Verses 8-13
God gave Aaron these instructions too (Numbers 18:8). The priests received all the heave offerings that the Israelites brought to the tabernacle. These were all the gifts that the people presented to God (Numbers 18:8-9; cf. Numbers 5:9). They included parts of the meal, sin, and trespass offerings (Numbers 18:9-10). The skin of some burnt offerings became the priests’ too, but Moses did not mention this, probably because its value was negligible. These were "most holy" offerings (Numbers 18:9). The priest also received what the offerer waved before the Lord in the peace offering (Numbers 18:11) and the gifts of first-fruits that the people offered each year (Numbers 18:12; cf. 2 Chronicles 31:5; Nehemiah 10:36; Nehemiah 10:38).
