Contextual Overview

12 Moses said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, "Eat the part of the grain offering that is left from the sacrifices offered by fire to the Lord , but do not add yeast to it. Eat it near the altar because it is most holy. 13 You must eat it in a holy place, because this part of the offerings made by fire to the Lord belongs to you and your sons. I have been commanded to tell you this. 14 "Also, you and your sons and daughters may eat the breast and thigh of the fellowship offering that was presented to the Lord . You must eat them in a clean place; they are your share of the fellowship offerings given by the Israelites. 15 The people must bring the fat from their animals that was part of the offering made by fire, and they must present it to the Lord along with the thigh and the breast of the fellowship offering. They will be the regular share of the offerings for you and your children, as the Lord has commanded." 16 Moses looked for the goat of the sin offering, but it had already been burned up. So he became very angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's remaining sons. He said, 17 "Why didn't you eat that goat in a holy place? It is most holy, and the Lord gave it to you to take away the guilt of the people, to remove their sins so they will belong to the Lord . 18 You didn't bring the goat's blood inside the Holy Place. You were supposed to eat the goat in a holy place, as I commanded!" 19 But Aaron said to Moses, "Today they brought their sin offering and burnt offering before the Lord , but these terrible things have still happened to me! Do you think the Lord would be any happier if I ate the sin offering today?" 20 When Moses heard this, he was satisfied.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And ye shall eat it in the holy place,.... Not in that which was properly so called, but in the court of the tabernacle; at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, as Aben Ezra, in some apartment there; for it was not to be carried out of the sanctuary, and eaten in their own houses or tents, as others might, after mentioned:

because it [is] thy due, and thy sons' due, of the offerings of the Lord made by fire; and not any others; neither his wife nor his daughters, nor any other related to him, or whom he might invite, as in other cases, might eat of it; this none but he and his sons might eat of, and nowhere else but in the sanctuary:

for so I am commanded; to make known and declare this as the will of God.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The argument is, that as such meals were appointed in honor of Yahweh Himself, they ought to be conducted with due reverence and discretion.

Leviticus 10:12

Beside the altar - What is called “the holy place” in Leviticus 10:13, Leviticus 10:17 : it should be rather, a holy place, any part of the holy precinct, as distinguished from a merely “clean place” Leviticus 10:14, either within or without the court of the tabernacle.

Leviticus 10:14

Wave breast and heave shoulder - See Leviticus 7:30 note.
