Contextual Overview

1 And this is the law of the guilt offering; it is most holy. 2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, they shall kill the guilt offering, and its blood shall be sprinkled on the altar all around. 3 And all its fat shall be brought near, he shall offer the fat tail of it, and the fat which covers the inward parts, 4 and the two kidneys, and the fat on them, on the flanks, and the lobe above the liver beside the kidneys, he shall remove. 5 And the priest shall burn them as incense on the altar, a fire offering to Jehovah; it is a guilt offering. 6 Every male among the priests shall eat it; it shall be eaten in the holy place. It is most holy. 7 As a sin offering is , so is a guilt offering. One law is for them. The priest who makes atonement by it, it is his. 8 And the priest who brings near any man's burnt offering, the skin of the burnt offering which he has brought near, it is the priest's, his own. 9 And every food offering which was baked in an oven, and every one that is prepared in the stewing pan, and on the griddle, shall be the priest's that offers it; it is his. 10 And every food offering, mixed with oil or dry, it shall be for all the sons of Aaron to a man, as his brother.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar,.... Fat taken off of the several parts before mentioned, and the kidneys: which were to be

[for] an offering made by fire unto the Lord; and was acceptable to him, being typical of the offering of Christ, which is a sweet smelling savour, bearing the fire of divine wrath in the room and stead of his people:

it [is] the trespass [offering]; an offering for a trespass committed, to make atonement for it; and this part of it, the burning of the fat, was properly the offering to the Lord, all the rest were the priest's, as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See Leviticus 5:14 note. In Leviticus 7:2 “sprinkle” should rather be cast Leviticus 1:5. All the details regarding the parts put on the altar are repeated for each kind of sacrifice, because the matter was one of paramount importance.
