SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:11
Y ha de degollarlo al lado del altar, al aquilón delante del SEÑOR; y los sacerdotes, hijos de Aarón, rociarán su sangre sobre el altar alrededor.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 11. And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the Lord , etc.] This is a circumstance not mentioned in the killing of the bullock: Maimonides says, there was a square place from the wall of the altar northward, to the wall of the court, and it was sixty cubits, and all that was over against the breadth of this, from the wall of the porch to the eastern wall, and it is seventy six cubits; and this foursquare place is called the “north”, for the slaying of the most holy things; so that it seems this being a large place, was fittest for this purpose. Aben Ezra intimates, as if some respect was had to the situation of Mount Zion; his note is, “on the side of the altar northward”, i.e. without, and so “the sides of the north”, ( Psalm 48:2) for so many mistake who say that the tower of Zion was in the midst of Jerusalem; and with this agrees Mr. Ainsworth’s note on ( Leviticus 6:25) hereby was figured, that Christ our sin offering should be killed by the priests in Jerusalem, and Mount Sion, which was on “the sides of the north”, ( Psalm 48:2) crucified on Mount Calvary, which was on the northwest side of Jerusalem; as by the Jews’ tradition, the morning sacrifice was killed at the northwest horn of the altar f32 : and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar ; (see Gill on “ Leviticus 1:5”).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-17 - Those who could not offer a bullock, were to bring a sheep or a goat and those who were not able to do that, were accepted of God, if the brought a turtle-dove, or a pigeon. Those creatures were chosen for sacrifice which were mild, and gentle, and harmless; to show the innocence and meekness that were in Christ, and that should be in Christians. The offering of the poor was as typical of Christ' atonement as the more costly sacrifices, and expressed as full repentance, faith, and devotedness to God. We have no excuse, if we refuse the pleasant and reasonable service now required. But we can n more offer the sacrifice of a broken heart, or of praise an thanksgiving, than an Israelite could offer a bullock or a goat, excep as God hath first given to us. The more we do in the Lord's service the greater are our obligations to him, for the will, for the ability and opportunity. In many things God leaves us to fix what shall be spent in his service, whether of our time or our substance; yet wher God's providence has put much into a man's power, scanty offerings wil not be accepted, for they are not proper expressions of a willing mind Let us be devoted in body and soul to his service, whatever he may cal us to give, venture, do, or suffer for his sake __________________________________________________________________
