- Exodus 29:22
Take the fat from the ram, the fat tail, the fat covering the entrails, the lobe of the liver, both kidneys with the fat on them, and the right thigh (since this is a ram for ordination),
Commentary on Exodus 29:222 voices
Hence under the divine law the priest receives the shoulder for sacrifice, and this the right one and separate; to signify that his action should be not only profitable, but even singular; and that he should not merely do what is right among bad men, but transcend even the well-doers among those that are under him in the virtue of his conduct, as he surpasses them in the dignity of his order.
Gregory the Dialogist· The Book of Pastoral Rule, Part 2, Chapter 3Patristic
The fat and the rump - The rump or tail of some of the eastern sheep is the best part of the animal, and is counted a great delicacy.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- Leviticus 3:1
“If one’s offering is a peace offering and he offers an animal from the herd, whether male or female, he must present it without blemish before the LORD.
Commentary on Leviticus 3:12 voices
And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering,.... The Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan render it, the "sacrifice of holinesses", or "sanctifications"; so called, not because they were more holy than other sacrifices; for they were what the Jews (c) call the lighter holy things, in distinction from the most holy things, such as the meat offerings were, Lev 2:10 but as Ainsworth suggests, either because none but holy persons might eat of them, Lev 7:19 though this also was enjoined in other sacrifices, or because hereby the name of God was sanctified.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The peace-offering (like the burnt-offering, Lev 1:3, and the Minchah, Lev 2:1) is here spoken of as if it was familiarly known before the giving of the Law. “Peace-offering” seems preferable to “thank-offering,” which occurs in several places in the margin of our Bible. “thank-offering” appears to be the right name for a subordinate class of peace-offering.

- Leviticus 4:9
both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which he is to remove with the kidneys—
Commentary on Leviticus 4:91 voice
By this the intention of the offering and of the atonement made by it was directed to the glory of God, who, having been dishonoured by the sin, was thus honoured by the sacrifice. It signified the sharp sufferings of our Lord Jesus, when he was made sin (that is, a sin-offering) for us, especially the sorrows of his soul and his inward agonies.
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
- Leviticus 4:10
just as the fat is removed from the ox of the peace offering. Then the priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering.
Commentary on Leviticus 4:101 voice

- Leviticus 7:4
both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which is to be removed with the kidneys.
Commentary on Leviticus 7:41 voice
The fat that is on them - Chiefly the fat that was found in a detached state, not mixed with the muscles; such as the omentum or caul, the fat of the mesentery, the fat about the kidneys, etc. See Clarke’s note on Lev 3:9, etc.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical

The priest shall burn them on the altar as an offering made by fire to the LORD; it is a guilt offering.

Moses also took all the fat that was on the entrails, the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys and their fat, and burned it all on the altar.

On the altar he burned the fat, the kidneys, and the lobe of the liver from the sin offering, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
- Deuteronomy 32:14
with curds from the herd and milk from the flock, with the fat of lambs, with rams from Bashan, and goats, with the choicest grains of wheat. From the juice of the finest grapes you drank the wine.
Commentary on Deuteronomy 32:142 voices
Fat of kidneys of wheat - Almost every person knows that the kidney is enveloped in a coat of the purest fat in the body of the animal, for which several anatomical reasons might be given. As the kidney itself is to the abundantly surrounding fat, so is the germ of the grain to the lobes or farinaceous parts.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
Fat of lambs - For though the fat wherewith the inward parts were covered was not to be eaten by them, but offered to God, yet that fat which was mixed with the flesh they might eat, as the Jewish doctors note.
