Summary
God calls Moses to deliver His instructions to the Israelites concerning burnt offerings. The chapter specifies that the offering must be a male animal without blemish, and it must be offered at the tabernacle’s entrance. For cattle, the offering is slaughtered, blood sprinkled, and the animal is cut, with the head and fat placed on the fire while the inner parts are washed. Sheep, goats, and fowl follow similar procedures, with specific mention of turtledoves or young pigeons. Each burnt offering is consumed on the fire, described as a sweet savor to the LORD, underscoring its role in atonement and worship.
