Lev 7:17

Lev 7:17but what is left over from the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burned with fire.

Lev 7:18

Lev 7:18‘So if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings should ever be eaten on the third day, he who offers it will not be accepted, and it will not be reckoned to his benefit. It shall be an offensive thing, and the person who eats of it will bear his own iniquity.

Lev 7:19

Lev 7:23

Lev 7:24

Lev 7:24‘Also the fat of an animal which dies and the fat of an animal torn by beasts may be put to any other use, but you must certainly not eat it.

Lev 7:25

Lev 7:25‘For whoever eats the fat of the animal from which [fn]an offering by fire is offered to the LORD, even the person who eats shall be cut off from his people.
