The fat symbolized richness and abundance, and its offering was a sign of giving the best to God. This practice is consistent with other ancient Near Eastern cultures where fat was a valuable commodity.the fat tail The fat tail refers to the fatty tissue found in the tail of certain breeds of sheep, particularly those in the Middle East. This part of the animal was highly prized and considered a delicacy. Its inclusion in the sacrifice underscores the importance of offering valuable portions to God.the fat covering the entrails The fat covering the entrails, or the suet, was considered a choice part of the animal. In the sacrificial system, the entrails and their fat were often burned on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the Lord, symbolizing the inner purity and dedication required of the priests.the lobe of the liver The liver was associated with life and vitality in ancient cultures. Offering the lobe of the liver in the ordination sacrifice may symbolize the dedication of the priest's life and service to God. The liver's role in purification and detoxification can also be seen as a metaphor for spiritual cleansing.both kidneys with the fat on them The kidneys were considered the seat of emotion and thought in ancient Hebrew culture. Offering the kidneys, along with their fat, signifies the dedication of one's innermost thoughts and emotions to God. This act of sacrifice represents a total commitment to God's service.and the right thigh The right thigh was traditionally given to the priest as a portion of the peace offering. In the context of ordination, it signifies the priest's right to partake in the offerings and his role in mediating between God and the people. The right side often symbolizes strength and favor in biblical texts.(since this is a ram for ordination) The ordination of priests was a significant event in Israel's religious life, marking the consecration of individuals to serve in the tabernacle. The use of a ram, a valuable and strong animal, underscores the importance of the priestly role. This ordination process foreshadows the ultimate High Priest, Jesus Christ, who would offer Himself as the perfect sacrifice for humanity's sins.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a> The leader of the Israelites, chosen by God to deliver His people from Egypt and to mediate the covenant at Sinai. 2. <a href="/topical/a/aaron_and_his_sons.htm">Aaron and His Sons</a> The first priests of Israel, set apart for service to God.

(See <a href="/context/leviticus/3-9.htm" title="And he shall offer of the sacrifice of the peace offering an offering made by fire to the LORD; the fat thereof, and the whole rump, it shall he take off hard by the backbone; and the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards,">Leviticus 3:9-11</a>.) By "the rump" is meant the broad fat tail which characterises Oriental sheep, and which is said to weigh from six to twenty pounds. (Fellows, Asia Minor, p. 10. Comp. Herod. iii. 113; Leo African. 9 p. 293A.)The caul above the liver.--See Note 2 on <a href="/exodus/29-13.htm" title="And you shall take all the fat that covers the inwards, and the lobe that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar.">Exodus 29:13</a>.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/exodus/29.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 22. - The rump. Rather, "the tail." Oriental sheep have very commonly a broad fat tail, which weighs from six to twenty pounds, and is sometimes laid upon a little cart with two wheels, which the sheep drags after it (Herod. 3:113; Leo African. 9. p. 293 A; Fellows, Asia Minor, p. 10; Gesenius ad voc. אליה). There is no doubt that a "tail" of this kind is here meant. The caul. Rather, "the membrane." See the comment on ver 13. The right shoulder. Or "leg," according to some.
