| if his offering be of the flocks--Those who could not afford the expense of a bullock might offer a ram or a he-goat, and the same ceremonies were to be observed in the act of offering. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| Of the flocks - These directions are more brief than those for the bullock. The burnt-offering of the sheep must have been that with which the people were most familiar in the daily morning and evening service. Exo 29:38-42. Sheep were preferred for sacrifice when they could be obtained, except in some special sin-offerings in which goats were required Lev 4:23; Lev 9:3; Lev 16:5. The lamb "without blemish" is a well-known type of Christ. Heb 9:14; Pe1 1:19. |
| Commentary on the Old Testament, by Carl Friedrich Keil and Franz Delitzsch [1857-78] |
| With regard to the mode of sacrificing, the instructions already given for the oxen applied to the flock (i.e., to the sheep and goats) as well, so that the leading points are repeated here, together with a more precise description of the place for slaughtering, viz., "by the side of the altar towards the north," i.e., on the north side of the altar. This was the rule with all the slain-offerings; although it is only in connection with the burnt-offerings, sin-offerings, and trespass-offerings (Lev 4:24, Lev 4:29, Lev 4:33; Lev 6:18; Lev 7:2; Lev 14:13) that it is expressly mentioned, whilst the indefinite expression "at the door (in front) of the tabernacle" is applied to the peace-offerings in Lev 3:2, Lev 3:8, Lev 3:13, as it is to the trespass-offerings in Lev 4:4, from which the Rabbins have inferred, though hardly upon good ground, that the peace-offerings could be slaughtered in any part of the court. The northern side of the altar was appointed as the place of slaughtering, however, not from the idea that the Deity dwelt in the north (Ewald), for such an idea is altogether foreign to Mosaism, but, as Knobel supposes, probably because the table of shew-bread, with the continual meat-offering, stood on the north side in the holy place. Moreover, the eastern side of the altar in the court was the place for the refuse, or heap of ashes (Lev 1:16); the ascent to the altar was probably on the south side, as Josephus affirms that it was in the second temple (J. de bell. jud. v. 5, 6); and the western side, or the space between the altar and the entrance to the holy place, would unquestionably have been the most unsuitable of all for the slaughtering. In Lev 1:12 וגו ואת־ראשׁו is to be connected per zeugma with לנתחיו htiw amguez , "let him cut it up according to its parts, and (sever) its head and its fat." |

19 But [235] with the precious [5093] blood [129] of Christ [5547], as [5613] of a lamb [286] without blemish [299] and [2532] without spot [784]:
14 How much [4214] more [3123] shall [2511] the blood [129] of Christ [5547], who [3739] through [1223] the eternal [166] Spirit [4151] offered [4374] himself [1438] without spot [299] to God [2316], purge [2511] your [5216] conscience [4893] from [575] dead [3498] works [2041] to [1519] serve [3000] the living [2198] God [2316]?
5 And he shall take [03947] of the congregation [05712] of the children [01121] of Israel [03478] two [08147] kids [08163] of the goats [05795] for a sin offering [02403], and one [0259] ram [0352] for a burnt offering [05930].
3 And unto the children [01121] of Israel [03478] thou shalt speak [01696], saying [0559], Take [03947] ye a kid [08163] of the goats [05795] for a sin offering [02403]; and a calf [05695] and a lamb [03532], both of the first [01121] year [08141], without blemish [08549], for a burnt offering [05930];
23 Or if his sin [02403], wherein he hath sinned [02398], come to his knowledge [03045]; he shall bring [0935] his offering [07133], a kid [08163] of the goats [05795], a male [02145] without blemish [08549]:
38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer [06213] upon the altar [04196]; two [08147] lambs [03532] of the first [01121] year [08141] day [03117] by day [03117] continually [08548].
39 The one [0259] lamb [03532] thou shalt offer [06213] in the morning [01242]; and the other [08145] lamb [03532] thou shalt offer [06213] at even [06153]:
40 And with the one [0259] lamb [03532] a tenth [06241] deal of flour [05560] mingled [01101] with the fourth part [07253] of an hin [01969] of beaten [03795] oil [08081]; and the fourth part [07243] of an hin [01969] of wine [03196] for a drink offering [05262].
41 And the other [08145] lamb [03532] thou shalt offer [06213] at even [06153], and shalt do [06213] thereto according to the meat offering [04503] of the morning [01242], and according to the drink offering [05262] thereof, for a sweet [05207] savour [07381], an offering made by fire [0801] unto the LORD [03068].
42 This shall be a continual [08548] burnt offering [05930] throughout your generations [01755] at the door [06607] of the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150] before [06440] the LORD [03068]: where I will meet [03259] you, to speak [01696] there unto thee.
12 And he shall cut [05408] it into his pieces [05409], with his head [07218] and his fat [06309]: and the priest [03548] shall lay them in order [06186] on the wood [06086] that is on the fire [0784] which is upon the altar [04196]:
16 And he shall pluck away [05493] his crop [04760] with his feathers [05133], and cast [07993] it beside [0681] the altar [04196] on the east part [06924], by the place [04725] of the ashes [01880]:
4 And he shall bring [0935] the bullock [06499] unto the door [06607] of the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150] before [06440] the LORD [03068]; and shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the bullock's [06499] head [07218], and kill [07819] the bullock [06499] before [06440] the LORD [03068].
13 And he shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of it, and kill [07819] it before [06440] the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150]: and the sons [01121] of Aaron [0175] shall sprinkle [02236] the blood [01818] thereof upon the altar [04196] round about [05439].
8 And he shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of his offering [07133], and kill [07819] it before [06440] the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150]: and Aaron's [0175] sons [01121] shall sprinkle [02236] the blood [01818] thereof round about [05439] upon the altar [04196].
2 And he shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of his offering [07133], and kill [07819] it at the door [06607] of the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150]: and Aaron's [0175] sons [01121] the priests [03548] shall sprinkle [02236] the blood [01818] upon the altar [04196] round about [05439].
13 And he shall slay [07819] the lamb [03532] in the place [04725] where he shall kill [07819] the sin offering [02403] and the burnt offering [05930], in the holy [06944] place [04725]: for as the sin offering [02403] is the priest's [03548], so is the trespass offering [0817]: it is most [06944] holy [06944]:
2 In the place [04725] where they kill [07819] the burnt offering [05930] shall they kill [07819] the trespass offering [0817]: and the blood [01818] thereof shall he sprinkle [02236] round about [05439] upon the altar [04196].
18 All the males [02145] among the children [01121] of Aaron [0175] shall eat [0398] of it. It shall be a statute [02706] for ever [05769] in your generations [01755] concerning the offerings [0801] of the LORD [03068] made by fire [0801]: every one that toucheth [05060] them shall be holy [06942].
33 And he shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of the sin offering [02403], and slay [07819] it for a sin offering [02403] in the place [04725] where they kill [07819] the burnt offering [05930].
29 And he shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of the sin offering [02403], and slay [07819] the sin offering [02403] in the place [04725] of the burnt offering [05930].
24 And he shall lay [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of the goat [08163], and kill [07819] it in the place [04725] where they kill [07819] the burnt offering [05930] before [06440] the LORD [03068]: it is a sin offering [02403].
2 Speak [01696] unto the children [01121] of Israel [03478], and say [0559] unto them, If any man [0120] of you bring [07126] an offering [07133] unto the LORD [03068], ye shall bring [07126] your offering [07133] of the cattle [0929], even of the herd [01241], and of the flock [06629].
