Deuteronomy 12:27

And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the

one as well as another, not only of the burnt offerings, but of the sin offerings, trespass offerings, and peace offerings:

shall be poured out upon the altar of the Lord thy God:
either sprinkled on it, or poured out at the bottom of it; see ( Leviticus 1:1-1:17 ) ( 3:1-4:35 ) ,

and thou shalt eat the flesh;
that is, of the peace offerings, for of them only might the people eat, and that only before the Lord.
