Leviticus 19:7 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 19:7

And if it be eaten at all on the third day
Or "in eating be eaten" ^F11 any of it be eaten, the least bit of it:

it [is] abominable;
it is as any common thing, as if it was no sacrifice; yea, as if it was corrupt and putrefied flesh; nay, as what is abominable to God: and therefore it follows,

it shall not be accepted;
of the Lord, but rejected, his will not being attended to.

Leviticus 19:7 In-Context

5 If ye offer in sacrifice a peace offering to the Lord, that he may be favourable:

6 You shall eat it on the same day it was offered, and the next day. And whatsoever shall be left until the third day, you shall burn with fire.

7 If after two days any man eat thereof, he shall be profane and guilty of impiety:

8 And shall bear his iniquity, because he hath defiled the holy thing of the Lord. And that soul shall perish from among his people.

9 When thou reapest the corn of thy land, thou shalt not cut down all that is on the face of the earth to the very ground: nor shalt thou gather the ears that remain.
