THE NEW AMERICAN BIBLE

1 "If someone in presenting a peace offering makes his offering from the herd, he may offer before the LORD either a male or a female animal, but it must be without blemish.

2 He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and then slaughter it at the entrance of the meeting tent; but Aaron's sons, the priests, shall splash its blood on the sides of the altar.

3 From the peace offering he shall offer as an oblation to the LORD the fatty membrane over the inner organs, and all the fat that adheres to them,

4 as well as the two kidneys, with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he shall sever above the kidneys.

5 All this Aaron's sons shall then burn on the altar with the holocaust, on the wood over the fire, as a sweet-smelling oblation to the LORD.

6 "If the peace offering he presents to the LORD is from the flock, he may offer either a male or a female animal, but it must be without blemish.

7 If he presents a lamb as his offering, he shall bring it before the LORD,

8 and after laying his hand on the head of his offering, he shall slaughter it before the meeting tent; but Aaron's sons shall splash its blood on the sides of the altar.

9 As an oblation to the LORD he shall present the fat of the peace offering: the whole fatty tail, which he must sever close to the spine, the fatty membrane over the inner organs, and all the fat that adheres to them,

10 as well as the two kidneys, with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he must sever above the kidneys.

11 All this the priest shall burn on the altar as the food of the LORD'S oblation.

12 "If he presents a goat, he shall bring it before the LORD,

13 and after laying his hand on its head, he shall slaughter it before the meeting tent; but Aaron's sons shall splash its blood on the sides of the altar.

14 From it he shall offer as an oblation to the LORD the fatty membrane over the inner organs, and all the fat that adheres to them,

15 as well as the two kidneys, with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he must sever above the kidneys.

16 All this the priest shall burn on the altar as the food of the sweet-smelling oblation. All the fat belongs to the LORD.

17 This shall be a perpetual ordinance for your descendants wherever they may dwell. You shall not partake of any fat or any blood."

COMMENTARIE

v 1 Peace Offering (Fellowship) is the third sweet savor offering. It can be male or female of cattle without blemish.

 

v 2. The offerer places his hand on the head of the sacrifice as before, to identify himself with it, then kills it. Then the priests throw the blood round about on the altar.

 

v 3-5. The offerer removed the kidneys and all the fat from that general internal area and it was burned by the priests on the altar.

 

 

 

 

 

 

v 6-11. If the offerer brings a lamb, the procedure is about the same as with the bullock, with the extra command that the whole rump was to be taken off next to the backbone, and the priest would burn it along with the kidneys and all the internal fat of that area. The rump, that is the “fat tail”, an Eastern delicacy, was offered as a fellowship meal unto the Lord.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

v 12-17. If the offerer brings a goat, the procedure is the same as when a bullock is offered. In all cases, the portion of the meat not burned, the shoulders and breast, was to be shared by the offerer and eaten with the priests, showing fellowship with the Lord.
In the peace offering, God and man became reconciled and entered into fellowship. In the New Testament, Christ is our peace, Eph. 2:13. We gain peace by simply trusting in Him.
