Who May Eat Priestly Holy Food and Restitution for Accidental Eating
Where this fits in the story: Priestly portions in Leviticus 6–7 establish holy food as part of the sanctuary economy.
Where Scripture takes it next: 1 Corinthians 9:13–14 explicitly uses altar-worker provision as a principle for supporting gospel workers, though it does not reproduce the household eligibility rules.
Leviticus 22:14 repeats the restoration-plus-one-fifth logic when a holy thing is eaten unintentionally, clarifying the practical restitution principle introduced here. The repeated added-fifth requirement shows that accidental misuse of holy property calls for material restoration as well as recognition of sacred ownership.
