Leviticus 7:15-17 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Observe how speedily the sacrifice was to be eaten. Did not this represent the earnestness with which CHRIST is to be received? Hebrews 3:13-14. And observe that what remained until the 3rd day of the flesh of the sacrifice was to be burnt. Did not this intimate that the precious body of JESUS should not see corruption, but be offered up in the glories of his resurrection? Psalms 16:10.

Leviticus 7:15-17

15 And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.

16 But if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be eaten:

17 But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.
