And the flesh that toucheth any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and as for the flesh, all that be clean shall eat thereof.
The flesh that toucheth any unclean thing shall not be eaten. Flesh offered in sacrifice, being holy (Exodus 29:34), was defiled by contact with anything unclean, and therefore, being unfit for use, was to be burned with fire.
And as for the flesh all that be clean shall eat thereof - i:e., of the sacrificial feast. This statement was an explanatory addendum, seasonably made after the peremptory injunction to burn the sacrificial flesh, which had been in any way polluted or defiled; and the import of it was, that no one who was ceremonially clean was prevented from accepting an invitation to partake of the meal.
