Leviticus 1:3

_IF HIS OFFERING BE A BURNT SACRIFICE OF THE HERD, LET HIM OFFER A MALE WITHOUT BLEMISH: HE SHALL OFFER IT OF HIS OWN VOLUNTARY WILL AT THE DOOR OF THE TABERNACLE OF THE CONGREGATION BEFORE THE LORD._ A burnt sacrifice, х_ `OLAAH_ (H5930)] - so called from its being carried up and laid on the altar [and in Greek, holokautooma, from its being wholly consumed on the altar]: no part of it was eaten either by the priests or the offerer. It was designed to propitiate the anger of God incurred by original sin, by sin in general, or by particular transgressions, and on special occasions (which will be noticed as they occur); and its entire combustion indicated the self-dedication of the offerer-his whole nature-his body and soul-as necessary to form sacrifice acceptable to God (Romans 12:1;...

3-9 In the due performance of the Levitical ordinances, the mysteries of the spiritual world are represented by corresponding natural objects; and future events are exhibited in these rites. Without this, the whole will seem unmeaning ceremonies. There is in these things a type of the sufferings of the Son of God, who was to be a sacrifice for the sins of the whole world? The burning body of an animal was but a faint representation of that everlasting misery, which we all have deserved; and which our blessed Lord bore in his body and in his soul, when he died under the load of our iniquities. Observe, 1. The beast to be offered must be without blemish. This signified the strength and purity that were in Christ, and the holy life that should be in his people. 2. The owner must offer it of his own free will. What is done in religion, so as to please God, must be done by love. Christ willi...

Verse Leviticus 1:3. _BURNT-SACRIFICE_] The most important of all the sacrifices offered to God; called by the Septuagint ολοκαυτωμα, because it was _wholly consumed_, which was not the case in any other offering. Leviticus 7:38. _HIS OWN VOLUNTARY WILL_] לרצנו _lirtsono, to gain himself_ _acceptance_ before the Lord: in this way all the versions appear to have understood the original words, and the connection in which they stand obviously requires this meaning....

BURNT - literally, that (offering) which ascends (as a flame). A MALE WITHOUT BLEMISH - Males were required in most offerings, since the stronger sex which takes precedence of the other. But females were allowed in peace-offerings Leviticus 3:1, Leviticus 3:6, and were expressly prescribed in the sin-offerings of the common people Leviticus 4:28, Leviticus 4:32; Leviticus 5:6. AT THE DOOR OF THE TABERNACLE OF THE CONGREGATION - Wherever

PART I THE LAWS AND REGULATIONS RESPECTING SACRIFICES EXPOSITION THE SACRIFICES (chapters 1-7). There are five classes of sacrifices instituted or regulated in the first seven chapters of Leviticus, each of which has its special signification—the burnt offering, the meat offering, the sin offering, the trespass offering, and the peace offering. The burnt offering, in which the whole of the victim was consumed in the fire on God's altar, signifies entire self-surrender on the part of the offerer; the meat offering, a loyal acknowledgment of God's sovereignty; the sin offering, propitiation of wrath in him to whom the offering is made, and expiation of sin in the offerer; the trespass offering, satisfaction for sin; the peace offering, union and communion between the offerer and him to whom the offering is

IF HIS OFFERING [BE] A BURNT SACRIFICE OF THE HERD,.... So called, because consumed by fire, see Leviticus 6:9 even all of it except the skin, and therefore its name with the Greeks is "a whole burnt offering", as in Mark 12:33 its name in Hebrew is עולה, which comes from a word which signifies to "ascend" or "go up", because not only it was carried up to the altar by the priest, which was common to other sacrifices, but being burnt upon it, it ascended upwards in smoke and vapour; it was typical of Christ's dolorous sufferings and death, who therein sustained the fire of divine wrath, and his strength was dried up like a potsherd with it. Jarchi on Leviticus 1:1 says, there were in the burnt offerings mysteries of future things

BURNT-SACRIFICE The burnt-offering 1. typifies Christ offering Himself without spot to God in delight to do His Father's will even in death. 2. it is atoning because the believer has not had this delight in the will of God; and 3. substitutionary (Leviticus 1:4) because Christ did it in the sinner's stead. But the thought of penalty is not prominent. (Hebrews 9:11); (Hebrews 10:5); (Psalms 40:6); (Philippians 2:8). The emphatic words ...

ANALYSIS AND ANNOTATIONS I. THE OFFERINGS THE FOUNDATION OF HOLINESS 1. The Burnt Offering CHAPTER 1 _ 1. The bullock (Leviticus 1:1)_ 2. The sheep or the goat (Leviticus 1:10) 3. The doves or pigeons (Leviticus 1:14) Jehovah spoke out of the tabernacle which had been set up and upon which the cloud descended, filling the Holy of Holies with the glory of the Lord. Thus Leviticus is closely linked with the ending of the book of Exodus. Out of that glory, from between the cherubim, the same Person spoke to Moses, who had spoken to him out of the burning bush and on Mount Sinai. The first three Chapter s with which Leviticus opens form one utterance of Jehovah. The s
