Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 7:7-8

Leviticus 7:7-8. As is the sin-offering, so is the trespass-offering In the matter following, for in other things they differed. The priests shall have it That part of it which was by God allowed to the priest. The priest shall have to himself the skin The note of Bishop Patrick is worth transcribing here: “All the flesh of the burnt-offerings being wholly consumed, as well as the fat upon the altar, there was nothing that could fall to the share of the priest but the skin, which is... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Leviticus 7:9

Leviticus 7:9. All the meat or meal- offering shall be the priest’s Except the part reserved by God, (Leviticus 2:2; Leviticus 2:9,) these being ready dressed, and hot, and to be eaten presently. And the priest who offered it was, in reason, to expect something more than his brethren who laboured not about it, and that he had only in this offering; for the others were equally distributed. For ( Lev 7:10 ) every meat or meal-offering, which was of raw flour, whether mingled with oil or... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-38

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

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 7:8

Leviticus 7:8. The priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt-offering— I subjoin here the learned note of Bishop Patrick: "All the flesh of the burnt-offerings being wholly consumed, as well as the fat, upon the altar, (ch. Leviticus 1:8-9.) there was nothing that could fall to the share of the priest, but the skin; which is here given him for his pains. I observed upon Gen 3:21 that it is probable Adam himself offered the first sacrifice, and had the skin given him by GOD, to make the... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Leviticus 7:9

Leviticus 7:9. And all the meat-offering, &c.— See ch. Leviticus 2:6. The author of the Observations remarks, from some customs now prevailing among the Arabs, that the pouring oil on a meat-offering baken in a pan, and broken to pieces, was, according to the way of those times, when they would regale their friends in a more elegant manner; and, consequently, was to be done out of respect to the priests of the LORD, to whom they were appropriated. We refer the reader, curious on this topic,... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 7:8

8. the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered—All the flesh and the fat of the burnt offerings being consumed, nothing remained to the priest but the skin. It has been thought that this was a patriarchal usage, incorporated with the Mosaic law, and that the right of the sacrificer to the skin of the victim was transmitted from the example of Adam (see on :-). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Leviticus 7:1-10

The law of the trespass (reparation) offering for the priests 7:1-10Here we have more detail concerning the ritual involved in this offering than we read formerly (ch. 5). The procedures for slaughtering the trespass offering and sprinkling its blood were the same as for the burnt offering (Leviticus 1:5). The priests burned only the fatty parts on the altar (cf. Leviticus 3:9; Leviticus 4:8). They were to eat the flesh of this offering (cf. Leviticus 6:22)."Ministers must assure repentant... read more
