inwards.
burn all.
a sweet.
 Fire signifies generally God's testing judgment. Fire and the sweet savor go together….The more He was tested, the more His perfections came out—the more the sweet savor came out before God. (Christ as Seen in the Offerings: The Burnt Offering by R.F. Kingscote)
 The washing in water accomplished for the offering inwardly and outwardly the purity which was intrinsically true only of Christ. (The Offerings of Leviticus: 2. Burnt Offering by W. Kelly)
 Given up, according to the purification of the sanctuary, to the trial of the judgment of God; for fire, as a symbol, signifies always the trial of the judgment of God. As to the washing with water, it made the sacrifice typically what Christ was essentially-pure. (Leviticus 1 by J.N. Darby)
 Here, then, Christ, completely offered up to God for the full expression of His glory, undergoes the full trial of judgment. The fire tries what He is. He is salted with fire. The perfect holiness of God, in the power of His judgment, tries to the uttermost all that is in Him. (Leviticus 1 by J.N. Darby)
 This consuming fire and trying of His inmost thoughts did, could, produce naught but a sweet savor to God. It is remarkable that the word used for burning the burnt offering is not the same as that of the sin offering, but the same as that of burning incense. (Leviticus 1 by J.N. Darby)
 It is not merely that the sins have been effaced by the expiatory act; but the perfect acceptability of Him who accomplished it and glorified God perfectly in it, the sweet savor of His sinless sacrifice, is our good odor of delight before God, and is ours; its acceptance, even Christ’s, is ours. (Leviticus 1 by J.N. Darby)
