Leviticus Chapter 6



1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the LORD, and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered him to keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken away by violence, or hath deceived his neighbour;

3 Or have found that which was lost, and lieth concerning it, and sweareth falsely; in any of all these that a man doeth, sinning therein:

4 Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,

5 Or all that about which he hath sworn falsely; he shall even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more thereto, and give it unto him to whom it appertaineth, in the day of his trespass offering.

6 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest:

7 And the priest shall make an atonement for him before the LORD: and it shall be forgiven him for any thing of all that he hath done in trespassing therein.

8 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

9 Command Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the law of the burnt offering: It is the burnt offering, because of the burning upon the altar all night unto the morning, and the fire of the altar shall be burning in it.

10 And the priest shall put on his linen garment, and his linen breeches shall he put upon his flesh, and take up the ashes which the fire hath consumed with the burnt offering on the altar, and he shall put them beside the altar.

11 And he shall put off his garments, and put on other garments, and carry forth the ashes without the camp unto a clean place.

12 And the fire upon the altar shall be burning in it; it shall not be put out: and the priest shall burn wood on it every morning, and lay the burnt offering in order upon it; and he shall burn thereon the fat of the peace offerings.

13 The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.

14 And this is the law of the meat offering: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, before the altar.

15 And he shall take of it his handful, of the flour of the meat offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which is upon the meat offering, and shall burn it upon the altar for a sweet savour, even the memorial of it, unto the LORD.

16 And the remainder thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat: with unleavened bread shall it be eaten in the holy place; in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation they shall eat it.

17 It shall not be baken with leaven. I have given it unto them for their portion of my offerings made by fire; it is most holy, as is the sin offering, and as the trespass offering.

18 All the males among the children of Aaron shall eat of it. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations concerning the offerings of the LORD made by fire: every one that toucheth them shall be holy.

19 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

20 This is the offering of Aaron and of his sons, which they shall offer unto the LORD in the day when he is anointed; the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meat offering perpetual, half of it in the morning, and half thereof at night.

21 In a pan it shall be made with oil; and when it is baken, thou shalt bring it in: and the baken pieces of the meat offering shalt thou offer for a sweet savour unto the LORD.

22 And the priest of his sons that is anointed in his stead shall offer it: it is a statute for ever unto the LORD; it shall be wholly burnt.

23 For every meat offering for the priest shall be wholly burnt: it shall not be eaten.

24 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

25 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, saying, This is the law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt offering is killed shall the sin offering be killed before the LORD: it is most holy.

26 The priest that offereth it for sin shall eat it: in the holy place shall it be eaten, in the court of the tabernacle of the congregation.

27 Whatsoever shall touch the flesh thereof shall be holy: and when there is sprinkled of the blood thereof upon any garment, thou shalt wash that whereon it was sprinkled in the holy place.

28 But the earthen vessel wherein it is sodden shall be broken: and if it be sodden in a brasen pot, it shall be both scoured, and rinsed in water.

29 All the males among the priests shall eat thereof: it is most holy.

30 And no sin offering, whereof any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the fire.

...scoured of all blood and rinsed in water.

And finally, no sin offering from which the blood is taken into the tabernacle of meeting and holy place is to be eaten by the priests. It is to be burned wholly upon the altar until consumed. This may mean that there is something about Jesus sacrifice and his blood that is between the Father and the Jesus that we are not privy to. Anything burned upon the altar is offered to God wholly, so the broken body and blood of Jesus is presented to the Father as sin offering for us. It is poured out heavenward, to the Father, before it is appropriated to us to cover our sins.

Leviticus Chapter 6:24-30

This Section speaks about the sin offering.

First it says that the sin offering is to be killed next to the altar where the burnt offering is burning. The burnt offering is a continuous sacrifice, but the sin offering is necessarily so. This reminds me that Jesus offering of Himself is for all time and it is because of His perfection in all things that our sins can be brought before him when we confess our sins and we can be assured that He will cleans us from all unrighteousness.

Second, the priest who offers the sin offering is to eat the meat of it. It is considered holy, so whoever touches it must be holy also. This must speak to the priest having been consecrated and sanctified before God. No one but a priest could offer the sacrifice. Jesus, a the Last Supper, spoke of the bread being His body, broken for the forgiveness of sins. And then He told His apostles to take and eat it. In this act Jesus is calling us to participate in His death and resurrection every time we observe this ordinance and in doing so, we admit to being united to Him and in communion with Him because He gave Himself up for us.

We, as believers have been made holy by the Holy Spirit. We are worthy to partake of Christ, just as the priests were holy and could partake of the sin offering.

Thirdly, the blood of the offerings was to be treated with respect, and if one's garment was sprinkled with this blood, the garment is to washed in the holy place only. This may indicate the baptism spoken of where our hearts are washed by the water of the Spirit and the word. But it seems here that the blood may be representative of sin and it is washed out of the garment. Also, if the blood of the sacrifice was collected in an earthen vessel, it was to be broken apart and not used again. If it was put in a brazen (metal) vessel, the metal vessel was to be ....

the blood of the sin offering is not to be consumed. If it is sprinkled upon the priests clothing, the clothig
