3:1“If his offering is a sacrifice (“SACRIFICE” USUALLY MEANS IT IS TO BE EATEN BY THE ONE(S) MAKING THE SACRIFICE) of peace offering, if he offers an animal from the herd, male or female, (BULL OR HEIFER) he shall offer it without blemish before the Lord. 2And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and kill it at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall throw the blood against the sides of the altar. 3And from the sacrifice of the peace offering, as a food offering to the Lord, he shall offer the fat covering the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails, 4and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins, and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys.

All fat is the Lord’s. 17It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations, in all your dwelling places, that you eat neither fat nor blood.”
BIBLEBONESANDLIGAMENTS:
1 Sam 1:1There was a certain man of Ramathaim-zophim of the hill country of Ephraim whose name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, an Ephrathite. 2He had two wives. The name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other, Peninnah. And Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. 3Now this man used to go up year by year from his city to worship and to sacrifice to the Lord of hosts at Shiloh, where the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were priests of the Lord. 4On the day when Elkanah sacrificed, he would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and daughters. 5But to Hannah he gave a double portion, because he loved her, though the Lord had closed her womb. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF LEVITICUS IN ACTION IN ISRAEL DURING THE TIME OF THE JUDGES
LET’S PUT ON OUR NEW COVENANT DECODER GLASSES ...
Jn 6:53 So Jesus said to them (TEACHING IN THE CAPERNAUM SYNAGOGUE), “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 55For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 57As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever feeds on me, he also will live because of me. 58This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like the bread the fathers ate, and died. Whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” 59Jesus said these things in the synagogue, as he taught at Capernaum.
1 Cor 11:25 In the same way also he (JESUS) took the cup (OF WINE), after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
AND THAT WILL WRAP UP LEV CH 3
