Leviticus 6:25 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 6:25

Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, saying, this [is] the
law of the sin [offering]
Or the rules to be observed concerning that, besides what had been already delivered in ( Leviticus 4:1-35 ) :

in the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin
[offering] be killed before the Lord;
and that was on the north side of the altar, see ( Leviticus 1:11 ) and so Aben Ezra and Ben Gersom observe, that the place of slaying every sin offering was the north; and some have observed that Mount Calvary, where our Lord was crucified, lay pretty much to the north of Jerusalem, see ( Psalms 48:2 ) :

it is most holy;
sacred to the Lord, offered up to him, and accepted by him, and typical of the most pure and holy sacrifice of Christ, who was made sin, and an offering for sin, in the room and stead of his people.

Leviticus 6:25 In-Context

23 No part of a grain offering that a priest makes may be eaten; all of it must be burned.

24 The Lord commanded Moses

25 to give Aaron and his sons the following regulations for sin offerings. The animal for a sin offering shall be killed on the north side of the altar, where the animals for the burnt offerings are killed. This is a very holy offering.

26 The priest who sacrifices the animal shall eat it in a holy place, the courtyard of the Tent of the Lord's presence.

27 Anyone or anything that touches the flesh of the animal will be harmed by the power of its holiness. If any article of clothing is spattered with the animal's blood, it must be washed in a holy place.
