利未记 3:3 RCUVSS

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 3:1-17

THE PEACE OFFERINGLeviticus 3:1-17; Leviticus 7:11-34; Leviticus 19:5-8; Leviticus 22:21-25IN chapter 3 is given, though not with completeness, the law of the peace offering. The alternative rendering of this term, "thank offering" (marg. R.V), precisely expresses only one variety of the peace offering; and while it is probably impossible to find any one word that shall express in a satisfactory way the whole conception of this offering, it is not easy to find one better than the familiar term... read more

3. The Peace Offering CHAPTER 3 1. The ox (Leviticus 3:1-5 ) 2. The sheep or goat (Leviticus 3:6-17 ) This is the third “sweet savour offering,” and is closely linked with the burnt offering, but it differs from it, especially, in that part of it was to be eaten. The peace offering also had the character of a thank offering (Leviticus 7:11-13 ). As it was offered on the altar upon the burnt sacrifice, it cannot therefore be separated from Christ offering Himself as the burnt offering.... read more

3:3 And he shall {b} offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire unto the LORD; the fat that covereth the inwards, and all the fat that [is] upon the inwards,(b) One part was burnt, another was to the priests, and the third to him that offered. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 3:1-17

THE PEACE OFFERING TAKEN FROM THE HERD (vv. 1-5) The peace offering was also a voluntary sacrifice. However, it could either be a male or female, but only an unblemished animal. Of course it speaks also of the one sacrifice of Christ, but since a female was allowed, this involves the part that believers have with Christ in the value of His sacrifice. The burnt offering speaks altogether of the value of that sacrifice to God , but the peace offering involves also the blessing that comes to... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 3:1-17

THE MEAL AND PEACE OFFERINGS THE MEAL OFFERING (Leviticus 2:0 ) We call the second offering the “meal” instead of the meat offering, following the Revised Version. The burnt and meal offerings really belong together. They are both offerings of consecration, and when the one was presented the other followed as a kind of appendage (see Leviticus 23:12-13 ; Leviticus 23:18 ; Numbers 28:7-15 ; Judges 13:19 ; Ezra 7:17 ; etc.). We have seen that the burnt offering was entirely consumed upon... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Leviticus 3:1-17

Minor Offerings Leviticus 3:0 In addition to the great offerings of the Jewish ritual, there were certain minor offerings for which special provision was made. If we take this chapter and view it in the light of the Christian dispensation we shall see more clearly what has been gained by the Christian covenant. These offerings, in themselves considered, the Gentile mind will never be able fully to appreciate. The oblations were not intended for Gentiles, and therefore can only be understood in... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 3:3-5

Perhaps the significance of those things, in the inward fat, meaning the prime parts of the animal, was meant to show that all offerings to the LORD must be from the heart, including the best of our affections. Proverbs 23:26 . read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 3:1-5

1-5 The peace-offerings had regard to God as the giver of all good things. These were divided between the altar, the priest, and the owner. They were called peace-offering, because in them God and his people did, as it were, feast together, in token of friendship. The peace-offerings were offered by way of supplication. If a man were in pursuit of any mercy, he would add a peace-offering to his prayer for it. Christ is our Peace, our Peace-offering; for through him alone it is that we can... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Leviticus 3:1-7

Lev_3:1 Lev_6:7 . We now come to the third class of the offerings that were ordained under the law. The burnt offering and the meat offering were very closely connected: the first typifying the sacrificial death and blood-shedding of Christ in the excellence of His sweet savour before God; the second, the equally sweet savour of His perfect life in the energy of the Holy Spirit, tested even unto death. In the peace offering we have another aspect of His sacrifice which is based on the... read more
