Leviticus 7:5 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:5

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar
Fat taken off of the several parts before mentioned, and the kidneys: which were to be

[for] an offering made by fire unto the Lord;
and was acceptable to him, being typical of the offering of Christ, which is a sweet smelling savour, bearing the fire of divine wrath in the room and stead of his people:

it [is] the trespass [offering];
an offering for a trespass committed, to make atonement for it; and this part of it, the burning of the fat, was properly the offering to the Lord, all the rest were the priest's, as follows.

Leviticus 7:5 In-Context

3 He is to offer all its fat - the fat tail, the fat covering the inner organs,

4 the two kidneys, the fat on them near the flanks, and the covering of the liver, which he will remove with the kidneys.

5 The cohen will make them go up in smoke on the altar as an offering made by fire to ADONAI ; it is a guilt offering.

6 Every male from a family of cohanim may eat it; it is to be eaten in a holy place; it is especially holy.

7 The guilt offering is like the sin offering; the same law governs them - it will belong to the cohen who uses it to make atonement.
