Aaron’s sons the priests are to arrange the pieces, the head, and the suet on top of the burning wood on the altar.

He will cut the animal into pieces with its head and its suet, and the priest will arrange them on top of the burning wood on the altar.

He will tear it open by its wings without dividing the bird. Then the priest is to burn it on the altar on top of the burning wood. It is a burnt offering, a fire offering of a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

From the oil remaining in his palm the priest will put some on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the blood of the restitution offering.
