Bible Verse Review

the breasts: Leviticus 7:24, Leviticus 7:26, Leviticus 7:30-34, Exodus 29:27, Exodus 29:28, Isaiah 49:3, Luke 2:13, 1 Peter 4:11

as Moses commanded: The Samaritan text, and thirty manuscripts have, kaasher tzivvah yehowah eth Moshe, "as Jehovah commanded Moses;" which is also the reading of the LXX, Arabic, and Targum of Onkelos, and seems to be the true reading, being supported, not only by these authorities, but by the whole chapter itself.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the breasts and the right shoulder,.... The breasts of the bullock and the ram, and the right shoulders of them both:

Aaron waved for a wave offering before the Lord; which was given to him as his part of the peace offerings, after they had been thus waved before the Lord; whereby an acknowledgment was made that he was Lord of all, and had a right to all they had; in token of which these parts were given to his priests towards their maintenance:

as Moses commanded; see Exodus 29:27.

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.
