The wave-offering, together with the heave-offering, was a part of the peace-offering
The right shoulder of the victim, which was considered the choicest part, was “heaved” or held up in the sight of the Lord, and was to be eaten only by the priests and their families. The breast portion was “waved” before the Lord and eaten by the worshippers. On the second day of the passover feast, a sheaf of wheat and an unblemished lamb of the first year were waved (Ex. 29:24-27; Lev. 7:30-34; 8:27; 9:21; 10:14-15; 23:10-20; Num. 6:20; 18:11-18,26-29).
