Leviticus 7:34 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

For the wave-breast, &c.— See 1 Corinthians 9:13-14. The equity of this law remains for ever: they who minister at the altar certainly ought to live by the altar. And they who honour God will have a regard about the becoming maintenance of his ministers, and share their morsel with them. We may also observe here, that the Lord's supper is a feast upon a sacrifice, or rather in commemoration of a sacrifice where blood has been shed; and a feast of mercies provided for ministers and people. Let us then together often keep the feast.

Leviticus 7:34

34 For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the children of Israel.
