8 The priest who offers a burnt offering for anyone may keep its hide for himself.
8 And the priest that offereth any man's burnt offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered.
8 And the priest who offers any man's burnt offering shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering that he has offered.
8 The priest who presents a Whole-Burnt-Offering for someone gets the hide for himself.
8 And the priest who offers anyone's burnt offering, that priest shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered.
8 In the case of the burnt offering, the priest may keep the hide of the sacrificed animal.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Leviticus 7:8
Commentary on Leviticus 7:1-10
(Read Leviticus 7:1-10)
In the sin-offering and the trespass-offering, the sacrifice was divided between the altar and the priest; the offerer had no share, as he had in the peace-offerings. The former expressed repentance and sorrow for sin, therefore it was more proper to fast than feast; the peace-offerings denoted communion with a reconciled God in Christ, the joy and gratitude of a pardoned sinner, and the privileges of a true believer.
