Leviticus Chapter[BR] 3

1 "If you offer one of your cattle as a fellowship offering, whether it is a bull or a cow, it must have nothing wrong with it.

2 You must put your hand on the animal's head and kill the animal at the entrance of the Meeting Tent. Then Aaron's sons, the priests, will splash the blood on all four sides of the altar.

3 The priest will take a part of that fellowship offering as a gift to the Lord. He will take the fat that is over and around the inner parts.
