Leviticus 7:1-24 ▼

1 “ And this is the law of the guilt offering: It is holy of holies.

2 In the place where they slaughter the burnt offering, they shall slaughter the guilt offering; and he shall sprinkle its blood on the altar all around.

3 And he shall bring near all its fat from it, the fat tail, and the fat that is covering the entrails,

4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them that is on the flanks, and the lobe of the liver above the kidneys—he shall remove it.

5 And the priest shall burn them on the altar, a fire offering to YHWH; it is a guilt offering.

6 Every male among the priests may eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place; it is holy of holies;

7 Like the sin offering, like the guilt offering; one law is for them. The priest who makes atonement with it, unto him it shall be.

8 And the priest who brings near a burnt offering of a man—the skin of the burnt offering that he has brought near, it is for the priest, for him.

9 And every grain offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is made in the pan or on a griddle,—it shall be for the priest who brings it near, for him.

10 And every grain offering mixed with the oil, or dry, it shall be for all sons of Aaron, each man like his brother.

11 And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings that he shall bring near to YHWH:

12 If he brings it near for thanksgiving, then he shall bring it near with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with the oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with the oil, and well-mixed cakes of fine flour mixed with the oil.

13 Upon the cakes, he shall bring near leavened bread as his offering with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings.

14 And he shall bring near from it one cake from each offering, a contribution to YHWH. For the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings, for him it shall be.

15 And the flesh of the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offering, it shall be eaten on the day of its offering; he shall not leave from it until morning.

16 And if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow or a freewill offering, in the day of his bringing near his sacrifice, it shall be eaten; and on the next day the remainder of it may be eaten;

17 and the remainder from the flesh of the sacrifice in the third day must be burned in the fire.

18 And if from the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten at all in the third day, it shall not be accepted for him who is bringing it near, nor shall it be reckoned to him. It shall be an abomination, and the soul who eats from it shall bear his iniquity.

19 And the flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burned in the fire. And the flesh, every clean one shall eat flesh.

20 And the soul who eats the flesh from the sacrifice of the peace offerings that is to YHWH, and his uncleanness is on him, that soul shall be cut off from his people.

21 And if a soul touches any unclean thing—for uncleanness of man, or for an unclean animal, or for any unclean abomination—and he eats from the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offerings that is to YHWH, then that soul shall be cut off from his people.”

22 And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,

23 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘Any fat of an ox, or sheep, or goat, you? shall not eat.

24 And the fat of a carcass, and the fat of a torn thing, may be used for any work; and eating. you? shall not eat it
