Leviticus 7:3 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:3

And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof
To the Lord, that being claimed by him, as in the peace offerings of the herd, and of the flock, whether a bullock or cow, a lamb or a goat, ( Leviticus 3:3 ) and in the sin offering of the bullock, ( Leviticus 1:8 ) :

and the rump,
or tail, which of sheep and rams, for the trespass offering, was very large and fat in those countries; (See Gill on Exodus 29:22) (See Gill on Leviticus 3:9):

and the fat that covereth the inwards;
called the "omentum".

Leviticus 7:3 In-Context

1 "This is the law of the guilt offering. It is most holy;
2 in the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the guilt offering, and its blood shall be thrown on the altar round about.
3 And all its fat shall be offered, the fat tail, the fat that covers the entrails,
4 the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the appendage of the liver which he shall take away with the kidneys;
5 the priest shall burn them on the altar as an offering by fire to the LORD; it is a guilt offering.
