Compare all

4 ^aThen he shall put his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it will be ^baccepted on his behalf ^cto make atonement for him.

5 He shall kill the ^abull before the Lord; ^band the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall bring the blood ^cand sprinkle the blood all around on the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

6 And he shall ^askin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces.

7 The sons of Aaron the priest shall put ^afire on the altar, and ^blay the wood in order on the fire.

8 Then the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire upon the altar;

9 but he shall wash its entrails and its legs with water. And the priest shall burn all on the altar as a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a ^asweet aroma to the Lord.

10 ‘If his offering is of the flocks—of the sheep or of the goats—as a burnt sacrifice, he shall bring a male ^awithout blemish.

11 ^aHe shall kill it on the north side of the altar before the Lord; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar.

Leviticus 1:6

And he shall flay - The sacrificer, or his assistant, had to skin and cut up the victim. The hide was the gratuity of the officiating priest. Leviticus 7:8.

His pieces - That is, its proper pieces, the parts into which it was usual for a sacrificed animal to be divided.
