Contextual Overview

10 "If the animal you present as a burnt offering is from the flock, it may be either a sheep or a goat, but it must be a male with no defects. 11 Slaughter the animal on the north side of the altar in the Lord 's presence, and Aaron's sons, the priests, will splatter its blood against all sides of the altar. 12 Then cut the animal in pieces, and the priests will arrange the pieces of the offering, including the head and fat, on the wood burning on the altar. 13 But the internal organs and the legs must first be washed with water. Then the priest will burn the entire sacrifice on the altar as a burnt offering. It is a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord . 14 "If you present a bird as a burnt offering to the Lord , choose either a turtledove or a young pigeon. 15 The priest will take the bird to the altar, wring off its head, and burn it on the altar. But first he must drain its blood against the side of the altar. 16 The priest must also remove the crop and the feathers and throw them in the ashes on the east side of the altar. 17 Then, grasping the bird by its wings, the priest will tear the bird open, but without tearing it apart. Then he will burn it as a burnt offering on the wood burning on the altar. It is a special gift, a pleasing aroma to the Lord .

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

of the flocks: Leviticus 1:2, Genesis 4:4, Genesis 8:20, Isaiah 53:6, Isaiah 53:7, John 1:29

a burnt sacrifice: Olah, a burnt offering, from âlah, to ascend, because this offering ascended, as it were, to God in flame and smoke, being wholly consumed; for which reason its is called in the Septuagint, ןכןךבץפשלב, a whole burnt offering. This was the most important of all the sacrifices; and no part of it was eaten either by the priest or the offerer, but the whole was offered to God. It has been sufficiently shown by learned men, that almost every nation of the earth, in every age, had their burnt offerings, from the persuasion that there was no other way to appease the incensed gods; and they even offered human sacrifices, because they imagined that life was necessary to redeem life, and that the gods would be satisfied with nothing less.

a male: Leviticus 1:3, Leviticus 4:23, Leviticus 22:19, Malachi 1:14

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And if his offering be of the flocks,.... As it might be:

[namely], of the sheep, or of the goats for a burnt sacrifice; which were both typical of Christ, :-

he shall bring it a male without blemish; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Of the flocks - These directions are more brief than those for the bullock. The burnt-offering of the sheep must have been that with which the people were most familiar in the daily morning and evening service. Exodus 29:38-42. Sheep were preferred for sacrifice when they could be obtained, except in some special sin-offerings in which goats were required Leviticus 4:23; Leviticus 9:3; Leviticus 16:5. The lamb “without blemish” is a well-known type of Christ. Heb 9:14; 1 Peter 1:19.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Leviticus 1:10. His offering be of the flocksLeviticus 1:2.
