LEVITICUS—NOTE ON Leviticus 1:5 Atonement is achieved through both the sacrifice and the priests who represent the Lord. Food offering is not a specific name of an offering but a more general term for what is “consumed” by the Lord in the fire. In other offerings, it is often coupled with a pleasing aroma (v. Leviticus 1:9; compare Genesis 8:21), implying the Lord’s acceptance (Leviticus 1:3).
