Contextual Overview

1 The Lord said to Moses, 2 "Tell the people of Israel this: ‘When a person sins by accident and does some things the Lord has commanded not to be done, that person must do these things: 3 "‘If the appointed priest sins so that he brings guilt on the people, then he must offer a young bull to the Lord , one that has nothing wrong with it, as a sin offering for the sin he has done. 4 He will bring the bull to the entrance of the Meeting Tent in front of the Lord , put his hand on its head, and kill it before the Lord . 5 Then the appointed priest must bring some of the bull's blood into the Meeting Tent. 6 The priest is to dip his finger into the blood and sprinkle it seven times before the Lord in front of the curtain of the Most Holy Place. 7 The priest must also put some of the blood on the corners of the altar of incense that stands before the Lord in the Meeting Tent. The rest of the blood he must pour out at the bottom of the altar of burnt offering, which is at the entrance of the Meeting Tent. 8 He must remove all the fat from the bull of the sin offering—the fat on and around the inner organs, 9 both kidneys with the fat that is on them near the lower back muscle, and the best part of the liver which he will remove with the kidneys. 10 (He must do this in the same way the fat is removed from the bull of the fellowship offering.) Then the priest must burn the animal parts on the altar of burnt offering.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he shall take off from it all the fat of the bullock for the sin offering,.... When the priest had killed the bullock, and sprinkled and poured the blood, as before commanded; he then cut up the bullock, and took out its inwards, and put them in a vessel, and salted them, and strowed them on the fires z, and burnt them, and the fat of them, as he did with the sacrifice of the peace offerings; so that what is here said, and in the two next verses Leviticus 4:9, is the same with what is ordered concerning them in Leviticus 3:3

Leviticus 3:3- : Leviticus 3:3- : Leviticus 3:3- :. Jarchi and Gersom both observe that they agree, that as one brings peace into the world, so does the other.

z Maimon. ib. (Maasch Hakorbanot) c. 7. sect. 2.
