Context — Laws of Peace Offeringsgenerated

This is part of a broader set of laws regarding sacrifices, emphasizing the importance of specific organs in the sacrificial system, which reflects the deep connection between the act of sacrifice and the worship of God. The focus on the kidneys and liver highlights their significance in ancient Israelite sacrificial practices.
Cross References
The Key Word — יֹתֶרֶת, hai.yo.Te.retgenerated
The word יֹתֶרֶת (yothereth) refers specifically to a lobe or appendage, particularly the caudate lobe of the liver in sacrificial contexts. It is derived from a root meaning 'redundant' or 'outhanging,' indicating its physical form.
In this verse, it signifies a specific part of the liver that is to be removed during the sacrificial process. This detail underscores the meticulous nature of the sacrificial laws, where every part of the offering is specified.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses the lobe for יֹתֶרֶת, and this is consistent across the KJV, ASV, and YLT.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb יְסִירֶֽנָּה (he will remove it) governs the entire verse, with multiple noun phrases detailing what is to be removed. The structure emphasizes the action of removal as central to the sacrificial process.
The Hebrew word order places the important elements of the offering at the forefront, highlighting the kidneys and liver as essential components of the sacrifice.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates יֹתֶרֶת as λοβὸν (lobon), which indicates a focus on the lobe of the liver. This choice aligns with the sacrificial context, showing continuity in the understanding of this organ's significance.
The use of λοβὸν suggests a technical understanding of the liver's anatomy in the sacrificial system, emphasizing the specific parts that were to be offered.

(chelebh, chelebh): The layer of subcutaneous fat and the compact suet surrounding the viscera and imbedded in the entrails, which, like the blood, was forbidden as food in the Mosaic code (Le 3:17). It was to be sacrificed to God by being burnt upon the altar (Le 3:16; 30). This had to be done on the very day on which a beast had been slaughtered, to remove temptation from the Israelite to use it otherwise (Ex 23:18). The law was probably a sanitary restriction, for, at an early date, leprosy, scrofula and disfiguring cutaneous diseases were thought to be caused by the use of fat as food. It was, moreover, an important pedagogical provision teaching the idea of self-denial, and the maxim that the richest and best meat of the…
Fat
(Heb. heleb) denotes the richest part of the animal, or the fattest of the flock, in the account of Abel’s sacrifice (Gen. 4:4). It sometimes denotes the best of any production (Gen. 45:18; Num. 18:12; Ps. 81:16; 147:47). The fat of sacrifices was to be burned (Lev. 3:9-11; 4:8; 7:3; 8:25; Num. 18:17. Comp. Ex. 29:13-22; Lev. 3:3-5).
It is used figuratively for a dull, stupid state of mind (Ps 17:10).
i.e. VAT, the word employed in the Authorized Version to translate the Hebrew term yekeb , in (Joel 2:24; 3:13) The word commonly used for yekeb is "winepress" or "winefat," and once "pressfat." (Haggai 2:16) The "vats" appear to have been excavated out of the native rock of the hills on which the vineyards lay.
The fat portions of animals offered in sacrifice were always to be consumed, as being the choice part and especially sacred to the Lord. The blood was also sacred, as containing the life of the animal. The Jews were forbidden to eat either, Le 3:16,17; 7:23-27.

loinz (chalats, Aramaic charats, mothen, kecel, yarekh; osphus): This variety of Hebrew synonyms seems to be used rather promiscuously for the loins, though there is no little difference in the secondary meanings of these words. They represent various modes of expressing the loins as the seat of strength and vigor (Job 40:16, Hebrew mothen, here used of Behemoth), the center of procreative power, the portion of the body which is girded about, and is considered as specially needful of covering, even under primitive conditions of life (Job 31:20), and where painful disease most effectually unfits a man for work and warfare.

liv'-er (qabhedh, derived from a root meaning "to be heavy," being the heaviest of the viscera; Septuagint hepar): The word is usually joined with the Hebrew yothereth (see CAUL) (Ex 29:13,22; Le 9:10,19) as a special portion set aside for the burnt offering.
This represents the large lobe or flap of the liver, Lobos tou hepatos (thus, Septuagint and Josephus, Ant, III, ix, 2, (228)). Others, however, interpret it as the membrane which covers the upper part of the liver, sometimes called the "lesser omenturn." Thus, the Vulgate: reticulurn iecoris. It extends from the fissures of the liver to the curve of the stomach. Still others consider it to be the "fatty mass at the opening of the liver, which reaches to the kidneys and becomes visible upon the removal of the lesser omentum…
Liver
(Heb. kabhed, “heavy;” hence the liver, as being the heaviest of the viscera, Ex. 29:13, 22; Lev. 3:4, 1, 10, 15) was burnt upon the altar, and not used as sacrificial food. In Ezek. 21:21 there is allusion, in the statement that the king of Babylon “looked upon the liver,” to one of the most ancient of all modes of divination. The first recorded instance of divination (q.v.) is that of the teraphim of Laban. By the teraphim the LXX. and Josephus understood “the liver of goats.” By the “caul above the liver,” in Lev. 4:9; 7:4, etc., some understand the great lobe of the liver itself.
