*'''Method of Sacrifice''': Unlike the sin offering and the guilt offering, there was no specific animal that needed to be sacrificed. The sacrifice of fellowship offering was offered with '''bread made without yeast''' and mixed with oil, wafers spread with oil, and cakes. The meat of thank offerings had to be eaten on the day, but the meat offered for fulfilling a vow or meat of freewill offering were allowed to be consumed by the following day. After the priest offered the fellowship offering, a ceremony of a heave offering and a wave offering was performed. As for the meat of the fellowship offering, some was given to the priests who held the sacrificial ceremony, and some was given to the person who brought the sacrifice ([https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+7%3A11%E2%80%9321&version=NIV Leviticus 7:11–21]; [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+7%3A28%E2%80%9334&version=NIV 28–34]). | *'''Method of Sacrifice''': Unlike the sin offering and the guilt offering, there was no specific animal that needed to be sacrificed.
