Lev 8:17. The bullock — and his flesh — he burned — As commanded, Exo 29:14. The priests were not to eat of their own sin-offering, (Lev 6:23,) to teach them that they could not make a proper atonement for their own sins, much less for the sins of others; though God was pleased to appoint their eating the sin-offering of others to be a sign to the people of God’s accepting their sacrifice; and their eating of the sin- offering is therefore called making atonement for them, or bearing their iniquity. Compare Lev 6:26, with Lev 10:17; Lev 10:19; see also Exo 24:14; and Lev 19:7. His hide — Which, in the offerings for the people, was not burned, but given to the priest.

(17) But the bullock . . . he burnt . . . —Though none of the blood of this sin offering was brought into the sanctuary, whereby it became excluded from the rule laid down in Lev_6:30, yet the flesh was not allowed to be eaten, but like the sin offering of the high priest (Lev_4:3-12), and for the whole congregation (Lev_4:13-21), had to be burnt without the camp, since Moses could not eat it. because he was not a legally consecrated priest (see Lev_6:25), and the priest could not eat it because it was against the law for the sinner to partake of the sin offering which he brought himself. (See Lev_4:35.)
