Their flesh became the priests' share. However, the flesh of sin offerings whose blood was brought into the tabernacle to make atonement in the sanctuary, was not to be eaten but was to be burned. These included the sin offerings for the high priest (Leviticus 4:3; Leviticus 4:12), for the whole congregation (Leviticus 4:13–21), and the sin offering of the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:27).
To reconcile withal. — Better, to make atonement for, as the Authorized Version renders it in Leviticus 1:4, and generally wherever it occurs.
