Subject: Where the priest impatient and greedy? |
Bible Note: Thanks Cheri, Your 2 cents are appreciated. Verse 13 says it was the custom of the priest. Therefore it was customary. I don't think the procedure of poking a fork in a pot of sacrificial meat is inspired by God. God gave a procedure for the entire sacrificial process in Leviticus. It is quite long and detailed. That is why I need the help. Maybe I missed a section in the procedure that allows the priest or his helper to poke a fork in the pot of sacrificial meat. Albert |
