Context of Leviticus 6:22

20Whatever touches its flesh will be holy. When any of its blood is splattered on a garment, you are to wash it in a holy place. 21But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled is to be broken, and if it is boiled in a bronze vessel, it is to be scoured, then rinsed in water. Every male among the kohanim is to eat of it—it is most holy. 23But no sin offering from which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place is to be eaten—it must be burned up with fire.
