Leviticus 7:30 NIV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 7:11-34

All this relates to the peace-offerings: it is the repetition and explication of what we had before, with various additions. I. The nature and intention of the peace-offerings are here more distinctly opened. They were offered either, 1. In thankfulness for some special mercy received, such as recovery from sickness, preservation in a journey, deliverance at sea, redemption out of captivity, all which are specified in Ps. 107:1-43, and for them men are called upon to offer the sacrifice of... read more

His own hands shall bring the offerings of the Lord made by fire ,.... That is, such parts of the peace offerings as were to be burnt with fire, as the fat on several parts described in Leviticus 3:3 the owners of the offerings were to bring them in the manner as will be presently observed: the fat with the breast, it shall he bring ; the fat to be burnt, and the breast for the priest and his sons, as in the following verse Leviticus 7:31 , that the breast may be waved for a... read more

This chapter treats of the ritual of the trespass offering and the peace offerings, as the last chapter treated of that of the burnt offering, the meat offering, and the sin offering.

Ministerial support. cf. 1 Corinthians 9:13 ; 1 Corinthians 10:18 . We have in this chapter a detailed account of the disposal of the offerings already referred to. The leading idea of the passage is the perquisites of the priests, and the Christian counterpart of this is ministerial support. And in this connection let us observe— I. IN ALL THE OFFERINGS THE FIRST CONCERN WAS TO ALLOCATE TO GOD HIMSELF HIS DUE . In particular he had appropriated to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:11-30

Four thoughts on sacred service. We gather from these words— I. THAT THERE IS A JOYOUS AND SOCIAL ELEMENT IN SACRED SERVICE . There were not only sin and burnt offerings, but also meat and peace offerings, in the Hebrew ritual. Those who were reconciled unto God might rejoice, and might rejoice together, before him. They might hold festive gatherings as his servants and as his worshippers; they might eat flesh which had been dedicated, to him, and bread, even ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:14-34

The kingdom of God: lessons from the heave offering. The ceremony of the heave offering and wave offering was a striking incident in the rite of the peace offering. "According to Jewish tradition it was performed by laying the parts on the hands of the offerer, and the priest, putting his hands again underneath, then moving them in a horizontal direction for the waving and in a vertical one for the heaving … the waving was peculiarly connected with the breast, which is thence called the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:28-34

Continuation of the ritual of the peace offerings (see note on Le Leviticus 3:1 ). The equal dignity of the peace offerings with the other offerings is vindicated by the command that the offerer shall bring it with his own hands , whereas it might have been regarded as merely the constituent part of a feast, and so sent by the hand of a servant. The breast and the right shoulder were to be waved and heaved (for "heaved" does not merely mean" taken off," as some have said). The waving... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:28-38

The service of the oblation. In the service of the oblation of the peace offering there are two actors, viz. the offerer and the priest. These had their respective duties, which are severally brought under our notice in the text. We have— I. THE DUTY OF THE OFFERER . 1 . He had to bring his oblation unto the Lord. 2 . He had to bring the fat laid upon the breast. II. THE DUTY OF THE PRIEST . 1 . He had to offer up the oblation. 2 . The... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:28-38

The wave breast and the heave shoulder given to the priests. God's share and his ministers' share must be both fully given and carefully set aside and publicly offered up. Generous support of the sanctuary. I. SERVICE OF GOD 'S HOUSE REQUIRES SPECIAL OFFERINGS ; which should be: 1 . Large and freely bestowed. Reciprocal blessings; those that give receive, and as they give, they receive. 2 . The ministry should be so provided for that the service rendered be... read more
