The priest burns them on the Altar as a gift to God . It is a Compensation-Offering. Any male from among the priests' families may eat it. But it must be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy.

Contextual Overview

¹ "‘These are the teachings about the penalty offering, which is most holy: ² The penalty offering must be killed where the whole burnt offering is killed. Then the priest must sprinkle its blood on all sides of the altar. ³ He must offer all the fat from the penalty offering—the fat tail, the fat that covers the inner organs, ⁴ both kidneys with the fat that is on them near the lower back muscle, and the best part of the liver, which is to be removed with the kidneys. ⁵ The priest must burn all these things on the altar as an offering made by fire to the Lord . It is a penalty offering. ⁶ Any male in a priest's family may eat it. It is most holy, so it must be eaten in a holy place. ⁷ "‘The penalty offering is like the sin offering in that the teachings are the same for both. The priest who offers the sacrifice to remove sins will get the meat for food. ⁸ The priest who offers the burnt offering may also have the skin from it. ⁹ Every grain offering that is baked in an oven, cooked on a griddle, or baked in a dish belongs to the priest who offers it. ¹⁰ Every grain offering, either dry or mixed with oil, belongs to the priests, and all priests will share alike.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Likewise this [is] the law of the trespass [offering],.... Or the various rites and rules to be observed at the offering of it: the persons for whom it was to be made are described in the two preceding chapters, Leviticus 5:1 both such that sinned through ignorance, and knowingly, and here the place and parts of the offering, and how to be disposed of, are declared:

it [is] most holy; wholly devoted for sacred use, either to the Lord, or to his priests; there were some things the Jews call light holy things, and others most holy in the highest degree, of this sort was the trespass offering.

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.
