Context of Exodus 29:13

Take all the fat that covers the entrails and the lobe of the liver, and both kidneys with the fat on them, and burn them on the altar. 14But burn the flesh of the bull and its hide and dung outside the camp; it is a sin offering. 15Take one of the rams, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on its head.
