References for Lev 6:2 —  1   2 

Lev. 6:1–7 When a person sins against his neighbor, he should make it right both with the neighbor and with the Lord (see also Matt. 5:23–26).

Lev. 6:8–7:38 Handling of the Offerings. This section describes the proper handling, eating, and disposal of the various sacrifices and offerings described in 1:1–6:7. The sacrifices and offerings are either “holy” or “most holy” and must be treated with respect. Otherwise, the offering would not count and the offender would be punished (see 7:18, 20–21).

Lev. 6:8–13 burnt offering. See also 1:1–17. fire on the altar shall be kept burning (6:9, 12–13). This would encourage the priests to be faithful in their duties so that worship could continue without interruption.

Lev. 6:14–23 The initial description of the grain offering (2:1–16) describes what the worshiper does while this section focuses on what the priests do with grain offerings.

Lev. 6:14–18 The grain offering is most holy and must therefore be eaten by holy people (the sons of Aaron) in a holy place (the court of the tent of meeting).

Lev. 6:19–23 Since it appears that this grain offering was offered on behalf of the priests, it is not surprising that the high priest (the priest . . . who is anointed) would offer it, since he would represent the priests as a whole.

Lev. 6:24–30 The initial description of the sin offering (4:1–5:13) indicated that meat of the offering was to be burned up when its blood had been taken into the Holy Place (4:3–21; compare 6:30). These verses explain that the remaining meat of other sin offerings (4:22–35) is to be eaten by holy people (priests) in a holy place (6:26, 29). blood . . . on a garment . . . bronze vessel. The instructions of vv. 27–28 ensure that holy blood does not leave the holy place.
