Leviticus 7:11–21

Additional Laws for Fellowship Offerings

¹¹“ ‘And this is the regulation of the fellowship offerings that he must present to Yahweh: ¹²If he presents it for thanksgiving, in addition to the thanksgiving sacrifice he shall present ring-shaped unleavened bread mixed with oil and unleavened bread wafers smeared with oil and well-mixed ring-shaped bread cakes of finely milled flour mixed with oil. ¹³In addition to ring-shaped cakes of bread with yeast, he must present his grain^r offering together with^s his sacrifice of thanksgiving peace offerings. ¹⁴And he shall present one of each kind of grain^t offering as a contribution for Yahweh; it belongs to^u the priest who sprinkles the fellowship offerings’ blood. ¹⁵And the meat of the sacrifice of his thanksgiving fellowship offerings must be eaten on the day of his offering; he must not leave it until morning.

¹⁶“ ‘But^v if his sacrifice is for a vow or as a freewill offering, it must be eaten on the day of his presenting his sacrifice, and on the next day the remainder^w from it may be eaten, ¹⁷but^x the remainder from the sacrifice’s meat must be burned up in the fire on the third day. ¹⁸And if indeed some of the meat of his fellowship offerings’ sacrifice is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted; it will not be considered of benefit for the one who presented it—it shall be unclean meat, and the person^y who eats it shall bear his guilt. ¹⁹And the meat that touches anything unclean must not be eaten; it must be burned with fire, and as for the clean^z meat, anyone who is clean may eat the meat. ²⁰And the person^a who eats meat from the fellowship offerings’ sacrifice, which is for Yahweh, and whose uncleanness is upon him—that person^b shall be cut off from his people. ²¹And when a person^c touches anything unclean, whether human uncleanness or an unclean animal or any unclean detestable thing, and he eats from the meat of the fellowship offerings’ sacrifice, which is for Yahweh, then^d that person^e shall be cut off from his people.’ ”
