Contextual Overview

11 And whatsoever soul shall touch any unclean thing, either of the uncleanness of a man, or of unclean quadrupeds, or any unclean abominable thing, and shall eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace-offering, which is the Lord’s, that soul shall perish from his people. 12 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 13 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no fat of oxen or sheep or goats. 14 And the fat of such animals as have died of themselves, or have been seized of beasts, may be employed for any work; but it shall not be eaten for food. 15 Every one that eats fat off the beasts, from which he will bring a burnt-offering to the Lord—that soul shall perish from his people. 16 Ye shall eat no blood in all your habitations, either of beasts or of birds. 17 Every soul that shall eat blood, that soul shall perish from his people. 18 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 19 Thou shalt also speak to the children of Israel, saying, He that offers a sacrifice of peace-offering, shall bring his gift to the Lord also from the sacrifice of peace-offering. 20 His hands shall bring the burnt-offerings to the Lord; the fat which is on the breast and the lobe of the liver, he shall bring them, so as to set them for a gift before the Lord.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

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 h 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", c.

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 i says,

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

h Maaseh Hakorbanot, c. 9. sect. 17, 18, 21. i Maaseh Hakorbanot, c. 9. sect. 12.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Out of the whole oblation - Rather, out of each offering. That is, one loaf or cake out of each kind of meat-offering was to be a heave-offering Leviticus 7:32 for the officiating priest. According to Jewish tradition, there were to be ten cakes of each kind of bread in every thank-offering. The other cakes were returned to the sacrificer.
