Leviticus 7:3 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:3

And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof
To the Lord, that being claimed by him, as in the peace offerings of the herd, and of the flock, whether a bullock or cow, a lamb or a goat, ( Leviticus 3:3 ) and in the sin offering of the bullock, ( Leviticus 1:8 ) :

and the rump,
or tail, which of sheep and rams, for the trespass offering, was very large and fat in those countries; (See Gill on Exodus 29:22) (See Gill on Leviticus 3:9):

and the fat that covereth the inwards;
called the "omentum".

Leviticus 7:3 In-Context

1 "'This is the law for the guilt offering: it is especially holy.
2 They are to slaughter the guilt offering in the place where they slaughter the burnt offering, and its blood is to be splashed against all sides of the altar.
3 He is to offer all its fat - the fat tail, the fat covering the inner organs,
4 the two kidneys, the fat on them near the flanks, and the covering of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys.
5 The cohen will make them go up in smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire to ADONAI ; it is a guilt offering.
