Older translations tried this by calling this sacrifice a "peace
offering", but scholars have realised that this is a misunderstanding,
and so this translation has now been abandoned.


What do they consider it to be now?


The translation "fellowship offering" is more in vogue. But the best way to find out what this offering is is to read the passages describing it, Leviticus 3 and 7:11-21, and other accounts.
