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 [The LORD continued,] "These are the instructions for the guilt offering. It is very holy.
2 It must be slaughtered in the same place where the burnt offering is slaughtered. [A priest] will throw the blood against the altar on all sides.
3 He will offer all the fat, the fat from the tail, the fat covering the internal organs,
4 and the two kidneys with the fat on them. He will also remove the lobe of the liver along with the kidneys.
5 The priest will burn them on the altar. It is a guilt offering by fire to the LORD.
