Fausets
(See SACRIFICE.) Eucharistic, indicating that the offerer was already by the atonement at peace with God (Leviticus 3; Le 7:11-34; 23:19-20). Spontaneous, "at your own will" (Le 19:5); the only regularly recurring one was that of two firstling lambs at Pentecost. The meat offering on the other hand was regularly ordained.

For whoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire to the LORD, even the soul that eateth it shall be cut off from his people. Moreover, ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings. Whatever soul it may be that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.

And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar: but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'. And the right shoulder shall ye give to the priest for a heave-offering of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings. He among the sons' of Aaron that offereth the blood of the peace-offerings, and the fat, shall have the right shoulder for his part.
