* »‘These are the instructions for the guilt offering . It is very holy . * »‘It should be slaughtered in the same place where the burnt offering is slaughtered . A priest will throw the blood against all sides of the altar . * »‘He will offer all the fat , the fat from the tail , the fat covering the internal organs . * »‘That includes the two kidneys with the fat on them . He will also remove the lobe of the liver along with the kidneys . * The priest will burn them on the altar . It is a guilt offering by fire to Jehovah . * »‘Every male among the priests may eat it . It will be eaten in a holy place . It is very holy . * »‘The same instructions apply to the offering for sin and the guilt offering . Both offerings belong to the priest to pay compensation for wrongdoing and make peace with Jehovah . * »‘The skin of the burnt offering belongs to the priest who sacrifices it . * »‘Every grain offering , whether baked in an oven or prepared in a skillet or a frying pan , belongs to the priest who offers it . * »‘Every grain offering , whether mixed with olive oil or dry , will be shared equally by all of Aaron 's sons . * »‘These are the instructions for the fellowship offering that you must bring to Jehovah . * »‘If you offer it as a thank offering , you must also bring rings of unleavened bread mixed with oil , wafers of unleavened bread brushed with oil , and loaves made from flour mixed well with oil . * »‘In addition to these rings of bread , you must bring leavened bread along with your fellowship offering of thanksgiving . * »‘He will present one of every offering as a contribution to Jehovah . It will belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings . * »‘The flesh of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving peace offerings will be eaten on the day of his offering . He should not leave any of it over until morning . * »‘If the sacrifice of his offering is a votive or a freewill offering , it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his sacrifice as well as on the next day . * »‘Anything left over from the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned . * »‘If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten on the third day , he who offers it will not be accepted . It will not be considered for his benefit . It will be an offensive thing , and the person who eats of it will bear his own iniquity . * »‘The flesh that touches anything unclean shall not be eaten . It should be burned with fire . As for other flesh , anyone who is clean may eat such flesh . * »‘The person who eats the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings that belong to Jehovah , in his uncleanness , that person will be cut off from his people . * »‘When someone touches anything unclean , whether human uncleanness , or an unclean animal , or any unclean detestable thing , and eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings which belong to Jehovah , that person shall be cut off from his people .’« * Jehovah continued to speak to Moses : * »Tell the Israelites : ‘Never eat any fat from bulls , sheep , or goats . * »‘The fat from an animal that dies naturally or is killed by wild animals you may use for any other purpose . However , you must not eat it . * »‘Those who eat the fat from an animal they sacrificed by fire to Jehovah must be excluded from the people . * »‘Never eat the blood of any bird or animal no matter where you live . * »‘Those who eat any blood must be excluded from the people .’« * Jehovah spoke to Moses : * »Tell the Israelites : ‘Anyone who offers Jehovah a fellowship offering must bring a part of that sacrifice as a gift to Jehovah . * »‘Bring the sacrifices by fire made to Jehovah . Bring the fat with the breast . Take the breast and present it to Jehovah . * »‘The priest will burn the fat on the altar . However , the breast will belong to Aaron and his sons . * »‘You will also give the priest the right thigh as a contribution . * »‘When any of Aaron 's sons offer the blood and fat of the fellowship offering , the right thigh will belong to him as his share . * »‘I have taken the breast and thigh that was presented to me from the contribution offering from the Israelites . I have given them to the priest Aaron and his sons . This is a long lasting law for generations to come . * »‘This is the share for Aaron and his sons from the sacrifices by fire made to Jehovah . It was given to them on the day Moses ordained them to serve Jehovah as priests .’« * Jehovah commanded the Israelites to give it to them on the day he anointed them . This is a long lasting law for generations to come . * These are the instructions for the burnt offering , the grain offering , the offering for sin , the guilt offering , the ordination offering , and the fellowship offering . * On Mount Sinai Jehovah gave Moses commands about these offerings . At the same time he commanded the Israelites to bring their offerings to him in the Sinai Desert .
