Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 1:3-9

If a man were rich and could afford it, it is supposed that he would bring his burnt-sacrifice, with which he designed to honour God, out of his herd of larger cattle. He that considers that God is the best that is will resolve to give him the best he has, else he gives him not the glory due unto his name. Now if a man determined to kill a bullock, not for an entertainment for his family and friends, but for a sacrifice to his God, these rules must be religiously observed:?1. The beast to be... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 1:10-17

Here we have the laws concerning the burnt-offerings, which were of the flock or of the fowls. Those of the middle rank, that could not well afford to offer a bullock, would bring a sheep or a goat; and those that were not able to do that should be accepted of God if they brought a turtle-dove or a pigeon. For God, in his law and in his gospel, as well as in his providence, considers the poor. It is observable that those creatures were chosen for sacrifice which were most mild and gentle,... read more

But the inwards and his legs shall he wash in water ,.... This was first done in a room in the court of the temple, called לשכת המדחין , "the room of the washers", or the washing room, where they washed the inwards of the holy things F1 Misn. Middot, c. 5. sect. 2. Maimon Beth Habechirah, c. 5. sect. 17. ; and after that they washed them upon the marble tables between the pillars, where they washed them three times at least F2 Ib. c. 3. sect. 5. & Tamid, c. 4. sect. 2.... read more

And if his offering be of the flocks ,.... As it might be: namely , of the sheep, or of the goats for a burnt sacrifice ; which were both typical of Christ; see Gill on Leviticus 1:2 . he shall bring it a male without blemish ; See Gill on Leviticus 1:3 . read more

And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the Lord ,.... This is a circumstance not mentioned in the killing of the bullock: Maimonides F7 In Misn. Zebachim, c. 5. sect. 1. says, there was a square place from the wall of the altar northward, to the wall of the court, and it was sixty cubits, and all that was over against the breadth of this, from the wall of the porch to the eastern wall, and it is seventy six cubits; and this foursquare place is called the... read more

And he shall cut it into his pieces, with his head and his fat ,.... Or "his body", as the Targum of Jonathan; this was to be cut in pieces in the same manner as the bullock; see Gill on Leviticus 1:6 , and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire, which is on the altar ; See Gill on Leviticus 1:8 . read more

But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water ,.... As he did the bullock, Leviticus 1:9 , and the priest shall bring it all : all the parts to the ascent of the altar, as the Jews F9 T. Bab. Pesachim, fol. 65. 2. & Yoma, fol. 27. 1. Chagigah, fol. 11. 1. interpret it; all the parts and pieces of it, even the very wool on the sheep's head, and the hair on the goat's beard, their bones, sinews, and horns, and hoofs F11 Misn. Zebachim, c. 9. sect. 5. Maimon.... read more

And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the Lord be of fowls ,.... As it might be for the poorer sort, who could not offer a bullock, nor a sheep, or a lamb, Leviticus 5:7 , then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons ; the Jewish writers all agree, that the turtles should be old, and not young, as the pigeons young, and not old; so the Targum of Jonathan, Jarchi, Aben Ezra and Gersom F12 Vid. T. Bab. Cholin, fol. 22. 1, 2. ; the latter gives two... read more

And the priest shall bring it unto the altar ,.... The southeast horn of it; near which was the place of the ashes, into which the crop and its feathers were cast F14 Misn. Zebachim, c. 6. sect. 5. & Bartenora in ib. : and wring off his head ; by twisting it back as it should seem; the word used is only to be found here, and in Leviticus 5:8 the Jews say, it signifies to cut with the nail, and that the priest did this, not with a knife or any other instrument, but with his... read more

And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers ,.... Or "with its meat", or "dung", as Onkelos renders it, meaning that which was in its crop; and so the Jerusalem Targum interprets it, "with its dung"; and Jonathan's paraphrase is, "with its collection", or what was gathered together in the crop; it includes the entrails, as Gersom observes: and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place of the ashes ; where the ashes of the burnt offering were put every day, and every... read more
