burnt offering
Danh từ
Số nhiều: burnt offerings
This term is primarily used in theological, biblical, or historical contexts to describe a specific type of ritual sacrifice. It carries a solemn, sacred connotation and is rarely used in secular or modern conversation unless referring to ancient religious practices.
Because it refers to a specific ritual act, it is often associated with concepts of atonement, purification, or devotion. In a liturgical context, it is distinguished from other types of offerings, such as grain offerings or peace offerings, by the requirement that the sacrifice be entirely consumed by fire.
