<< Leviticus 1:2 Leviticus 1:4 >>
Leviticus 1:3
Burnt-sacrifice - The most important of all the sacrifices offered to God; called by the Septuagint ̔ , because it was wholly consumed, which was not the case in any other offering. See on Leviticus 7 (note).
His own voluntary will - lirtsono , to gain himself acceptance before the Lord: in this way all the versions appear to have understood the original words, and the connection in which they stand obviously requires this meaning.
