Numbers 18:9 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 18:9

This shall be thine of the most holy things
For, as observed, there were some lighter and lesser holy things or sacrifices, and others superlatively so: and those are begun with, such as were [reserved] from the fire;
those parts of sacrifices which were not burnt with fire on the altar of burnt offerings: every oblation of theirs;
which is a general word, including various offerings, the particulars follow; every meat offering of theirs:
or bread offering, for they were made of fine flour and oil, and burnt on the altar, the remainder of which was eaten by Aaron and his sons, ( Leviticus 6:14-18 ) ; every sin offering of theirs;
which was offered to make atonement for sin, which also belonged to the priests and their sons, excepting such whose blood was carried into the most holy place, ( Leviticus 6:25-30 ) ; and every trespass offering of theirs, which they shall render unto
me;
which was offered for a trespass committed; what remained of this also, when burnt on the altar, was eaten by the priest and his sons, ( Leviticus 7:5 Leviticus 7:6 ) ; and this sacrifice was a ram, when a trespass was committed, either in the holy things of the Lord, or in wrongs done to men, ( Leviticus 5:15 ) ( 6:6 ) ; Jarchi interprets it of an offering for a trespass committed by rapine or violence to a stranger: these, all of them, it is added, [shall be] most holy for thee and for thy sons;
for their use, and for theirs only.

7 tu autem et filii tui custodite sacerdotium vestrum et omnia quae ad cultum altaris pertinent et intra velum sunt per sacerdotes administrabuntur si quis externus accesserit occidetur
8 locutus est Dominus ad Aaron ecce dedi tibi custodiam primitiarum mearum omnia quae sanctificantur a filiis Israhel tibi tradidi et filiis tuis pro officio sacerdotali legitima sempiterna
9 haec ergo accipies de his quae sanctificantur et oblata sunt Domino omnis oblatio et sacrificium et quicquid pro peccato atque delicto redditur mihi et cedet in sancta sanctorum tuum erit et filiorum tuorum
10 in sanctuario comedes illud mares tantum edent ex eo quia consecratum est tibi
11 primitias autem quas voverint et obtulerint filii Israhel tibi dedi et filiis ac filiabus tuis iure perpetuo qui mundus est in domo tua vescetur eis
