• Lev 7:1-9 : 1 Likewise, this is the law of the trespass offering: it is most holy. 2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, they shall kill the trespass offering, and he shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar. 3 And he shall offer from it all the fat, the tail, and the fat that covers the entrails, 4 And the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them by the loins, and the lobe above the liver, with the kidneys, he shall remove it: 5 And the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made by fire to the LORD: it is a trespass offering. 6 Every male among the priests shall eat it: it shall be eaten in a holy place: it is most holy. 7 As the sin offering is, so is the trespass offering: there is one law for them: the priest who makes atonement with it shall have it. 8 And the priest who offers any man's burnt offering, even the priest, shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has offered. 9 And all the grain offering baked in the oven, and all that is prepared in the frying pan and in the pan, shall be the priest's who offers it. 10 And every grain offering, mixed with oil, and dry, shall be for all the sons of Aaron, one as much as another. 11 And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he shall offer to the LORD. 12 If he offers it for thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, fried. 13 Besides the cakes, he shall offer leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offerings. 14 And from it he shall offer one out of the whole offering as a wave offering to the LORD, and it shall be the priest's who sprinkles the blood of the peace offerings. 15 And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until morning. 16 But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day he offers his sacrifice: and on the next day, the remainder of it shall also be eaten: 17 But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire. 18 And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, nor shall it be counted to him who offers it: it shall be an abomination, and the person who eats of it shall bear his iniquity. 19 And the flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire: and for the other flesh, all who are clean shall eat it. 20 But the soul that eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, that belong to the LORD, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from his people. 21 Moreover, the soul who touches any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean animal, or any abominable unclean thing, and eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which belong to the LORD, that soul shall be cut off from his people. 22 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 23 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, You shall not eat any fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat. 24 And the fat of an animal that dies of itself, and the fat of an animal that is torn by beasts, may be used for any other purpose: but you shall not eat of it. 25 For whoever eats the fat of the animal of which men offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, even the soul who eats it shall be cut off from his people. 26 Moreover, you shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or animal, in any of your dwellings. 27 Whatever soul it is that eats any blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people. 28 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 29 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, He who offers the sacrifice of his peace offerings to the LORD shall bring his offering to the LORD from the sacrifice of his peace offerings. 30 His own hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire; the fat with the breast, he shall bring, that the breast may be waved as a wave offering before the LORD. 31 And the priest shall burn the fat on the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'. 32 And you shall give the right shoulder to the priest as a heave offering from the sacrifices of your peace offerings. 33 He among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace offerings and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for his portion. 34 For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons by a statute forever from among the children of Israel. 35 This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of his sons, out of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, on the day when he presented them to minister to the LORD in the priest's office; 36 Which the LORD commanded to be given them from the children of Israel, on the day that he anointed them, by a statute forever throughout their generations. 37 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the grain offering, and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the consecrations, and of the sacrifice of the peace offerings; 38 Which the LORD commanded Moses on Mount Sinai, on the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai.
• 1 Sam 2:13-15 : 13 And this was the priests' custom with the people, that, when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest's servant would come while the meat was boiling, with a three-pronged fork in his hand; 14 And he would thrust it into the pan, or kettle, or cauldron, or pot; all that the fork brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there. 15 Also, before they burned the fat, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who sacrificed, Give meat to roast for the priest, for he will not take boiled meat from you, but raw.
