Contextual Overview
12 Moses spoke to Aaron and to his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar: Take the grain offering that is left from the Lord 's offerings by fire, and eat it unleavened beside the altar, for it is most holy; 13 you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your due and your sons' due, from the offerings by fire to the Lord ; for so I am commanded. 14 But the breast that is elevated and the thigh that is raised, you and your sons and daughters as well may eat in any clean place; for they have been assigned to you and your children from the sacrifices of the offerings of well-being of the people of Israel. 15 The thigh that is raised and the breast that is elevated they shall bring, together with the offerings by fire of the fat, to raise for an elevation offering before the Lord ; they are to be your due and that of your children forever, as the Lord has commanded. 16 Then Moses made inquiry about the goat of the sin offering, and—it had already been burned! He was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's remaining sons, and said, 17 "Why did you not eat the sin offering in the sacred area? For it is most holy, and God has given it to you that you may remove the guilt of the congregation, to make atonement on their behalf before the Lord . 18 Its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary. You should certainly have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded." 19 And Aaron spoke to Moses, "See, today they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the Lord ; and yet such things as these have befallen me! If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been agreeable to the Lord ?" 20 And when Moses heard that, he agreed.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The heave shoulder and wave breast shall they bring,.... Not the priests, but the owners to the priests, Leviticus 7:29:
with the offerings made by fire of the fat: upon the inwards, kidneys, and caul of the liver, which was all burnt:
to wave [it] for a wave offering before the Lord, the shoulder was lifted up, and the breast waved to and fro before the Lord of the whole earth, and towards the several parts of it, to show and own his right to all they had, and then they were given to the priests as a token of it:
and it shall be thine, and thy sons with thee; both the shoulder and the breast:
by a statute for ever, to be observed as long as the ceremonial law and Levitical priesthood lasted, even to the end of the Jewish age and economy, and the coming of the Messiah:
as the Lord hath commanded; Leviticus 7:33.
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 âthe holy placeâ 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 âclean placeâ 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.
