Leviticus 4:8

8 et adipem vituli auferet pro peccato tam eum qui operit vitalia quam omnia quae intrinsecus sunt

Leviticus 4:8 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 4:8

And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock
for the sin offering
When the priest had killed the bullock, and sprinkled and poured the blood, as before commanded; he then cut up the bullock, and took out its inwards, and put them in a vessel, and salted them, and strowed them on the fires F26, and burnt them, and the fat of them, as he did with the sacrifice of the peace offerings; so that what is here said, and in the two next verses ( Leviticus 4:9 Leviticus 4:10 ) , is the same with what is ordered concerning them in ( Leviticus 3:3-5 ) (See Gill on Leviticus 3:3) (See Gill on Leviticus 3:4) (See Gill on Leviticus 3:5). Jarchi and Gersom both observe that they agree, that as one brings peace into the world, so does the other.

Leviticus 4:8 In-Context

6 cumque intinxerit digitum in sanguinem asperget eo septies coram Domino contra velum sanctuarii
7 ponetque de eodem sanguine super cornua altaris thymiamatis gratissimi Domino quod est in tabernaculo testimonii omnem autem reliquum sanguinem fundet in basim altaris holocausti in introitu tabernaculi
8 et adipem vituli auferet pro peccato tam eum qui operit vitalia quam omnia quae intrinsecus sunt
9 duos renunculos et reticulum quod est super eos iuxta ilia et adipem iecoris cum renunculis
10 sicut aufertur de vitulo hostiae pacificorum et adolebit ea super altare holocausti
