Listen to Levitico 3:5

Levitico 3:5 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 3:5

And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar
That is, the fat of the several parts before mentioned; this signified the sufferings of Christ, by which our peace is made, and by whose death we are reconciled to God: this rite of burning the fat of the inwards of sacrifices was used by the Pagans, and is still retained by the idolatrous Indians to this day F8:

upon the burnt sacrifice;
which, as Gersom says, was the burnt offering of the daily sacrifice of the morning, which was offered first of all sacrifices; so Jarchi says,

``we learn that the daily burnt offering preceded every other offering:''

this was an eminent type of Christ's sacrifice:

which is upon the wood that [is] on the fire;
that is, which burnt offering was laid upon the wood on the fire, and the fat of the peace offering upon that:

[it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord;
as Christ's sacrifice is, ( Ephesians 5:2 ) (See Gill on Leviticus 1:9).

Levitico 3:5 In-Context

3 Poi offerisca il sacerdote, del sacrificio da render grazie, ciò che si ha da ardere al Signore, cioè: il grasso che copre l’interiora, e tutto il grasso che è sopra l’interiora;
4 e i due arnioni, e il grasso che è sopra essi, e quello che è sopra i fianchi; e levi la rete che è sopra il fegato, insieme con gli arnioni.
5 E i figliuoli di Aaronne faccianla bruciare in su l’Altare, sopra l’olocausto che sarà sopra le legne, le quali saranno in sul fuoco; in offerta fatta per fuoco, di soave odore al Signore.
6 E se l’offerta di alcuno, per sacrificio da render grazie al Signore, è del minuto bestiame, maschio o femmina, offeriscala senza difetto.
7 S’egli offerisce per sua offerta una pecora, offeriscala nel cospetto del Signore.
