11 Y el cuero del becerro, y toda su carne, con su cabeza, y sus piernas, y sus intestinos, y su estiércol,

Levítico 4:11 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 4:11

And the skin of the bullock
Not taken off; for the sin offerings that were burnt were not flayed at all, but were cut in pieces with their skins on them F1; in other burnt offerings the skin was taken off, and was a perquisite of the priest, ( Leviticus 7:8 ) but this being an offering for the priest, the skin was burnt with the rest:

and all his flesh, with his head, and with his legs, and his
inwards, and his dung;
the burning of these denoted the sufferings of Christ, and these several parts the extent of them, they reaching to all parts of his body as stretched upon the cross; and the dung particularly the reproach of them, he dying the death of the cross, and was made sin and a curse for his people.

Levítico 4:11 In-Context

9 Y los dos riñones, y el sebo que está sobre ellos, y el que está sobre los ijares, y con los riñones quitará el redaño de sobre el hígado,
10 De la manera que se quita del buey del sacrificio de las paces: y el sacerdote lo hará arder sobre el altar del holocausto.
11 Y el cuero del becerro, y toda su carne, con su cabeza, y sus piernas, y sus intestinos, y su estiércol,
12 En fin, todo el becerro sacará fuera del campo, á un lugar limpio, donde se echan las cenizas, y lo quemará al fuego sobre la leña: en donde se echan las cenizas será quemado.
13 Y si toda la congregación de Israel hubiere errado, y el negocio estuviere oculto á los ojos del pueblo, y hubieren hecho algo contra alguno de los mandamientos de Jehová en cosas que no se han de hacer, y fueren culpables;
