Leviticus Chapter 6 Bible Study
The Lord gave the following regulations to Moses.
- Refusing to return, stealing or cheating, lying and swearing about another Israelite’s left: you must repay your owner in full, with additional 20%. You shall bring a nondefective male sheep or goat and the priest shall offer the sacrifice for your sin, and you will be forgiven.
- Burnt Offerings: it is to be left on the altar all night and kept burning. The priest, wearing his linen robe and shorts, shall take away the grease to put them at the side of the altar. Then change his clothes and take the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. The fire on the altar must be kept burning and never go out. Every morning the priest shall put firewood on it, arrange the burnt offering, and burn the fellowship offering’s fat.
- Grain Offerings: An Aaronite priest shall present these to the Lord in the front of the altar. He shall take a handful of fine flour and oil with the incense on it and burn it all on a token that has been offered. The odor of this offering is pleasing to the Lord. The priests shall eat the rest of the grain offering. The offering shall be made into bread baked without yeast and eaten in a holy place, the Lord’s courtyard in the Tent of His presence. The Lord has given it to the priests as part of their food offerings. It is very holy. Any of Aaron’s male descendants for all time to come shall eat it as their continuing share of the food offered to the Lord. Anyone else who touches a food offering will be harmed by the power of holiness.
- Ordination of an Aaronite Priest: On the day of ordination, he shall present two pounds of flour, half of each in the morning and evening. It is to be mixed with oil and cooked on a griddle, and then crumbled and presented as a grain offering to the Lord. This offering will be made by every descendant for all time to come of Aaron, serving as High Priest and burned on it as the Lord’s sacrifice. No part of a grain offering shall be eaten; all of it will be burned.
- Sin Offerings: The animal for any sin offering must be killed on the north side of the altar. The priest who gives a sacrifice to the animal shall eat in the courtyard of the Tent of the Lord’s presence. Anyone or anything that touches the animal’s flesh will be harmed by the power of holiness. If any kind of articled clothing is dirty with the blood of an animal, it shall be washed in the holy place. Any kind of clay pot in which any meat is boiled must be broken; if any metal pot is used, it shall be scrubbed and rinsed with water. Any priestly families’ male shall eat the holy offering. But if any of the blood’s sent into the Tent and used to take the sin away, the animal shall be burned, not eaten.
