But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water: and the priest shall burn all on the altar, [to be] a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.Leviticus 1:13 reads:
But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring [it] all, and burn [it] upon the altar: it [is] a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.Leviticus 1:17 reads:
And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof, [but] shall not divide [it] asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that [is] upon the fire: it [is] a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.A savor is "a characteristic taste, flavor, or smell, especially a pleasant one." A burnt sacrifice is an offering of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
2 Corinthians 2:14-16 read:
Now thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one [we are] the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. ...2 Corinthians says, "we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ" to those who are saved or who are not saved. May I abide in Christ each moment today so that I may offer an offering of a sweet savor unto the Lord.
