This verse in Leviticus 4
Commentary
3 notes on this verseBy 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.
This site's exposition
he shall remove all the fat from the bull of the sin offering
on Leviticus 4:8-10
The fat over the entrails, both kidneys and the lobe of the liver go up, the portions Leviticus 3:3-4 names in the peace offering. The parts that go up to God from a sin offering and from the offering a worshipper eats from are the same.
This site's exposition
Then the priest shall burn them on the altar of burnt offering
The fat is burned on the altar of burnt offering in the courtyard. The blood of this bull was carried inside to the altar of incense.
