| From
a surface examination of cultic language and activity parallels in the
previous tables, there appears to be no cultic-counterfeit cultic
connection between the fat which is lifted up from the cultic sacrifice
and the daily (hattamid) which is lifted up from the cultic beast
sacrifice in Dn. 8:11. The following discussion will establish the
relationship and the connecting link between the up-lifted fat and “the
daily” which is lifted up. Throughout the discussion it must be
recognized that when the priest lifted up the fat from the sacrifice to
the altar of burnt offering, it was burned as incense and always resulted
in a sweet aroma to Jehovah (eg. see Lev. 3:5, 16; 4:10; 4:31; 17:6; Num.
18:17).
