With the 'grain offering' there was no blood in this offering. No animal was slain. It was an offering of flour, roasted grain, salt and oil.


With the peace offering, the offerer had to bring the animal and lay his hand on its head. Thereby, he was confessing that through the death of that animal, he had come to peace with God.

When we present our bodies to the Lord, it is very easy to say, "Lord, I give my body totally to You." But we don't know whether we have offered it all, until we "cut it up". What does it mean to cut it up and offer it piece by piece, as was done with the burnt offering? It means that we offer our own bodily parts piece by piece to God.

When we look at Jesus life, we don't think only of His death at Calvary, but also of His whole life where He presented Himself to the Father fully saying “a body thou has prepared for Me...and I have come to do Thy will O God. (in that body)"
