Discovery BoxLeviticus 8:16-17 
Context8:16 Then he 1 took all the fat on the entrails, the protruding lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and their fat, 2 and Moses offered it all up in smoke on the altar, 3 8:17 but the rest of the bull – its hide, its flesh, and its dung – he completely burned up 4 outside the camp just as the Lord had commanded Moses. 5
1 tn Again, Aaron probably performed the slaughter and collected the fat parts (v. 16a), but Moses presented it all on the altar (v. 16b; cf. the note on v. 15 above).
2 sn See Lev 3:3-4 for the terminology of fat and kidneys here.
3 tn Heb “toward the altar” (see the note on Lev 1:9).
4 tn Heb “he burned with fire,” an expression which is sometimes redundant in English, but here means “burned up,” “burned up entirely.”
5 sn See Lev 4:11-12, 21; 6:30 [23 HT].
