Lev 7:9. All the meat or meal-offering shall be the priest’s — Except the part reserved by God, (Lev 2:2; Lev 2:9,) these being ready dressed, and hot, and to be eaten presently. And the priest who offered it was, in reason, to expect something more than his brethren who laboured not about it, and that he had only in this offering; for the others were equally distributed. For (Lev 7:10) every meat or meal-offering, which was of raw flour, whether mingled with oil or dry, that is, without oil, or drink-offering, all the sons of Aaron were to share equally among them. And there was manifest reason for this difference, because these were offered in greater quantities than the former; and, being raw, might more easily be reserved for the several priests, to dress them in the way which each of them might prefer.

Shall be the priest’s that offereth it — Thus individual diligence was stimulated and rewarded; but to provide the sick and aged priests with materials for their own sustenance and for offerings to God, the commandment is given in Lev_7:10 that all the sons of Aaron should have the oil and unbaked flour, the largest part, one as much as another — Thus there was a blending of individual interests with community-life as a safeguard against indolence. Moreover, if the whole had been given to the officiating priest there would have been more than he could consume. The cooked-bread offering is supposed to have been small in amount.

9. The three methods of preparing the Meal-Offering specified in this verse are also enumerated in Lev_2:4-7 (see notes there). Many commentators distinguish between these cooked forms of the Meal-offering (here assigned to the priest who offereth it) and the other Meal-Offerings ‘mingled with oil’ described in Lev_2:1-3; Lev_2:14-16, and ‘dry’ Meal-Offerings, such as the Sin-Offering of the poor man (Lev_5:11) and the jealousy-offering (Num_5:15). These belong to ‘all the sons of Aaron one as well as another’ (Lev_7:10). No reason is here given for this different assignment of the Meal-Offerings. All the Meal-Offerings of ch. 2 are mingled with oil, and according to the Jewish traditional interpretation ‘the meal-offering mingled with oil’ includes all the offerings of ch. 2, and the ‘dry’ offering refers to the Sin-Offering of the poor man, and the jealousy-offering. In Lev_2:3; Lev_2:10 and Lev_6:16; Lev_6:18 that which is left of the Meal-Offering, whether cooked or not, is assigned to ‘Aaron and his sons.’

The Pulpit Commentary 1880 · Public Domain Vers. 9-15. The peace offering of thanksgiving.
Vers. 9-15. The peace offering of thanksgiving.
At the conclusion of the instructions concerning the trespass offering, we have a few directions concerning the meat offering (verses 9, 10). Whatever of it was dressed was to be given to the priest that offered it, to be consumed by himself and his family. But that "mingled with oil, and dry" was to be divided amongst the sons of Aaron. The reason appears to be economical. What was prepared would not keep, and was therefore to be consumed at once; that which would keep was to be divided, to be used according to convenience. The God of grace is also the God of providence. And his providence is especially concerned for those who seek his grace. After these notes, the law of the sacrifice of the peace offering is formally considered.
Read full note →
I THE PEACE OFFERING OF THANKSGIVING.
1. There is fitness in this association.
(1) The peace offering has its name, (shelamim), from (shalem), to complete or make whole. It was instituted to express the manner in which our breaches of the covenant are made up by Christ. How the variance between God and man is composed through his atoning sacrifice!
(2) What, then, more fitting than that we should express our thankfulness to God in connection with the peace offering? Praise breaks spontaneously from the heart that is "reconciled to God through the death of his Son". (see Isa_12:1)
2. A bread offering accompanied this.
a. One portion of this bread offering was unleavened (verse 12). This portion was presented upon the altar. As leaven symbolized evil dispositions, no trace of it should be found in anything that touched God"s altar. (Lev_2:11)
b. But the other portion was leavened (verse 13). This portion was eaten by the worshipper, and expressed that he had evil dispositions that needed purging out. What a difference there is between the holy God and sinful man! What a merciful provision is that of the gospel of peace, that reconciles sinners to God!
II THE THANKSGIVING IN THE HEAVE OFFERING. (Verses 14, 15)
1. This was taken from the whole oblation.
(1) The word for oblation, ta (masseath), denotes that which is borne or carried, from a (nast), to bear or carry. It generally describes anything which was carried to the temple to be offered to God. It also expresses the design of all sacrifices to be the carrying or bearing of sin. (see Exo_28:38; also Lev_10:17 Lev_16:21)
(2) In the offerings of the Law this was typical; but in the offering of Christ real. (see Isa_53:4, 12Jo 1:29, margin; 1Pe_2:24)
(3) From the number of these typical sin-bearers borne to the temple, the heave offering was to be taken. It was a representative of the whole of them, and suggested that what was specifically expressed in it might be predicated of any of them.
2. It was lifted up in faith and gratitude to God.
(1) The heave offering had its name, hmwrt (terumah), from (rum, to lift up), because it was lifted up, viz. toward heaven, by the priest.
(2) This action expressed thankfulness to the source whence all blessings come to us, and especially those of redemption. Christ is the "Lord from heaven," the "heavenly gift" of a gracious Father. (see Joh_3:13, Joh_3:16, 31 4:10 6:32, 33 1Co_15:47 Heb_6:4)
3. It became the priest"s who sprinkled the blood of the peace offering.
(1) Those who make their peace with God through the blood of the cross not only offer thanks, but enjoy the blessings of thanksgiving. Thus a grateful heart is a" continual feast.
(2) It was eaten the same day that it was offered. In the very act of thanksgiving to God for his blessings we are blessed. Those who in everything "give thanks" can "rejoice evermore". (1Th_5:16-18)
(3) It was shared by the priest in his own community. (see Num_18:8, Num_18:11, Num_18:18, Num_18:19) Shared domestically. Shared religiously. The stranger had no part nor lot in the matter. J.A.M.
