Leviticus 3:2

Lay his hand upon the head of his offering - See this rite explained in Exodus 29:10 ; (note), and Leviticus 1:4 ; (note). "As the burnt-offering, (Leviticus 1).," says Mr. Ainsworth, "figured our reconciliation to God by the death of Christ, and the meat-offering, (Leviticus 2)., our sanctification in him before God, so this peace-offering signified both Christ's oblation of himself whereby he became our peace and salvation, ( Ephesians 2:14-16 ; Acts 13:47 ; Hebrews 5:9 ; Hebrews 9:28 ;), and our oblation of praise, thanksgiving, and prayer unto God."
