Leviticus 7:15-18
15The meat of his ▼▼ In the verse “his” refers to the offerer.
thanksgiving peace offering must be eaten on the day of his offering; he must not set any of it aside until morning. 16 “‘If his offering is a votive or freewill sacrifice, ▼ it may be eaten on the day he presents his sacrifice, and also the leftovers from it may be eaten on the next day, ▼
▼ Heb “and on the next day and the left over from it shall be eaten.”
17but the leftovers from the meat of the sacrifice must be burned up in the fire ▼ on the third day. 18If some of the meat of his peace offering sacrifice is ever eaten on the third day it will not be accepted; it will not be accounted to the one who presented it, since it is spoiled, ▼▼ Or “desecrated,” or “defiled,” or “forbidden.” For this difficult term see J. Milgrom, Leviticus (AB), 1:422. Cf. NIV “it is impure”; NCV “it will become unclean”; NLT “will be contaminated.”
and the person who eats from it will bear his punishment for iniquity. ▼
