The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:19-23

Ministerial function, and obligation. This instruction is supplementary to that given in Exodus 29:1-46 . We may gather from it— I. THAT ENTRANCE ON SACRED WORK SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED WITH SPECIAL SOLEMNITIES . The commencement of any ministry may well be attended with such observances as shall impress upon the mind the sanctity and. weight of the obligations which are incurred. It. THAT THE ACCEPTANCE OF SACRED OBLIGATIONS SHOULD BE REGARDED ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:19-23

The high priest's offering in the day when he is anointed—a perpetual meat offering; offered not during the days of the anointing, but when it was completed, and it was wholly burnt. Fine flour baked as an oil-cake; not a bleeding sacrifice, therefore, but only a thank offering, to denote that expiation was always made, and the high priest offered the fruits of sanctification. This may be viewed— I. Is ITS TYPICAL APPLICATION TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST . 1 . His entire... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:24-30

Further ritual of the sin offering (see note on Leviticus 4:2 ). The flesh of the sin offerings is to be eaten by the priests and the males of their families in the holy place, that is, within the precincts of the sanctuary, with the exception of the sin offerings of the high priest and of the congregation, whereof … the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal in the holy place , which was to be burnt in the fire without the camp. The holiness of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:24-30

The law of the sin offering. This law comprehends a variety of particulars, which may be ranged under two heads— I. As IT RESPECTS THE BLEEDING . The particulars under this head are: 1 . The place: "Where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed." 2 . The presence: "Before the Lord" ( Leviticus 6:25 ). 3 . The reason: "It is most holy" ( Leviticus 6:25 ). What? II. As IT RESPECTS THE EATING . 1 . It was to be eaten by... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:24-30

Special regulations as to the sin offering. Peculiar sanctity of the flesh and blood of the sin offering, pointing to the atonement. In all cases, whether the sin offering of the people, or of the priest, or of the great day of atonement, the same holiness of the victim and of the blood is insisted upon. Here there is— I. THE NECESSITY OF ATONEMENT . 1 . As prescribed by God, coming forth from his infinite holiness. 2 . As connected with mediation, not in atonement... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:25-29

The holiness of the sin offering. This offering was to expiate offenses committed directly against God, and which involved, therefore, the deeper wrong. A peculiar sacredness attached to the sacrifice. Only the priests might partake of it, for it was "most holy." As all Christians are made "priests unto God," it is permitted them to feed upon him who died to save them from sin. They live by faith in the Son of God. Union with their Divine Lord consecrates them, imperishable principles... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 6:27-29

Communicated sanctity. When any victim had been presented in sacrifice to God, and had been slain, its blood (the "blood of atonement"), and also its flesh, became "most holy" ( Leviticus 6:29 ). And whatsoever was touched by the one or the other received, in virtue of such contact, a communicated sanctity ( Leviticus 6:27 , Leviticus 6:28 ). The lesson here conveyed is that whatsoever comes into close association with a holy one or a holy thing does thereby acquire a measure of... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Leviticus 6:20

See Leviticus 4:3. Aaron’s sons here spoken of (as in Leviticus 6:22) must be the succession of high priests who succeeded him. The day of this offering was probably the eighth day of the ceremony of consecration Leviticus 8:35; Leviticus 9:1, when the high priest appears to have entered upon the duties of his office.A meat offering perpetual - Jewish tradition is in favor of these words implying that this מנחה mı̂nchāh was offered by the high priest as a daily rite from the time of his... read more
