"By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh." ( Hebrews 11:4)
And from the Hebrew texts; "And Abel he too brought of the firstborn of his flocks and of their fattest, and the Lord turned to Abel and to his offering."
And again, when we look to Jewish sacrificial practices we see that Fat represented perfection and good health in the sacrificial animal.
