Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the two kidneys, and the fat that [is] on them,.... Which are usually covered with fat:

which [is] by the flanks: or rather that which is "upon" them y; for this respects not the situation of the kidneys, nor the fat upon them, but the fat which is upon the flanks, as distinct from that, and where there are great collops of it, see Job 15:27:

and the caul [that is] above the liver; the lobe upon the liver, according to the Septuagint:

with the kidneys, it shall he take away; all the fat before mentioned, together with the kidneys, were to be taken away from the ram of the trespass offering, and burnt, as follows.

y אשר על הכסלים "et qui est superiliis", Tigurine version.

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.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Leviticus 7:4. The fat that is on them — Chiefly the fat that was found in a detached state, not mixed with the muscles; such as the omentum or caul, the fat of the mesentery, the fat about the kidneys, &c. Leviticus 3:9, &c.
