Leviticus 7:15-17 ASV

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

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:15

And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving ,.... Having given directions about the cakes and bread that went along with the peace offerings, offered in thankfulness for mercies received; instructions are next given about eating the flesh of them; and the order is, that that shall be eaten the same day that it is offered ; partly by him that brought them, and his family, and partly by the poor he was to invite to eat thereof; and also by the priests and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:16

But if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow ,.... Be on account of a vow made, as, that if he was favoured with such and such benefits, or delivered out of such and such troubles and distresses, then he would offer such a sacrifice: or a voluntary offering ; without any condition or obligation; what from the mere motion of his mind he freely offered, not being directed to it by any command of God, or under any necessity from a vow of his own, and without any view to; any future good to... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 7:17

But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day ,.... What remained of it uneaten on the second day, and was kept till the third: shall be burnt with fire ; that it might neither corrupt, nor be put to superstitious uses, nor be of any profit in any respect; that so niggardliness and distrust of the care of Providence might be discouraged: perhaps some respect may be had in the type to the resurrection of Christ on the third day, having seen no corruption. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:15

He shall not leave any of it until the morning - Because in such a hot country it was apt to putrefy, and as it was considered to be holy, it would have been very improper to expose that to putrefaction which had been consecrated to the Divine Being. Mr. Harmer supposes that the law here refers rather to the custom of drying flesh which had been devoted to religious purposes, which is practiced among the Mohammedans to the present time. This, he thinks, might have given rise to the... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 7:16

Verse 16 16.But if the sacrifice of his offering. I have observed a little above that it is not a conditional but a simple vow which is here meant; because, if a person were under the obligation of a vow, (287) his payment was an act of thanksgiving, and thus his sacrifice was comprised under the first head. But it would not be without absurdity that similar things should be distinguished as if they differed. But inasmuch as many made gratuitous vows, Moses combines this kind of sacrifice with... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:1-38

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. The LXX . version attaches the first ten verses of this chapter to Leviticus 6:1-30 , beginning Leviticus 7:1-38 with our Leviticus 7:11 . read more

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 7:9-15

The peace offering of thanksgiving. At the conclusion of the instructions concerning the trespass offering, we have a few directions concerning the meat offering ( Leviticus 7:9 , Leviticus 7:10 ). Whatever of it was dressed was to be given to the priest that offered it, to be consumed by himself and his family. But that "mingled with oil, and dry" was to be divided amongst the sons of Aaron. The reason appears to be economical. What was prepared would not keep, and was therefore to be... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Leviticus 7:11-21

Further ritual of the peace offering (see note on Leviticus 3:1 ). There are three sorts of peace offerings—thank offerings ( Leviticus 7:12-15 ), votive offerings, and voluntary offerings ( Leviticus 7:16-18 ). Of these, the thank offerings were made in thankful memorial for past mercies; votive offerings were made in fulfillment of a vow previously taken, that such offering should be presented if a terrain condition were fulfilled. Voluntary offerings differ from votive offerings by... read more
