1  * Lev 2:1 (Lev ch. 2) (#2b.109): The procedure for the grain offering (also called meal offering) “ ‘When anyone offers an offering of a meal offering to Adonai , his offering shall be of fine flour. He shall pour oil on it, and put frankincense on it. 2 He shall bring it to Aaron [Light-bringer]’s sons, the priests; and he shall take his handful of its fine flour, and of its oil, with all its frankincense; and the priest shall burn its memorial on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Adonai . 3 That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron [Light-bringer]’s and his sons’. It is a most holy thing of the offerings of Adonai made by fire.

4 “ ‘When you offer an offering of a meal offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil. 5 If your offering is a meal offering of the griddle, it shall be of unleavened fine flour, mixed with oil. 6 You shall cut it in pieces, and pour oil on it. It is a meal offering. (3) 7 If your offering is a meal offering of the pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. 8 You shall bring the meal offering that is made of these things to Adonai : and it shall be presented to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar. 9 The priest shall take from the meal offering its memorial, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Adonai . 10 That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron [Light-bringer]’s and his sons’. It is a thing most holy of the offerings of Adonai made by fire.

11  † Lev 2:11 (#2b.110): T. Not to offer leaven or honey in a grain offering / R. Not to burn honey or yeast on the Altar of Burnt Offerings “ ‘No meal offering, which you shall offer to Adonai , shall be made with yeast; for you shall burn no yeast, nor any honey, as an offering made by fire to Adonai . 12 As an offering of first fruits you shall offer them to Adonai : but they shall not rise up for a pleasant aroma on the altar. 13  ‡ Lev 2:13 (#2b.111): T. Salt must be offered with every grain offering / R. To salt all sacrifices Every offering of your meal offering you shall season with salt. § Lev 2:13 (#2b.112): T. Not to forget “the salt of the covenant with your God” with your grain offering / R. Not to omit the salt from sacrifices You must not omit the salt of the covenant of your God with your meal offering. With all your offerings you shall offer salt.

14 “ ‘If you offer a meal offering of first fruits to Adonai , you shall offer for the meal offering of your first fruits grain in the ear parched with fire, bruised grain of the fresh ear. 15 You shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it: it is a meal offering. 16 The priest shall burn as its memorial, part of its bruised grain, and part of its oil, along with all its frankincense: it is an offering made by fire to Adonai .
