3 From the fellowship offering you are to bring a food offering to the Lord: the internal organs and all the fat that is connected to them,
3 And from the sacrifice of the peace offering, as a food offering to the Lord, he shall offer the fat covering the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails,
3 As a Fire-Gift to God from the Peace-Offering, present all the fat that covers or is connected to the entrails,
3 Then he shall offer from the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire to the Lord. The fat that covers the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails,
3 The priest must present part of this peace offering as a special gift to the Lord . This includes all the fat around the internal organs,
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 3:3
Commentary on Leviticus 3:1-5
(Read Leviticus 3:1-5)
The peace-offerings had regard to God as the giver of all good things. These were divided between the altar, the priest, and the owner. They were called peace-offering, because in them God and his people did, as it were, feast together, in token of friendship. The peace-offerings were offered by way of supplication. If a man were in pursuit of any mercy, he would add a peace-offering to his prayer for it. Christ is our Peace, our Peace-offering; for through him alone it is that we can obtain an answer of peace to our prayers. Or, the peace-offering was offered by way of thanksgiving for some mercy received. We must offer to God the sacrifice of praise continually, by Christ our Peace; and then this shall please the Lord better than an ox or bullock.
