 1 And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,

 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, *even* of the herd, and of the flock.

 3 If his offering *be* a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD.

 4 And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.

 5 And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that *is by* the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

 6 And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.

 7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:

 8 And the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that *is* on the fire which *is* upon the altar:

 9 But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water: and the priest shall burn all on the altar, *to be* a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

 10 ¶ And if his offering *be* of the flocks, *namely*, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall bring it a male without blemish.

 11 And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar.

 12 And he shall cut it into his pieces, with his head and his fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that *is* on the fire which *is* upon the altar:

 13 But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring *it* all, and burn *it* upon the altar: it *is* a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

 14 ¶ And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the LORD *be* of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.

 15 And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring off his head, and burn *it* on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar:*

 16 And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place of the ashes:*

 17 And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof, *but* shall not divide *it* asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that *is* upon the fire: it *is* a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
**AND.** This connects Leviticus very closely with Exodus, as Exodus is linked with Genesis. 

**the LORD.** Hebrew. *Jehovah.* Whose glory filled the tabernacle, [Exodus 40:35](/kjv/exodus/40/35) . No other book contains so many words of Jehovah: "Jehovah spake", thirty-six times (see note on [Leviticus 5:14](/kjv/leviticus/5/14) ); "I am Jehovah", twenty-one times; "I am Jehovah your God", twenty-one times; "I (Jehovah) am", three times; "I, Jehovah, do", twice. 

**called.** The last letter of this word (in Hebrew) is minuscular, i.e. smaller than the others. This callingis in contrast with the thunders from Sinai. 

**spake.** See note on [Leviticus 5:14](/kjv/leviticus/5/14) . 

**out of the tabernacle of the congregation.** Hebrew out of the tent of assembly: Hebrew. *'ohel.* See App-40 , not *mishkan,* therefore before 1491. There are four such calls: (1) from the burning bush ([Exodus 3:4](/kjv/exodus/3/4) ); (2) and (3) from Sinai ([Exodus 19:3](/kjv/exodus/19/3) , [Exodus 19:20](/kjv/exodus/19/20) ); and here.
