Levítico 23:20 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 23:20

And the priests shall wave them with the bread of the
firstfruits
The two loaves called the two wave loaves, ( Leviticus 23:17 ) ; with which were waved the two lambs of the peace offerings; and these alive, as Jarchi and Ben Gersom intimate. The Jewish doctors

FOOTNOTES:

F26 dispute, whether, in waving, the lambs were put above the bread, or the bread above the lambs; which some reconcile by observing, that the bread was put by the side of the lambs:

[for] a wave offering before the Lord;
being waved this way and that way, upwards and downwards, and towards the several quarters of the world, showing that the fruits of the earth were owing to the providential goodness of God everywhere:

with the two lambs;
not that all the above sacrifices were waved, or any part of them, along with the lambs, but the wave loaves, and they were waved together, as one wave offering to the Lord:

they shall be holy to the Lord for the priests;
both the loaves and the lambs, these were separated and devoted wholly to the Lord, and to be eaten by his priests; the peace offerings of a single person were light holy things, as Jarchi says; but the peace offerings of the congregation, as these were, are the most holy things, and so to be eaten only by the priests, and by the males only, in the court of the tabernacle.

Levítico 23:20 In-Context

18 Junto con el pan, presenta siete corderos de un año sin defecto, un becerro y dos carneros como ofrendas quemadas al Señor
. Estas ofrendas quemadas, junto con las ofrendas de grano y las ofrendas líquidas, serán una ofrenda especial, un aroma agradable al Señor
.

19 Luego deberás ofrecer un chivo como ofrenda por el pecado y dos corderos de un año como ofrenda de paz.

20 »El sacerdote levantará los dos corderos como una ofrenda especial al Señor
, junto con los panes que representan la primera de las cosechas. Estas ofrendas, que son santas para el Señor
, les pertenecen a los sacerdotes.

21 Ese mismo día será proclamado un día oficial de asamblea santa, un día en que no harás ningún trabajo habitual. Esta es una ley perpetua para ti, que se cumplirá de generación en generación dondequiera que vivas.

22 »Cuando recojas las cosechas de tu tierra, no siegues el grano en las orillas de tus campos ni levantes lo que caiga de los segadores. Déjalos para los pobres y los extranjeros que viven entre ustedes. Yo soy el Señor
tu Dios».
