Leviticus 7:1-7

Context
The Guilt Offering

7:1 “‘This is the law of the guilt offering. It is most holy. 7:2 In the place where they slaughter the burnt offering they must slaughter the guilt offering, and the officiating priest 1  must splash 2  the blood against the altar’s sides. 7:3 Then the one making the offering 3  must present all its fat: the fatty tail, the fat covering the entrails, 7:4 the two kidneys and the fat on their sinews, and the protruding lobe on the liver (which he must remove along with the kidneys). 4  7:5 Then the priest must offer them up in smoke on the altar 5  as a gift to the Lord. It is a guilt offering. 7:6 Any male among the priests may eat it. It must be eaten in a holy place. It is most holy. 6  7:7 The law is the same for the sin offering and the guilt offering; 7  it belongs to the priest who makes atonement with it.
