Introduction
In this chapter we have the law concerning the peace-offerings, whether they were, I. Of the heard, a bullock or a heifer (Lev 3:1-5). Or, II. Of the flock, either a lamb (Lev 3:6-11) or a goat (Lev 3:12-17). The ordinances concerning each of these are much the same, yet they are repeated, to show the care we ought to take that all our services be done according to the appointment and the pleasure God takes in the services that are so performed. It is likewise to intimate what need we have of precept upon precept, and line upon line.
INTRODUCTION TO LEVITICUS 3
This chapter contains the law of the peace offerings, and gives an account what they consisted of, and of the various rites and ceremonies used at them, as of the bullock and the rites appertaining to that, Lev 3:1 and of the lamb, and of the rites peculiar to it, Lev 3:6 and of the goat, and of the rites belonging to it, Lev 3:12 and the chapter is concluded with a law forbidding the eating of fat and blood throughout their dwellings for ever, Lev 3:17.
The law of the peace-offering in general, Lev 3:1-5. That of the peace-offering taken from the flock, Lev 3:6-11; and the same when the offering is a goat, Lev 3:12-17.
THE PEACE OFFERING OF THE HERD. (Lev. 3:1-17)
if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering--"Peace" being used in Scripture to denote prosperity and happiness generally, a peace offering was a voluntary tribute of gratitude for health or other benefits. In this view it was eucharistic, being a token of thanksgiving for benefits already received, or it was sometimes votive, presented in prayer for benefits wished for in the future.
of the herd--This kind of offering being of a festive character, either male or female, if without blemish, might be used, as both of them were equally good for food, and, if the circumstances of the offerer allowed it, it might be a calf.
