Leviticus 4:19

4:19 “‘Then the priest ¹  must take all its fat ²  and offer the fat ³  up in smoke on the altar.

Leviticus 7:3

7:3 Then the one making the offering ⁴  must present all its fat: the fatty tail, the fat covering the entrails,

[4:19]  ¹ tn Heb “Then he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity. Based on the parallel statement in 4:10 and 4:31, it is the priest who performs this action rather than the person who brought the offering.

[4:19]  ² tn Heb “take up all its fat from it”; NASB “shall remove all its fat from it.”

[4:19]  ³ tn Heb “it”; the referent (the fat) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Only the fat is meant here, since the “rest” of the bull is mentioned in v. 21.

[7:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “then he.” This pronoun refers to the offerer, who was responsible for slaughtering the animal. Contrast v. 2 above and v. 5 below.
