Contextual Overview

8 So Aaron came to the altar and killed the calf of the sin gift, which was for himself. 9 The sons of Aaron gave the blood to him. He put his finger in the blood and put some on the horns of the altar. He poured out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. 10 But he burned on the altar the fat and the kidneys and the part that is on the liver from the sin gift, just as the Lord had told Moses. 11 He burned the flesh and the skin away from the tents. 12 Then he killed the burnt gift. Aaron's sons handed the blood to him and he put it around on the altar. 13 They gave the burnt gift to him in pieces, with the head. And he burned them on the altar. 14 He washed the inside parts and legs and burned them on the altar with the burnt gift. 15 Then he gave the people's gift. He took the goat of the sin gift which was for the people. And he killed it and gave it for sin, like the first sin gift. 16 He gave the burnt gift. He gave it just the way the Law said. 17 Next he gave the grain gift. He filled his hand with some of the grain and burned it on the altar beside the burnt gift of the morning.

and he burnt the fat upon the altar; after having been waved.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

In this first complete series of offerings made by the high priest, the sacrifices take their appointed order; first, the sin-offering to make atonement; then the burnt-offering, to signify the surrender of the body, soul and spirit to Yahweh in heaven; and lastly the peace-offering, to show forth the communion vouchsafed to those who are justified and sanctified. See Leviticus 8:14 note.
