Leviticus 7:1 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:1

Likewise this [is] the law of the trespass [offering]
Or the various rites and rules to be observed at the offering of it: the persons for whom it was to be made are described in the two preceding chapters, ( Leviticus 5:1-6:30 ) both such that sinned through ignorance, and knowingly, and here the place and parts of the offering, and how to be disposed of, are declared:

it [is] most holy;
wholly devoted for sacred use, either to the Lord, or to his priests; there were some things the Jews call light holy things, and others most holy in the highest degree, of this sort was the trespass offering.

Leviticus 7:1 In-Context

1 "'This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most holy.
2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall kill the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle on the altar round about.
3 He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that covers the innards,
4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away;
5 and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to Yahweh: it is a trespass offering.
