Leviticus 7:20

18 And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering is eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, nor shall it be ^aimputed to him; it shall be an ^babomination to him who offers it, and the person who eats of it shall bear¹ guilt.

19 ‘The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. And as for the clean flesh, all who are¹ clean may eat of it.

20 But the person who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offering that belongs to the ^aLord, ^bwhile he is unclean, that person ^cshall be cut off from his people.

21 Moreover the person who touches any unclean thing, such as ^ahuman uncleanness, an ^bunclean animal, or any ^cabominable unclean thing, and who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of the peace offering that belongs to the Lord, that person ^dshall be cut off from his people.’ ”

Fat and Blood May Not Be Eaten

22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

23 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ^a‘You shall not eat any fat, of ox or sheep or goat.

Leviticus 7:21 >>

That eateth - Knowingly; for if it were done ignorantly, a sacrifice was accepted for it. Not being cleansed from his uncleanness according to the appointment, Leviticus 11:24, etc. This verse speaks of uncleanness from an internal cause, as by an issue, etc. for what was from an external cause is spoken of in the next verse.
