Answer 1

References please - I don't see any Scripture here !

Answer 2

This was a provision of offering, one that was based on a vow or voluntary gift, which was presented as a communion sacrifice. The concept of the communion was sharing a gift with God, one that the giver also shared in it.

It was required that it was consumed within the first 2 days. Considering there was no system to keep meat, by the 3rd day the flesh would be corrupted, spoiled. That is why it was to be burned, and it would be unfit as gift to God. And logically should not be eaten.

You may see another pattern here, too. That is why Jesus' body was not allow to see corruption.

This is Peter's words on the day of Pentecost.

24 But God resurrected him by loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to continue to be held fast by it. 25 For David says respecting him, ‘I had Jehovah constantly before my eyes; because he is at my right hand that I may never be shaken. 26 On this account my heart became cheerful and my tongue rejoiced greatly. Moreover, even my flesh will reside in hope; 27 because you will not leave my soul in Ha′des, neither will you allow your loyal one to see corruption.

As you look in the writings of Paul, you will see that many features of the Jewish system held patterns for the ministry of Jesus.

Answer 3

Certain offerings that were brought the meat was cooked and the priest was allowed to eat the offering for food. Priest who served in the tabernacle or temple were not allowed to work or raise crops. The offerings brought in the priest that offered them could eat them for food and could give them to their family for food.

Lev 7:8  And the priest that offered any man's burnt offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered.

Lev 7:9  And all the meat offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying pan, and in the pan, shall be the priest's that offered it.

Lev 7:10  And every meat offering, mingled with oil, and dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another.

After the meat is cooked you have a certain amount of days to eat it before it would make you sick.

Lev 7:15  And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten the same day that it is offered; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.

Lev 7:16  But if the sacrifice of his offering be a vow, or a voluntary offering, it shall be eaten the same day that he offereth his sacrifice: and on the morrow also the remainder of it shall be eaten:

Lev 7:17  But the remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.

by the third day the meat would start to be bad and had to be destroyed not eaten.

The people of israel could not eat any fat or blood only lean meat with all the fat trimed off.

Answer 4

means if you take comunion in a unworthy manner( sin in your life pretend to take communion ; fake it) this is an abomination unto the lord.

Answer 5

Leviticus 7, vs 18 & 20

And…is to be eaten: Scripture is referring to someone who, at the time of slaughtering [the sacrifice], intends to eat it on the third day [in which case the sacrifice becomes invalid]. Now, one might think, however, that [the Torah means that the sacrifice does not become invalid because of intention, but] if one eats of it on the third day, that it would become invalid retroactively [as the verse literally means]. Scripture, therefore, says, הַמַּקְרִיב אוֹתוֹ לֹא יֵחָשֵׁב, meaning that it is invalidated only at the time of sacrificing it [i.e., slaughtering], and not on the third day. [Torath Kohanim 7:118] Hence, its explanation [of the verse] is as follows: At the time of sacrificing [slaughtering] the offering, this [intention] shall not enter one’s thoughts, and if one had this intention [at the time of slaughtering], it shall be rejected (פִּגּוּל).

20. A person who eats the flesh of a peace offering of the Lord, while his uncleanness is upon him, that soul shall be cut off from its people.

while his uncleanness is upon him

Scripture is referring to uncleanness of the body. [I.e., an unclean person who eats from the holy peace-offering, in which case, he incurs excision]. [Torath Kohanim 7:131] However, one who is clean, who eats the unclean flesh [of a peace-offering], is not punished with excision; nevertheless, he is punished for transgressing the Scriptural admonition [in the previous verse], “And the flesh that touches anything unclean, [shall not be eaten]. ” The admonition regarding an unclean person who eats clean flesh, however, is not written explicitly in the Torah, but our Sages derived this through a גְּזֵרָה שָׁוָה [an instance of similar wording. They had a tradition in certain Scriptural passages, that two common key words or expressions serve to link the laws of these seemingly unconnected passages. Here, the word טֻמְאָתוֹ appears in our verse and in Num. 19:13, and since the prohibition in Numbers has an admonition attached to it, so too, here, our prohibition is considered to have an admonition attached to it]. [Mak. 14b] Now, there are three mentions of the punishment of excision regarding persons who eat holy sacrificial meat, while their body is unclean [first, in Lev. 22:3, “Any man from among any of your offspring, who comes near the holy (sacrifices)…that soul shall be cut off,” where “comes near” means to eat (see Rashi there), and the second and third mentions are these verses (20 and 21).] Our Rabbis expounded on them in [Tractate] Shevuoth (7a), as follows: One of them is [needed to state] the general law; one of them is [needed to state] a particular case [namely, the peace-offering, in order to preclude the eating of certain clean foods that are not sacrificed on the altar, which do not have the punishment of excision]; and one of them is needed to teach us that the וְיוֹרֵד קָרְבָָּן עוֹלֶה [an ascending and descending sacrifice, namely an offering which has different options, an animal, birds, or flour, according to the ability of the one who brings it] that [when the verse says, “he incurs guilt” (Lev. 5:2), and may bring a קָרְבָּן עוֹלֶה וְיוֹרֵד Scripture is exclusively referring to the case [of a person in an unclean state, who] defiles the Sanctuary [i.e., enters it while in the unclean state], or [if he eats from] its holy sacrifices.

Answer 6

Like most Bible versus, what ever you want it to mean.

Answer 7

I believe this is pertaining to back in the Old Testament. Sacrifices had to be made. This was before Jesus. If you sacrificed an offering of meat for example, you couldnt eat any of it.
