Leviticus 2:1-16 — The Grain Offering

Lev.2.1-16

¹When anyone brings an offering of a grain offering to Yahweh, his offering shall be of fine flour. He shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it. ²He shall bring it to Aaron's sons, the priests. The priest shall scoop out from there a handful of its fine flour and of its oil, along with all its frankincense, and the priest shall burn its memorial portion on the altar, an offering by fire, a pleasing aroma to Yahweh. ³And the remainder of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings by fire to Yahweh. ⁴When you bring an offering of a grain offering baked in an oven, it shall be of fine flour: unleavened cakes mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers smeared with oil. ⁵If your offering is a grain offering prepared on a griddle, it shall be of fine flour mixed with oil, unleavened. ⁶You shall crumble it into pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering. ⁷If your offering is a grain offering prepared in a deep pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. ⁸You shall bring the grain offering that is made of these things to Yahweh; it shall be presented to the priest, and he shall bring it near to the altar. ⁹The priest shall lift up from the grain offering its memorial portion and burn it on the altar, an offering by fire, a pleasing aroma to Yahweh. ¹⁰And the remainder of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the offerings by fire to Yahweh. ¹¹No grain offering that you bring to Yahweh shall be made with leaven, for you shall not burn any leaven or any honey as an offering by fire to Yahweh. ¹²As an offering of firstfruits you may bring them to Yahweh, but they shall not go up on the altar as a pleasing aroma. ¹³And every offering of your grain offering you shall season with salt; you shall not allow the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your grain offering. With all your offerings you shall bring salt. ¹⁴If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to Yahweh, you shall bring fresh heads of grain roasted with fire, crushed grain of the fresh ear, as the grain offering of your firstfruits. ¹⁵You shall put oil on it and lay frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. ¹⁶The priest shall burn its memorial portion—some of its crushed grain and some of its oil, along with all its frankincense—as an offering by fire to Yahweh.
