14-23 The law of the burnt-offerings put upon the priests a great deal of care and work; the flesh was wholly burnt, and the priests had nothing but the skin. But most of the meat-offering was their own. It is God's will that his ministers should be provided with what is needful. read more
The offering of Consecration v. 19. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, v. 20. This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons which they shall offer unto the Lord in the day when he is anointed, when he was ordained and inducted into office, it being his daily sacrifice: the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat-offering perpetual, half of it in the morning and half thereof at night; it was the high priest's daily oblation, in order to maintain his fellowship with God. v. 21.

Law of the Burned-Offering Leviticus 6:8-23 Notice well the teaching of this paragraph, which has special reference to the fire, which was to be kept always burning upon the altar. Thrice is the injunction repeated, Leviticus 6:9 ; Leviticus 6:12-13 . As it originally descended from God, Leviticus 9:24 , so it was to be ever maintained by the watchful care of the priests. It is interesting to notice that a different Hebrew word is used for the fire that burned on the great brazen altar... read more
The first movement in this chapter completes the subject of the trespass offering in its application to other men. Carefully observe, however, that such a trespass is also trespass against the Lord: "If any one sin, and commit a trespass against Jehovah, and deal falsely with his neighbor. . . ." Five illustrations are given an examination of which will show that the underlying wrong in each case is violation of truth. The divine provision for worship having been revealed in the offerings,... read more
Further Revelation On The Grain Offering: The Regular Grain Offering (Leviticus 6:19-23 ). Information is now given about the regular morning and evening grain offering, offered along with the continual whole burnt offering.

Leviticus 6:19 ‘And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,’ Leviticus 6:20 ‘This is the oblation of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer to Yahweh in the day when he is... read more
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
Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 6:19-23
This consecrated offering for the priests, which was to be wholly burnt, perhaps typified the dedication of the LORD JESUS, as the sacrifice for the whole sins of the people. For as the priest, in his ministration, appeared before the LORD, in the name of the people, so in this same representation he typified JESUS. Hebrews 5:1-3 , with Hebrews 7:23-25 . read more
