71 And this is the law of the offering for wrongdoing: it is most holy. 2 They are to put to death the offering for wrongdoing in the same place as the burned offering; and the priest is to put the blood on and round the altar. 3 And all the fat of it, the fat tail and the fat covering the inside parts, is to be given as an offering. 4 And the two kidneys, and the fat on them, which is by the top of the legs, and the fat joining the liver and the kidneys, he is to take away: 5 They are to be burned by the priest on the altar for an offering made by fire to the Lord: it is an offering for wrongdoing. 6 Every male among the priests may have it as food in a holy place: it is most holy. 7 As is the sin-offering, so is the offering for wrongdoing; there is one law for them: the priest who makes the offering to take away sin, he is to have it. 8 And the priest offering any man's burned offering for him, may have the skin of the burned offering which is offered by him. 9 And every meal offering which is cooked in the oven and everything made in a cooking pot or on a flat plate, is for the priest by whom it is offered. 10 And every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, is for all the sons of Aaron in equal measure.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 7:1-10

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.
