Leviticus 10:15 Explained in Context
Use this verse as a doorway into the larger passage—not as an isolated saying.
Verse 15. 15The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and thy sons’ with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath commanded.

- Leviticus 10:12-20
Place Leviticus 10:15 inside 10:12-20. This verse repeats the presentation and enduring allocation of breast and thigh. Its surrounding procedure or case makes the larger point: Moses directs priestly eating, becomes angry when the goat is burned, hears Aaron's grief-shaped reasoning, and accepts the explanation.
Why It Needs Context
The verse repeats the presentation and enduring allocation of breast and thigh. Follow Leviticus 10:12-20 before drawing an enduring truth, since the surrounding case determines what this detail does and does not establish.
