19 He shall remove all the fat from it and burn it on the altar,
19 And he shall take all his fat from him, and burn it upon the altar.
19 And all its fat he shall take from it and burn on the altar.
19 He will remove all the fat and burn it on the Altar.
19 He shall take all the fat from it and burn it on the altar.
19 Then the priest must remove all the animal's fat and burn it on the altar,
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 4:19
Commentary on Leviticus 4:13-21
(Read Leviticus 4:13-21)
If the leaders of the people, through mistake, caused them to err, an offering must be brought, that wrath might not come upon the whole congregation. When sacrifices were offered, the persons, on whose behalf they were devoted, were to lay their hands on the heads of the victims, and to confess their sins. The elders were to do so, when the sacrifices were offered for the whole congregation. The load of sin was supposed then to be borne by the guiltless animal. When the offering is completed, it is said, atonement is made, and the sin shall be forgiven. The saving of churches and kingdoms from ruin, is owing to the satisfaction and mediation of Christ.
