Graphic Bible · Scene 8 of 10

In a clean family area beside the sanctuary, Aaron, his adult sons, and his adult daughters share the cooked wave-offering breast and exactly one right thigh from a modest tray. A second tray with pale fat portions is being carried toward the distant altar by an Israelite worshipper. Include women as Aaron's daughters and distinguish this clean place from the inner holy court; no children, raw meat, blood, gore, extra thighs, or lavish feast.

14And you, and your sons and your daughters with you, shall eat the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution in a clean place, because they have been given as your portion and your sons’ portion from the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the sons of Israel.

15They shall bring the thigh of the contribution and the breast of the wave offering, along with the food offerings of the fat portions, to wave as a wave offering before Yahweh; and it shall be for you and for your sons with you as a permanent statute, just as Yahweh commanded.
