Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar,.... That is, the fat of the several parts before mentioned; this signified the sufferings of Christ, by which our peace is made, and by whose death we are reconciled to God: this rite of burning the fat of the inwards of sacrifices was used by the Pagans, and is still retained by the idolatrous Indians to this day h:
upon the burnt sacrifice; which, as Gersom says, was the burnt offering of the daily sacrifice of the morning, which was offered first of all sacrifices; so Jarchi says,
"we learn that the daily burnt offering preceded every other offering:''
this was an eminent type of Christ's sacrifice:
which is upon the wood that [is] on the fire; that is, which burnt offering was laid upon the wood on the fire, and the fat of the peace offering upon that:
[it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord; as Christ's sacrifice is, Ephesians 5:2
Ephesians 5:2- :.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Leviticus 3:5. Aaron's sons shall burn it — As the fat was deemed the most valuable part of the animal, it was offered in preference to all other parts; and the heathens probably borrowed this custom from the Jews, for they burnt the omentum or caul in honour of their gods.
