LEVITICUS 3

LAWS FOR PEACE OFFERINGS 

God gives Moses instructions to share with the Israelites regarding peace offerings. Unlike the burnt offering, which only allows male animals, the peace offering may include either male or female animals from the herd or flock.

These offerings were voluntary and often given to express gratitude or to show commitment to God. The blood of the animal is to be splashed against the sides of the altar and must never be consumed.
