The Burnt Offering

The Lord called to Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting. He said,

The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to the Lord.

The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings presented to the Lord.

If you offer a lamb, you are to present it before the Lord,

The Sin Offering

The Lord said to Moses,

“‘If someone brings a lamb as their sin offering, they are to bring a female without defect.

They shall remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from the lamb of the fellowship offering, and the priest shall burn it on the altar on top of the food offerings presented to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.

“‘If anyone becomes aware that they are guilty—if they unwittingly touch anything ceremonially unclean (whether the carcass of an unclean animal, wild or domestic, or of any unclean creature that moves along the ground) and they are unaware that they have become unclean, but then they come to realize their guilt;

As a penalty for the sin they have committed, they must bring to the Lord a female lamb or goat from the flock as a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for them for their sin.

“‘Anyone who cannot afford a lamb is to bring two doves or two young pigeons to the Lord as a penalty for their sin—one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering.

The Guilt Offering

The Lord said to Moses:

The Lord said to Moses:

“If anyone sins and is unfaithful to the Lord by deceiving a neighbor about something entrusted to them or left in their care or about something stolen, or if they cheat their neighbor,

when they sin in any of these ways and realize their guilt, they must return what they have stolen or taken by extortion, or what was entrusted to them, or the lost property they found,

The Burnt Offering

The Lord said to Moses:

“Give Aaron and his sons this command: ‘These are the regulations for the burnt offering: The burnt offering is to remain on the altar hearth throughout the night, till morning, and the fire must be kept burning on the altar.

The fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must not go out. Every morning the priest is to add firewood and arrange the burnt offering on the fire and burn the fat of the fellowship offerings on it.

It must not be baked with yeast; I have given it as their share of the food offerings presented to me. Like the sin offering and the guilt offering, it is most holy.

The Lord also said to Moses,

“This is the offering Aaron and his sons are to bring to the Lord on the day he is anointed: a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening.

The Sin Offering

The Lord said to Moses,

“Say to Aaron and his sons: ‘These are the regulations for the sin offering: The sin offering is to be slaughtered before the Lord in the place the burnt offering is slaughtered; it is most holy.

Any male in a priest’s family may eat it; it is most holy.

The Guilt Offering

“‘These are the regulations for the guilt offering, which is most holy:

Any male in a priest’s family may eat it, but it must be eaten in the sanctuary area; it is most holy.
