14 of all one loaf shall be offered to the Lord for the first fruits, and it shall be the priest's that shall pour the blood of the sacrifice, (and one part of every offering shall be offered to the Lord as a special contribution, and it shall be the priest's who shall throw the blood of the sacrifice against all the sides of the altar,)

Leviticus 7:14 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:14

And of it he shall offer one out of the whole oblation
[for] an heave offering unto the Lord
That is, one out of the unleavened cakes, and out of the unleavened wafers, and out of the cakes fried, and out of the cakes leavened; lo, says Aben Ezra, four at least, and the truth is, adds he, there were ten; and so Maimonides ^F8 says, the priest took out of all the four cakes, one out of every sort, as it is said, "and of it he shall offer one"

and it shall be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace
offerings;
that is, that part of the cakes and bread, which is offered as an heave offering to the Lord, was the portion of the priests; and so Maimonides ^F9 says,

``the bread waved (rather heaved) with the thank offering was eaten by the priests, and the rest of the bread by the owners.''
