Leviticus 6:29 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 6:29

And all the males among the priests shall eat thereof,
&c.] As of the meat offerings, ( Leviticus 6:18 ) and this shows that not the single priest that offered only ate of it, ( Leviticus 6:26 ) but his male children, and not those only, but those of other priests then upon duty, or in the court:

it [is] most holy; (See Gill on Leviticus 6:25).
