민수기 6:20의 주석

קדש הוא לכהן IT IS HOLY FOR THE PRIEST — The cake, the wafer and the shoulder are a heave-offering for the priest.

The loaf. The word הוא (it) which normally refers to a single item, refers to what was waved, as dictated by the context. Thus it refers to the three items and הוא is in place of הם (they).

על חזה התנופה ועל שוק התרומה, “together with breast of waving and the thigh of heaving;” in other words: together with the breast and the thigh.

על חזה התנופה means: BESIDES THE BREAST AND THE SHOULDER which are due to him (the priest) from all feast-offerings, there is to be added to the portions assigned to the priest in the case of the Nazarite’s feast-offerings, this shoulder. Because the feast-offerings of the Nazarite are included in the general rule governing feast-offerings but were excepted to become subject to a new matter — the setting apart of the shoulder for the priest — it became necessary to restore them to the general rule of שלמים by expressly stating that they are subjected also to the setting apart of the breast and thigh as are שלמים in general (Sifrei Bamidbar 37).

Rashi mentions what is “due to him” meaning those items mentioned previously in Parshas Tzav (Vayikra 7:34), and the peace-offerings of the nazir are included among them. They were only written here for the foreleg that is added in the nazirite peace-offerings but is not part of the other peace-offerings.

Because the [nazirite] peace-offerings were. You might ask: If so, since the nazirite peace-offerings were included in the group of normal peace-offerings, where the Torah writes “for the breast of the wave offering …” (Vayikra 7:34) why did the Torah have to write “besides the breast of the wave-offering…” here? Rashi answers that it is “because the [nazirite] peace-offerings…”
