Again, in the burnt-offering, we read, "The priest shall burn _all_;" whereas in the peace-offering, _a part_ only was burnt, that is, "the fat, the kidneys, and the caul." This makes it exceedingly simple. The most excellent portion of the sacrifice was laid on God's altar. The inward parts--the hidden energies--the tender sensibilities of the blessed Jesus, were devoted to God, as the only One who could perfectly enjoy them. Aaron and his sons fed upon "the wave breast" and "the heave shoulder."[6] (See, carefully, Lev. vii. 28-36.) All the members of the priestly family, in communion with their head, had their proper portion of the peace-offering; and now, all true believers constituted, by grace, priests unto God, can feed upon the _affections_ and the _strength_ of the true Peace-offering,--can enjoy the happy assurance of having His loving heart and powerful shoulder to comfort and sustain them continually.[7] "This is the portion of the anointing of Aaron, and of the anointing of his sons, out of the offerings of the Lord made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister unto the Lord in the priest's office; which the Lord commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that He anointed them by a statute forever throughout their generations." (Chap. vii. 35, 36.) [6] The "breast" and the "shoulder" are emblematical of love and power--strength and affection. [7] There is much force and beauty in verse 31--"The breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'." It is the privilege of all true believers to feed upon the affections of Christ--the changeless love of that heart which beats with a deathless and changeless love for them.
