and the right shoulder. When the sacrifice was killed, the offerer himself must present God's part of it; that he might signify his cheerfully giving it up to God. He was with his own hands to lift it up, in token of his regard to God as the God of heaven; and then to wave it to and fro, in token of his regard to God as the Lord of the whole earth. Be persuaded and encouraged to feed and feast upon Christ, our Peace-offering. This blessed... read more

D.—FOR TRESPASS OFFERINGS. Leviticus 7:1-6Leviticus 7:1 Likewise [And] this is the law of1 the trespass-offering: it is most holy. 2In the place where they kill the burnt offering shall they kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall Hebrews 2:0 sprinkle round about upon the altar. 3And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump [the fat tail3], and the fat that covereth the inwards, 4and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the flanks, and the caul... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Leviticus 7:22-38

Things Forbidden; the Portion of the Priests Leviticus 7:22-38 The eating of the fat and the blood was prohibited; the first probably during the pilgrimage, the latter in perpetuity. See Leviticus 3:17 . When we are told that the disobedient soul must be cut off, it refers probably to the excommunication which the priest pronounced until the offender had repented and was reinstated in the privileges of God’s house. The waving of parts of the victim consisted in the priest placing his hands... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 7:1-38

The law of the trespass offering is practically identical with that of the sin offering It is impossible to ponder these things without the mind turning to the great and infinite Sacrifice in which all the suggestions of the Mosaic economy were finally fulfilled. The peace offering was pre-eminently that of communion. In the law of this offering three kinds are recognized: an offering of thanksgiving, an offering in connection with vows, and one which is purely a free-will offering to God. In... read more

What Pertains To The Priests From The Peace Offerings and Sacrifices (Leviticus 7:28-36 ). Leviticus 7:28 ‘And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,’ Once again it is said to be a matter of divine revelation through Moses. Leviticus 7:29-31 ‘Speak to the children of Israel, saying, He who offers the sacrifice of his peace-offerings to Yahweh shall bring his oblation to Yahweh out of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings: his own hands shall bring the offerings of Yahweh made by fire; the fat with the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:1-38

Leviticus 6:8 to Leviticus 7:38 . Special Manual for Priests, given to “ Aaron and his sons” ( Leviticus 6:9; Leviticus 6:14; Leviticus 6:25, etc.; contrast Leviticus 4:2, etc.). The peace offering is here placed last. It may be noted that two sections ( Leviticus 7:7-2 Samuel : and Leviticus 7:22-Daniel :) seem to break the connexion; they are perhaps insertions from independent laws. None of these provisions affect laymen. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:28-34

Leviticus 7:28-Nahum : . Continuation of Peace Offerings.— An addition to the provisions of Leviticus 7:8-2 Samuel :. The breast and the thigh go to the priests, the latter to the officiator, the former to the priests in general ( cf. 1 Samuel 2:13-Nehemiah :, Deuteronomy 18:3); here, a still larger portion is surrendered by the offerer. The breast is to be “ waved,” moved backwards and forwards in the direction of the altar; the thigh is simply “ heaved,” i.e. lifted out of the rest of... read more
