A
burnt offering in Judaism (Hebrew: קָרְבַּן עוֹלָה, korban olah) is a form of sacrifice first described in the Hebrew
Bible. The term is first used of the sacrifices of Noah. As a tribute to God, a burnt
offering was entirely burnt on the altar. A
sacrifice (short for sacrifice of well-being) was partly burnt and most of it eaten in communion at a sacrificial meal. During the First Temple and Second Temple periods, the burnt
offering was a twice-daily animal sacrifice offered on the altar in the temple
in Jerusalem that was completely consumed by fire. The skin of the animal,
however, was not burnt but given to the priests respective of their priestly
division. These skins are listed as one of the twenty-four priestly gifts in
Tosefta Hallah.
Etymology
The Hebrew noun olah (עֹלָה) occurs 289 times in the
Masoretic Text of the Hebrew Bible. It means "that which goes up [in
smoke]". It is formed from the active participle of the Hiphil form of the
verb alah (עָלָה), "to cause to ascend." It was sometimes also called
kalil, an associated word found in Leviticus, meaning "entire".
Its traditional name in English is "holocaust", and
the word olah has traditionally been translated as "burnt offering."
The term was translated as holocauston in the Septuagint. Today, some English
Bible translations render the word as holocaust, and others translate it as
"burnt offering". For example, Exodus 18:12a is translated in the New
American Bible as Then Jethro, the father-in-law of Moses, brought a holocaust
and other sacrifices to God, while it is translated in the New International
Version as Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, brought a burnt offering and
other sacrifices to God.
In classical rabbinical literature, there are several different
etymologies given for the term olah, though all agree that it literally
translates as (that which) goes up. Some classical rabbis argued that the term
referred to ascent of the mind after making the sacrifice, implying that the
sacrifice was for atonement for evil thoughts, while others argued that it was
a sacrifice to the highest, because it is entirely intended for God. Modern
scholars, however, argue that it simply refers to the burning process, as the
meat goes up in flames.
The first uses of the olah for burnt offering refer to the
sacrifices of Noah "of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and
offered burnt offerings on the altar" (Genesis 8:20) and to the near-sacrifice of Isaac
by Abraham: "offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the
mountains" (Genesis
22:2). The third pre-Levitical burnt offering is that of Jethro, Moses'
father-in-law (Exodus 18:12).
