33 He among the sons of Aaron, that offereth the blood of the peace offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for his part.
33 The son of Aaron who offers the blood and the fat of the fellowship offering shall have the right thigh as his share.
33 Whoever among the sons of Aaron offers the blood of the peace offerings and the fat shall have the right thigh for a portion.
33 Give a portion of the right thigh to the son of Aaron who offers the blood and fat of the Peace-Offering as his portion.
33 He among the sons of Aaron, who offers the blood of the peace offering and the fat, shall have the right thigh for his part.
33 The right thigh must always be given to the priest who offers the blood and the fat of the peace offering.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 7:33
Commentary on Leviticus 7:28-34
(Read Leviticus 7:28-34)
The priest who offered, was to have the breast and the right shoulder. When the sacrifice was killed, the offerer himself must present God's part of it; that he might signify his cheerfully giving it up to God. He was with his own hands to lift it up, in token of his regard to God as the God of heaven; and then to wave it to and fro, in token of his regard to God as the Lord of the whole earth. Be persuaded and encouraged to feed and feast upon Christ, our Peace-offering. This blessed Peace-offering is not for the priests only, for saints of the highest rank and greatest eminence, but for the common people also. Take heed of delay. Many think to repent and return to God when they are dying and dropping into hell; but they should eat the peace-offering, and eat it now. Stay not till the day of the Lord's patience be run out, for eating the third day will not be accepted, nor will catching at Christ when thou art gone to hell!
