Leviticus 3:5 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Upon the burnt sacrifice — Either, Upon the remainders of it, which were yet burning; or rather, After it; for the daily burnt — offering was first to be offered, both as more eminently respecting God's honour; and as the most solemn and stated sacrifice, which should take place of all occasional oblations, and as a sacrifice of an higher nature, being for atonement, without which no peace could be obtained, nor peace offering offered with acceptance.

Leviticus 3:5

5 And Aaron's sons shall burn it on the altar upon the burnt sacrifice, which is upon the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
