The entrails, or inner parts, symbolize the innermost being of a person, suggesting a complete offering to God. This act of taking the fat signifies giving God the best and most valuable parts, reflecting the principle of offering our best to God in worship and service.and the lobe of the liver The liver was seen as a vital organ, often associated with emotions and decision-making in ancient cultures. The specific mention of the liver's lobe highlights the thoroughness required in the sacrificial process. This detail underscores the importance of precision and obedience in following God's commands, reflecting the need for careful adherence to His instructions.and both kidneys with the fat on them In ancient Near Eastern thought, kidneys were considered the seat of emotion and conscience. Offering the kidneys with their fat signifies a surrender of one's innermost thoughts and feelings to God. This act can be seen as a type of Christ, who offered Himself wholly and without reservation, fulfilling the law's requirements perfectly.and burn them on the altar Burning the fat and organs on the altar represents the complete consumption of the offering by fire, symbolizing purification and the ascent of the offering to God. The altar serves as a place of atonement and reconciliation, pointing to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who offered Himself as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Usually, parts only of the victims were consumed by fire upon the altar; the greater portion was either eaten by the priests and the worshippers, or burnt elsewhere than on the altar. Among the parts regarded as most fitting to be consumed on the altar, the fat always held a high place. This is to be accounted for either by its being considered a delicacy, or by the readiness with which it caught fire and kindled into a clear bright blaze.The caul that is above the liver--i.e., the membrane which covers the upper portion of the liver, sometimes called "the little omentum."<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/exodus/29.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 13. - Thou shalt take all the fat, etc. Among all nations who have offered sacrifices, it has been very usual to select certain parts of the victim only for burning upon the altar, and to dispose otherwise of the remainder. The Greeks commonly burnt on the altar the thighs and the fat only. The Romans burnt certain parts of the intestines only, and called them prosecta, prosiciae, or ablegmina. In Egypt, according to Herodotus, the greater part of the body was burnt; but the head, the neck, the shoulders, and the lower part of the legs, as well as the paunch, were reserved and not burnt (Herod. 2:40). The fat was generally regarded as the best part of the offering, and most acceptable to the gods. This was probably on account of its burning with a bright flame and helping to consume the rest of the offering. The caul that is above the liver. Probably the membrane which covers the upper part of the liver, sometimes called "the small omentum."
