Leviticus 1:2-4
Evangelical Heritage Version

2 He said, “Speak to the Israelites and tell them these things.”

Regulations for the Whole Burnt Offering

When any of you present an offering to the Lord, when it is from the livestock, you may present your offering from the herd or the flock.

3 If a person’s offering is a whole burnt offering[a] selected from the herd, he shall present a male without blemish. He shall present it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting so that it[b] will be accepted before the Lord. 4 He shall lay[c] his hand on the head of the burnt offering so that it may be accepted for him to make atonement on his behalf.

It is, therefore, called the whole burnt offering to distinguish it from the other sacrifices, which were only partially burned on the altar. The full name, the whole burnt offering, is sometimes abbreviated to the burnt offering.
