Leviticus 7:1-38

Directions to the Priests (continued)

1-10. The Guilt Offering. Leviticus 7:8 refer to private offerings and the priest's share in them.

11-21. The Peace Offering. Three kinds of peace offerings are distinguished here, viz. the thank offering (Leviticus 7:12), and the votive and free will offerings (Leviticus 7:16). The former, as its name implies, would be presented after a benefit had been received; the latter, while the benefit was still expected, as an accompaniment of supplication.
