3 All its fat shall be offered: the fat tail and the fat that covers the internal organs,
3 And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof; the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards,
3 And all its fat shall be offered, the fat tail, the fat that covers the entrails,
3 Offer up all the fat: the fat tail, the fat covering the entrails,
3 And he shall offer from it all its fat. The fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails,
3 The priest will then offer all its fat on the altar, including the fat of the broad tail, the fat around the internal organs,
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 7:3
Commentary on Leviticus 7:1-10
(Read Leviticus 7:1-10)
In the sin-offering and the trespass-offering, the sacrifice was divided between the altar and the priest; the offerer had no share, as he had in the peace-offerings. The former expressed repentance and sorrow for sin, therefore it was more proper to fast than feast; the peace-offerings denoted communion with a reconciled God in Christ, the joy and gratitude of a pardoned sinner, and the privileges of a true believer.
