Leviticus 7:8Meaning & Commentary from the Church Fathers

It is evident that our worship of God cannot be done freely, as highlighted in the repeated directive: ‘And when a priest offers anyone's burnt offering, the skin of the burnt offering which he offers belongs to the priest; and every offering of bread which is baked in the oven, and every offering which is cooked in a pot or in a pan, belongs to the priest who offers it; and every offering of bread mixed with oil and dry belongs to all the children of Aaron, both to the one and to the other’ (Lev. 7:8-10). This ordinance continues to be upheld in the churches, ensuring that all priests are treated equally in receiving the gifts of the unbloody sacrifice.
