Thematic Bible: To be eaten by the priests


Thematic Bible



Next he shall slaughter the male lamb in the place where they slaughter the sin offering and the burnt offering, at the place of the sanctuary—for the guilt offering, like the sin offering, belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

'Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy. 'The guilt offering is like the sin offering, there is one law for them; the priest who makes atonement with it shall have it.

"This shall be yours from the most holy gifts reserved from the fire; every offering of theirs, even every grain offering and every sin offering and every guilt offering, which they shall render to Me, shall be most holy for you and for your sons. "As the most holy gifts you shall eat it; every male shall eat it. It shall be holy to you.
