Dictionary of Biblical Words
:
One of
the
three
parts that was the
priest
’s
portion
of the sacrifices (see Lev. 7), the
other
two being the
breast
and the
shoulder
. The meaning of the two latter is quite clear, the skin probably represents the beauty of the animal. Christians, therefore, typified by the priest, enjoy the
strength
, the
love
, and the beauty of
Christ
as their portion.
