Expositor's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:11-34

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

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:1-38

THE LAW OF THE TRESPASS OFFERING (vv. 1-10) In common with all the other offerings, the trespass offering was “most holy.” It was to be killed in the same place as the burnt offering. Its blood was to be sprinkled all around on the altar. The fat tail, the fat that covered the entrails, the two kidneys and the fat that was on them, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver were to be removed and burnt on the altar by the priest. These all speak of characteristics of Christ that are entirely... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-38

THE SIN AND TRESPASS OFFERINGS THE SIN OFFERING The data for the sin offering is found in Leviticus 4:1-35 ; Leviticus 5:1-13 and Leviticus 6:24-30 . As to the name of this offering, it will be seen that “sin” is mentioned here for the first time in connection with the law of the offerings. The idea of sin is included in the others, but it was not the predominating idea as it is here. There was atonement for sin in the other offerings, but rather for sin in man’s nature than the actual... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Leviticus 7:9-14

Still let the Reader observe, the doctrine of sprinkling is carefully kept up. Reader, JESUS must be applied as well as revealed; and his blood sprinkled on the soul, as well as shed for the soul. Hebrews 12:24 . But who shall sprinkle the soul with the blood of JESUS? HOLY SPIRIT! is it not thy gracious office? Oh! Holy LORD! do thou mercifully take of that precious blood, and so reveal it as to give me to see and believe its sovereign efficacy, for then will it be truly and fully applied to... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:11-27

11-27 As to the peace-offerings, in the expression of their sense of mercy, God left them more at liberty, than in the expression of their sense of sin; that their sacrifices, being free-will offerings, might be the more acceptable, while, by obliging them to bring the sacrifices of atonement, God shows the necessity of the great Propitiation. The main reason why blood was forbidden of old, was because the Lord had appointed blood for an atonement. This use, being figurative, had its end in... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Leviticus 7:11-21

Of Peace-offerings. v. 11. And this is the law of sacrifice of peace-offerings which he shall offer unto the Lord. The peace-offerings were made for the purpose of establishing and maintaining the fellowship with the covenant God, and may be divided into offerings of thanksgiving and into vow or voluntary offerings. v. 12. If he offer it for a thanksgiving, in grateful acknowledgment of some special favor shown him by the Lord, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Leviticus 7:11-21

Law of the Peace-Offering Leviticus 7:11-21 Here begins the law of the peace-offerings, containing additional directions to those given in Leviticus 3:1-17 . They are classified as (1) thank-offerings, (2) vow-offerings and (3) voluntary-offerings. When the soul is full of gratitude, as was Hannah when Samuel was granted her in answer to prayer, what is more natural than that it should render some tangible recognition to Him, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift! We are ready enough... read more
