Leviticus 6:21-30

21 In a pan it shall be made with oil; [and when it is] baked, thou shalt bring it in: [and] the baked pieces of the meat-offering shalt thou offer [for] a sweet savor to the LORD.

22 And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead shall offer it: [it is] a statute for ever to the LORD; it shall be wholly burnt.

23 For every meat-offering for the priest shall be wholly burnt: it shall not be eaten.

24 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

25 Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, This [is] the law of the sin-offering: In the place where the burnt-offering is killed shall the sin-offering be killed before the LORD: it [is] most holy.

26 The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.

27 Whatever shall touch the flesh of it shall be holy: and when there is sprinkled of its blood upon any garment, thou shalt wash that on which it was sprinkled in the holy place.

28 But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled shall be broken: and if it shall be boiled in a brazen pot, it shall be both scoured, and rinsed in water.

29 All the males among the priests shall eat of it: it [is] most holy.

30 And no sin-offering, of which [any] of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to make reconciliation in the holy [place], shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the fire.
