Of sacrifices for trespasses and thanks offerings. No fat nor blood is
to be eaten.

holy.
Trespass.... Trespasses, for which these offerings were to be made,
were lesser offences than those for which the sin offerings were
appointed.
7:2. Therefore where the holocaust is immolated, the victim also for a
trespass shall be slain: the blood thereof shall be poured round about
the altar.
7:3. They shall offer thereof the rump and the fat that covereth the
entrails:
7:4. The two little kidneys, and the fat which is by the flanks, and
the caul of the liver with the little kidneys.
7:5. And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the burnt
sacrifice of the Lord for a trespass.
