When Aaron was consecrated high priest, Moses and his coadjutors were enjoined to sanctify or set apart the shoulder of the ram used for the consecration, called the shoulder of the heave-offering, which was to be waved and heaved up. It thenceforth became Aaron's and his sons', as an offering by the Israeli tes from their peace offerings to Jehovah. Similar arrangements were barried out in all future time (Exod. xxix. 27, 28), and all heave-offerings were to belong to Aaron and his sons with their legitimate succe ors (Num. xviii. 8, 19). They were specially given in connection with peace offerings (Lev. vii. 11-14). Heave-offerings were to be given when the first bread of the land was consumed, and in connection with the produce of the threshing-floor (Num. xv. 19-21; cf. Deut. xii. 6). Even tithes were looked on as heave-offerings (xviii. 24); so was a share of the prisoners, animals, and other prey taken in war (xxx i. 28, 29, 41). "Yeshall offer a cake of the first of your dough for an heave-offering."- Numbers xv. 20.
