Lev. 3:1–17 The peace offering (see also 7:11–36) expresses peace between an offerer and the Lord. As with the burnt offering, there are various motives for a peace offering, from petition to praise.
Lev. 3:1–5 For the burnt offering, the entire animal was to be burned up; for the peace offering, only the fatty parts are to be burned. The fat in ancient Israel represented the very best part of the animal (compare the “fat of the wheat,” Num. 18:12).
Lev. 3:6–17 Almost the same instructions are given here for the offering of a sheep or a goat.
Lev. 3:16–17 The fat, being the very best part of the animal, was to be given to the Lord. The blood was reserved for atoning for the life of the Israelites, therefore it too must not be consumed (see notes on 17:11; 17:12).
