Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the priest shall burn them upon the altar,.... Which shows that not the fat only, but the inwards and the kidneys, were burnt also; so Maimonides says l, that the priest salted the parts, and burned them upon the altar; and the priests might not have the breast and shoulder (which were what belonged to them) until the parts were burnt:
[it is] the food of the offering made by fire; which the Lord ate of, or accepted of:
for a sweet savour; as a type of the sweet smelling sacrifice of Christ, with which he is well pleased;
all the fat is the Lord's; that is, all that was upon the parts mentioned in the several sacrifices of peace offerings, which was to be taken off and burnt: though the Jewish writers understand it of all fat in general, and so interpret the law that follows.
l Ut supra, (Maaseh Hakorbanot) c. 9. sect. 11.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Rather, as food of an offering made by fire for a sweet savour, shall all the fat be for Yahweh. Our bodily taste and smell furnish figures of the satisfaction with which the Lord accepts the appointed symbols of the true worship of the heart. All that was sent up in the fire of the altar, including the parts of the sin-offering Leviticus 4:31, as well as the burnt-offering (Leviticus 1:9, etc.), was accepted for “a sweet savour”: but the word food may here have a special fitness in its application to the peace-offering, which served for food also to the priests and the offerer, and so symbolized communion between the Lord, His ministers, and His worshippers.
The fat is the Lord’s - The significance of this appears to consist in the fact that its proper development in the animal is, in general, a mark of perfection.
