Leviticus 6:24-30 - Homilies By J.a. Macdonald

The law of the sin offering.

This law comprehends a variety of particulars, which may be ranged under two heads—

I. As IT RESPECTS THE BLEEDING . The particulars under this head are:

1 . The place: "Where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed."

2 . The presence: "Before the Lord" ( Leviticus 6:25 ).

3 . The reason: "It is most holy" ( Leviticus 6:25 ). What?

II. As IT RESPECTS THE EATING .

1 . It was to be eaten by the priest. "The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it."

2 . It was to be eaten in the holy place ( Leviticus 6:26 ).

3 . But certain sin offerings must not be eaten.
