Leviticus7:10
10 And every meat-offering mingled with oyl, and dry shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as much as another .
Without oyl, or drink-offering, as those Levit. 5. 11. Numb. 5. 15.
The sense may be either 1. That every priest shall have equal right to this, when the course of his ministration comes. But then there was no reason to make so great an alteration of the phrase, nor to make any distinction of the differing kinds of meat-offerings, if in both they were to be the Priest that offered them, as is expressed verse 9. and here, as they say, intended. Or rather 2. That these were to be equally divided among all the priests. And there was manifest reason for this difference, because these were in greater quantity than the former, and being raw might more easily and commodiously be divided and reserved for the several priests to dress it in that way which each of them best liked.
