Read in context

Leviticus 1:15–17 · Berean Standard Bible

15 Then the priest shall bring it to the altar, twist off its head, and burn it on the altar; its blood should be drained out on the side of the altar.

16 And he is to remove the crop with its contents and throw it to the east side of the altar, in the place for ashes.

17 He shall tear it open by its wings, without dividing the bird completely. And the priest is to burn it on the altar atop the burning wood. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
