Leviticus 7:4

_IN THE PLACE WHERE THEY KILL THE BURNT OFFERING SHALL THEY KILL THE TRESPASS OFFERING: AND THE BLOOD THEREOF SHALL HE SPRINKLE ROUND ABOUT UPON THE ALTAR._ No JFB commentary on these verses....

1-10 In the sin-offering and the trespass-offering, the sacrifice was divided between the altar and the priest; the offerer had no share, as he had in the peace-offerings. The former expressed repentance and sorrow for sin, therefore it was more proper to fast than feast; the peace-offerings denoted communion with a reconciled God in Christ, the joy and gratitude of a pardoned sinner, and the privileges of a true believer....

Verse Leviticus 7:4. _THE FAT THAT_ IS _ON THEM_] Chiefly the fat that was found in a _detached state_, not mixed with the muscles; such as the _omentum_ or _caul_, the fat of the _mesentery_, the fat about the _kidneys_, c. Leviticus 3:9, c....

See Leviticus 5:14 note. In Leviticus 7:2 “sprinkle” should rather be cast Leviticus 1:5. All the details regarding the parts put on the altar are repeated for each kind of sacrifice, because the matter was one of paramount importance....

EXPOSITION CONTINUATION OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS ADDRESSED TO THE PRIESTS, RESPECTING THE RITUAL OF THE SACRIFICES. 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, beginning Leviticus 7:1 with our Leviticus 7:11

AND THE TWO KIDNEYS, AND THE FAT THAT [IS] ON THEM,.... Which are usually covered with fat: WHICH [IS] BY THE FLANKS: or rather that which is "upon" them y; for this respects not the situation of the kidneys, nor the fat upon them, but the fat which is upon the flanks, as distinct from that, and where there are great collops of it, see Job 15:27: AND THE CAUL [THAT IS] ABOVE THE LIVER; the lobe upon the liver, according to the Septuagint: WITH THE KIDNEYS, IT SHALL HE TAKE AWAY; all the fat before mentioned, together with the kidneys, were to be taken away from the ram of the trespass offering, and burnt, as follows. y אשר על הכסלים "et qui est superiliis", Tigurine version....

6. THE LAWS OF THE OFFERINGS Chapter S 6:8-7:38 _ 1. The law of the burnt offering (Leviticus 6:8)_ 2. The law of the meal offering (Leviticus 6:14) 3. The offering of the high priest (Leviticus 6:19) 4. The law of the sin offering (Leviticus 6:24) 5. The law of the trespass offering (Leviticus 7:1) 6. The law of the sacrifice of the peace offerings (Leviticus 7:11) After Jehovah had given

SUPPLEMENTARY REGULATIONS for guilt offerings and priestly dues. Leviticus 7:1 supplements Leviticus 5:16_ b._ The blood of the victim is to be dashed (not sprinkled) round the altar. The fat, as in other offerings, is to be carefully removed and offered to Yahweh. The priests-' dues are the same with the guilt offering as with the sin offering. (Every guilt offering is also a sin offering, though the reverse, of course, is not the case.) The notice about priests-' dues is fragmentary (see Leviticus 7:28). The priests are to have the hide of the victim; in the sacrificial tariffs of Marseilles and Sippar the hide goes to the priests; at Carthage, to the offerer. Baked, tried, and griddled meal offerings (cf

(5) _The Guilt-Offering. Priestly portions of other offerings_(Leviticus 7:1-10) The similarity between the Guilt-Offering and the Sin-Offering is very close (see Leviticus 7:7). Both are -most holy" and to be killed in the same place (Leviticus 6:25, cp. Leviticus 7:1-2). The parts to be burned on the altar are the same (Leviticus 3:4; Leviticus 3:9-11; Levitic
