SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:2
Y pondrá su mano sobre la cabeza de su ofrenda, y la degollará a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio; y los sacerdotes, hijos de Aarón, rociarán su sangre sobre el altar en derredor.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Leviticus 3:2
Verse 2. Lay his hand upon the head of his offering] See this rite explained, See "Exod. xxix. 10", and See "chap. i. 4". "As the burnt-offering, (chap. i.,)" says Mr. Ainsworth, "figured our reconciliation to God by the death of Christ, and the meat-offering, (chap. ii.,) our sanctification in him before God, so this peace-offering signified both Christ's oblation of himself whereby he became our peace and salvation, (Eph. ii. 14-16; Acts xiii. 47; Heb. v. 9; Heb. ix. 28,) and our oblation of praise, thanksgiving, and prayer unto God."
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 2. And he shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering , etc.] “His right hand with strength”, the Targum of Jonathan says; perhaps both his hands were imposed; the Septuagint and Arabic versions read it in the plural number, “hands”; this same rite was used in the sacrifice of burnt offering, (see Gill on “ Leviticus 1:4”); which might be done in any place in the court where it was slain, only with this difference: according to Maimonides f75 , there was no confession of sin made at laying on of hands upon the peace offerings, but words of praise were spoken: and kill it at the door of the congregation ; it seems as if it was not the priest, but the owner that brought it, and laid his hands on it, that killed it; and so the last mentioned writer says, that slaying the peace offering by a stranger was right; and as he and others say, it might be slain in any part of the court; it was not obliged to be slain in the north part of it, as the burnt offering was, ( Leviticus 1:11) and Aaron’s sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about ; in like manner as the blood of the burnt offering was, and it was done with two sprinklings, which were as four f77 ; (see Gill on “ Leviticus 1:5”) this was typical of the blood of Christ, called “the blood of sprinkling”.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-5 - The peace-offerings had regard to God as the giver of all good things These were divided between the altar, the priest, and the owner. The were called peace-offering, because in them God and his people did, a it were, feast together, in token of friendship. The peace-offering were offered by way of supplication. If a man were in pursuit of an mercy, he would add a peace-offering to his prayer for it. Christ in our Peace, our Peace-offering; for through him alone it is that we can obtain an answer of peace to our prayers. Or, the peace-offering wa offered by way of thanksgiving for some mercy received. We must offe to God the sacrifice of praise continually, by Christ our Peace; an then this shall please the Lord better than an ox or bullock.
