Leviticus 7:34 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:34

For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken of
the children of Israel
These two parts were particularly pitched upon and selected:

from off the sacrifices of their peace offering;
the rest being allowed the owners, besides what were burnt:

and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons, by a
statute for ever from among the children of Israel;
as long as the priesthood lasted, even to the coming of the Messiah, in whom all these sacrifices would have their accomplishment and their end.

Leviticus 7:34 In-Context

32 The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave offering out of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
33 He among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.
34 For the waved breast and the heaved thigh I have taken from the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel.'"
35 This is the anointing portion of Aaron, and the anointing portion of his sons, out of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister to Yahweh in the priest's office;
36 which Yahweh commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is their portion forever throughout their generations.
