Levítico 6:23 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 6:23

For every meat offering for the priest shall be wholly
burnt
Wherefore the priest that offered this for the high priest got nothing by it: he served him gratis:

it shall not be eaten;
neither by himself, nor any other priest. The priests by eating the offerings of the people bore their iniquities, and made atonement for them, ( Leviticus 10:17 ) but the priests might not eat their own sacrifices, to show that they could not bear their own sins, and make atonement for them; and this proves the insufficiency of the legal sacrifices, and the need there was for one to arise of another order to take away sin; and it is thought by some to be typical of the active obedience of Christ ^F23, every day yielded to the law and will of God, and is perfect, as the word here signifies, and to be distinguished from (hlwe) , "a burnt offering".
