the breast:
"And the priestª shall burnª °¹ the fatª upon the altar:ª but the breastª shall be¹ Aaron'sª and his sons'.ª ... For¹ ¹ the waveª breastª and the heaveª shoulderª have I takenª ° of¹ ¹ the childrenª of Israelª from off the sacrificesª ¹ of their peace offerings,ª and have givenª ° them unto Aaronª the priestª and unto his sonsª by a statuteª for everª from among¹ ¹ the childrenª of Israel.ª" {Lev 7:31-34} + "And Mosesª tookª °¹ the breast,ª and wavedª ° it [for] a wave offeringª beforeª the LORD:ª [for] of the ramª ¹ of consecrationª it was¹ Moses'ª part;² ¹ as¹ the LORDª commandedª °¹ Moses.ª" {Lev 8:29} + "And the breastsª and the rightª shoulderª Aaronª wavedª ° [for] a wave offeringª beforeª the LORD;ª as¹ Mosesª commanded.ª °" {Lev 9:21} + "The heaveª shoulderª and the waveª breastª shall they bringª ° with¹ the offerings made by fireª of the fat,ª to waveª ° [it for] a wave offeringª beforeª the LORD;ª and it shall be¹ thine, and thy sons'ª with¹ thee, by a statuteª for ever;ª as¹ the LORDª hath commanded.ª °" {Lev 10:15} + "And the priestª shall waveª ° them [for] a wave offeringª beforeª the LORD:ª this¹ [is] holyª for the priest,ª with¹ the waveª breastª and heaveª shoulder:ª and after² that¹ the Nazariteª may drinkª ° wine.ª" {Num 6:20} + "And this¹ [is] thine; the heave offeringª of their gift,ª with all¹ the wave offeringsª of the childrenª of Israel:ª I have givenª ° them unto thee, and to thy sonsª and to thy daughtersª with¹ thee, by a statuteª for ever:ª every one¹ that is cleanª in thy houseª shall eatª ° of it." {Num 18:11} + "And the fleshª of them shall be¹ thine, as the waveª breastª and as the rightª shoulderª are¹ thine. ...

the wave offering:
The wave offering and heave offering are thus distinguished by the Jewish writers. The former, called tenoophah, from nooph, to move, toss, was waved horizontally towards the four cardinal points, to signify that He to whom it was consecrated was the Lord of the whole earth; the latter, called teroomah, from room, to be elevated, was lifted perpendicularly upward and downward, in token of its being devoted to the God of heaven.

the ram of the consecration:
Ail milluim, literally, "the ram of filling;" so called, according to some, because at the consecration of the priests, certain pieces of the sacrifice were put into their hands ("And thou shalt putª ° all¹ in¹ the handsª of Aaron,ª and in¹ the handsª of his sons;ª and shalt waveª ° them [for] a wave offeringª beforeª the LORD.ª" {Exd 29:24}); on which account their consecration itself is called "filling their hands" ("And thou shalt put² ° them uponª ¹ Aaronª thy brother,ª and his sonsª with¹ him; and shalt anointª ° them, and consecrateª ª °¹ them, and sanctifyª ° them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.ª °" {Exd 28:41}). Rabbi Solomon gives a different reason for the ram being so called, from malai, to be full, complete; because the sacrifice completed the consecration, and thereupon the priests were fully invested in their office. Accordingly, the LXX render it by τελειωσις, consummation.
