Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead shall offer it,.... The successor of the high priest:

it is a statute for ever unto the Lord; which he by an everlasting statute appointed to be offered to him by every high priest, until the Messiah should come:

it shall be wholly burnt; of a common meat offering only a handful was burnt, and the rest was the priest's; see Leviticus 6:15.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

It shall be wholly burnt - literally, “it shall ascend in fire as a whole burnt-offering.”
