The Burnt, Grain, Peace and Sin Offeringsby KalebRosendahl

Leviticus 1:6

And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.

The burnt offering ritual required that the victim be skinned and then divided into its pieces. That sacrificial ritual was the appointed means through which Christ represented His own ministry and death. Its prescribed outward acts therefore signified something far more important than the ceremony itself.
