What does Leviticus 6:8 mean?
Adam Clarke's Commentary
Verse 8 And the Lord spake unto Moses - At this verse the Jews begin the 25th section of the law; and here, undoubtedly, the 6th chapter should commence, as the writer enters upon a new subject, and the preceding verses belong to the fifth chapter. The best edited Hebrew Bibles begin the 6th chapter at this verse.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on Leviticus 6:8-13
The daily sacrifice of a lamb is chiefly referred to. The priest must take care of the fire upon the altar. The first fire upon the altar came from heaven, ch. 9:24; by keeping that up continually, all their sacrifices might be said to be consumed with the fire from heaven, in token of God's acceptance. Thus should the fire of our holy affections, the exercise of our faith and love, of prayer and praise, be without ceasing.

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge
At this verse the Jews begin the twenty-fifth section of the
law, and also, in the best Hebrew Bibles, the sixth chapter,
which undoubtedly ought to begin here, as the inspired writer
enters upon a new subject; the former part of the book being
intended for the instruction of the people relative to the
several sacrifices to be brought; but this for the
instruction of the priests respecting some particulars of
their official services.
