Lev. 22:1–3 The heavy responsibility demanded of the priests is seen in the phrase cut off from my presence, which is more severe than the ordinary formula “cut off from his people” (19:8; 20:5) which describes the punishment for laymen. The priest is exiled from the service in the tabernacle (that is, in God’s presence).

Lev. 22:4–9 For the background of these rules, see 11:1–47; 13:1–59; 15:1–33;; 17:15. Contracting uncleanness is certain, but when purification has been made, one can eat the holy offering. If purification is not made and the offering is eaten, the offender gives up his life.

Lev. 22:10–16 Priests and their families survived on food from donations to the tabernacle. The priests are to guard the holy food so that those not authorized to do so may not eat of it (vv. 15–16).

Lev. 22:17–25 Animals with defects are considered unholy and incomplete, and are not to be offered to the Holy One.

Lev. 22:29–30 A thanksgiving sacrifice was a type of peace offering (compare 7:15). on the same day (see also 7:15). This stricter rule could suggest that this offering was especially sacred or important.
