The Law of the Trespass Offering
1 ‘Likewise athis is the law of the trespass offering (it is most holy):
2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering they shall kill the trespass offering. And its blood he shall sprinkle all around on the altar.
3 And he shall offer from it all its fat. The fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails,
4 the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys, he shall remove;
5 and the priest shall burn them on the altar as an offering made by fire to the Lord. It is a trespass offering.
6 aEvery male among the priests may eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place. bIt is most holy.
7 aThe trespass offering is like the sin offering; there is one law for them both: the priest who makes atonement with it shall have it.
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.
9 Also aevery grain offering that is baked in the oven and all that is prepared in the covered pan, or1 in a pan, shall be the priest’s who offers it.
