In the peace offering instructions, Leviticus ends with a standing rule that no blood may be eaten. The command is presented as a perpetual statute “throughout your generations” wherever Israel lives. It is linked with the sacrificial context where blood is handled at the altar (Leviticus 3:17; Leviticus 7:26–27).
In Leviticus 3:14–17, the worshiper brings a peace offering and must give specific internal fats and organs to Yahweh. The priest burns these parts on the altar as an “offering made by fire,” described as pleasing. These verses conclude the instructions for the peace offering in Leviticus 3, following earlier directions for cattle, sheep, and goats. The chapter repeatedly identifies which portions go to the altar, especially the internal fat.
Leviticus 3:14–17 finishes the peace offering instructions by focusing on the animal’s internal fat and certain organs. The text’s explicit claims are concrete: the fat around the inner organs, the two kidneys with their fat, and a “cover” on the liver are removed, and the priest burns them on the altar (verses 14–16).
A careful answer keeps the immediate passage, the book's argument, and the whole-Bible storyline together, so the question is answered in context instead of as a detached idea.
Start with Leviticus 3:17, then read the surrounding section so the answer stays connected to the passage's flow.
17It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that you shall eat neither fat nor blood.
