7. Because the purification offering and the reparation offering are alike, both have the same ritual. The reparation offering belongs to the priest who makes atonement with it.
8. As for the priest who offers someone’s burnt offering, to him belongs the hide of the burnt offering that is offered.
9. Also, every grain offering that is baked in an oven or made in a pan or on a griddle shall belong to the priest who offers it,
10. whereas all grain offerings that are mixed with oil or are dry shall belong to all of Aaron’s sons without distinction.
11. This is the ritual for the communion sacrifice that is offered to the Lord.
12. If someone offers it for thanksgiving, that person shall offer it with unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers spread with oil, and cakes made of bran flour mixed with oil and well kneaded.
13. One shall present this offering together with loaves of leavened bread along with the thanksgiving communion sacrifice.
14. From this the individual shall offer one bread of each type of offering as a contribution to the Lord; this shall belong to the priest who splashes the blood of the communion offering.
15. The meat of the thanksgiving communion sacrifice shall be eaten on the day it is offered; none of it may be kept till the next morning.
16. However, if the sacrifice offered is a votive or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten on the day the sacrifice is offered, and on the next day what is left over may be eaten.
17. But what is left over of the meat of the sacrifice on the third day must be burned in the fire.
18. If indeed any of the flesh of the communion sacrifice is eaten on the third day, it shall not be accepted; it will not be reckoned to the credit of the one offering it. Rather it becomes a desecrated meat. Anyone who eats of it shall bear the penalty.
19. Should the meat touch anything unclean, it may not be eaten, but shall be burned in the fire. As for other meat, all who are clean may eat of it.
20. If, however, someone in a state of uncleanness eats the meat of a communion sacrifice belonging to the Lord, that person shall be cut off from the people.
21. Likewise, if someone touches anything unclean, whether it be human uncleanness or an unclean animal or an unclean loathsome creature, and then eats the meat of the communion sacrifice belonging to the Lord, that person, too, shall be cut off from the people.
