It must be eaten
This phrase underscores the immediacy and urgency of consuming the sacrificial offering. In the Hebrew context, the word "eaten" (אָכַל, 'akal) implies not just the physical act of eating but also a deeper spiritual participation in the sacrificial system. The consumption of the offering symbolizes a communion with God, reflecting the intimate relationship between the Israelites and their Creator. This act of eating is a reminder of God's provision and the sustenance He provides, both physically and spiritually.

that same day
The requirement to eat the offering on the same day it is sacrificed highlights the concept of holiness and purity. In ancient Israel, the idea of time was closely linked to the sacredness of the act. The Hebrew word for "day" (יוֹם, yom) signifies a complete cycle, emphasizing the completeness and perfection of God's commands. This stipulation prevents the offering from becoming defiled or corrupted, ensuring that the act of worship remains pure and acceptable to God.

do not leave any of it until morning
This command further reinforces the immediacy and sacredness of the sacrificial meal. The prohibition against leaving any of the offering until morning (בֹּקֶר, boqer) serves as a safeguard against decay and impurity. In the ancient Near Eastern context, the morning was seen as a time of renewal and new beginnings. By consuming the offering entirely before the dawn, the Israelites demonstrate their obedience and reverence for God's instructions, acknowledging His sovereignty over time and creation.

I am the LORD
This declarative statement serves as the divine seal of authority and purpose behind the command. The use of the divine name (יְהוָה, YHWH) is a powerful reminder of God's covenant relationship with Israel. It emphasizes His unchanging nature and His role as the ultimate lawgiver. This phrase calls the Israelites to remember who God is—holy, righteous, and deserving of their complete devotion and obedience. It is a call to recognize His presence in their lives and to live in a manner that reflects His holiness.

(30) On the same day it shall be eaten.--This shows that the sacrifice here spoken of belonged to the first class of peace offerings, the flesh of which had to be eaten up on the same day. (See Leviticus 7:15.)
