Leviticus 7:9-12 ASV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-10

Observe here, 1. Concerning the trespass-offering, that, being much of the same nature with the sin-offering, it was to be governed by the same rules, Lev. 7:6. When the blood and fat were offered to God to make atonement, the priests were to eat the flesh, as that of the sin-offering, in the holy place. The Jews have a tradition (as we have it from the learned bishop Patrick) concerning the sprinkling of the blood of the trespass-offering round about upon the altar, ?That there was a scarlet... read more

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

And all the meat offering that is baked in the oven ,.... Or "every meat offering" F2 כל מנחה "omne munus", Pagninus, Montanus, Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, &c.; , whether dressed in one way or another, and which was done in one or other of these three ways, of which this was one, baked in an oven heated for that purpose: and all that is dressed in the frying pan ; such as we call pancakes: and in the pan ; which was different from the frying pan; it seems to be... read more

And every meat offering mingled with oil, and dry ,.... Rather it should be rendered "or dry" F3 וחרבה "vel aridum", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator. ; that is, as Jarchi interprets it, that has no oil in it; the meat offering in common, let it be dressed in what way soever, was mingled with oil; but in the poor man's offering for sin, which was as a meat offering, no oil was to be put upon it, Leviticus 5:11 but whether the offering was with or without oil, moist or dry, it ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:11

And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which ye shall offer unto the Lord. Some other laws and rules respecting the oblation of them: in Leviticus 3:1 an account is given of what they should be, both of the herd and flock, and of the burning of the fat of them; and here the several sorts of them are distinctly observed, what should be offered with them, and the part the priest should have of it, and when the flesh of them should be eaten. read more

If he offer it for a thanksgiving ,.... Which Jarchi restrains to the wonderful deliverances of seafaring persons, of travellers, and of such as have been confined in prison, or have laboured under violent diseases and disorders of body; and so Aben Ezra seems to understand it only of thanksgivings on account of being delivered out of distress; but it might be for the common mercies of life, or any particular mercy or instance of divine goodness a man was sensible of, and thought proper in... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:11

Verse 11 Leviticus 7:11.And this is the law of the sacrifice. I have elsewhere (282) stated my reasons for calling this kind of sacrifice “the sacrifice of prosperities.” That they were offered not only in token of gratitude, but when God’s aid was implored, is plain both from this and other passages; yet in all cases the Jews thus testified that they acknowledged God as the author of all good things, whether they returned thanks for some notable blessing, or sought by His aid to be delivered... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-10

Emphatic truths orthings God lays stress upon. The great particularity and the occasional repetition shown in these ordinances point to the truth that God desired his people to attach very great weight to them. His servants were to understand that he laid great stress upon— I. THE WAY IN WHICH HE WAS APPROACHED IN WORSHIP . Distinctions were drawn between different offerings, the import of which we now find it hard to trace. Though, indeed, it is stated that "as the... read more
