Leviticus 7:4 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:4

And the two kidneys, and the fat that [is] on them
Which are usually covered with fat:

which [is] by the flanks:
or rather that which is "upon" them F25; for this respects not the situation of the kidneys, nor the fat upon them, but the fat which is upon the flanks, as distinct from that, and where there are great collops of it, see ( Job 15:27 ) :

and the caul [that is] above the liver;
the lobe upon the liver, according to the Septuagint:

with the kidneys, it shall he take away;
all the fat before mentioned, together with the kidneys, were to be taken away from the ram of the trespass offering, and burnt, as follows.

Leviticus 7:4 In-Context

2 idcirco ubi immolatur holocaustum mactabitur et victima pro delicto sanguis eius per gyrum fundetur altaris
3 offerent ex ea caudam et adipem qui operit vitalia
4 duos renunculos et pinguedinem quae iuxta ilia est reticulumque iecoris cum renunculis
5 et adolebit ea sacerdos super altare incensum est Domini pro delicto
6 omnis masculus de sacerdotali genere in loco sancto vescetur his carnibus quia sanctum sanctorum est
