Commentary on Hebrews 13:11

Theological / Devotional

Those beasts. When the blood of the sin offering was carried into the sanctuary, as in the case of the anointed priest or the whole congregation, the priest was not to eat of the flesh but to burn it without the camp (Lev. 6:30). Similarly, Jesus “suffered without the gate” (Heb. 13:12; cf. John 19:17), after which He ministered His own blood in the heavenly sanctuary (Heb. 9:12). Under the old sacrificial system the priests would have had no right to eat their usual portion of such a sacrifice (ch. 13:10), but Christ said, “Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you” (1 Cor. 11:24).
