SUCCINCT SUMMARY
----------------
Although most sacrificial procedures were done
by priests, nevertheless, from 2Ch30-17 we infer
that the slaughtering of the animal can be done by
a non-priest.

Nu19-03 states (concerning the Red Heiffer) that
the animal should be SLAUGHTERED IN THE PRESENCE
OF ELAZAR  THE PRIEST.

Ordinarily I would simply state that the Bible
is using a TYPICAL  EXAMPLE and that we need not
literally require that slaughter be done before
the priest.(The typical example method is a
legitimate Biblical method of exegesis)

However  by aligning half a dozen verses talking
about slaughtering in sacrifices we find that this
phrase -- slaughter it IN THE PRESENCE OF THE
PRIEST -- is peculiar. We therefore conclude that
the red heiffer must be slaughtered in the presence
of the officiating priest.

COMMENTS
 
*1  We know from 2Chr30-17 that a non-Priest may
slaughter (Most sacrificial procedures must be
done by a Priest).

From the above list we however learn, that in
the red heiffer, the non-Priest slaughtering
the animal must do it in the presence of the
Officiating Priest
