1And when any one offereth an oblation of a meal-offering unto Jehovah , his oblation shall be of fine flour ; and he shall pour oil upon it , and put frankincense thereon : 2and he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests ; and he shall take thereout his handful of the fine flour thereof , and of the oil thereof , with all the frankincense thereof . And the priest shall burn it as the memorial thereof upon the altar , an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah : 3and that which is left of the meal-offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons ’: it is a thing most holy of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire.
Preparation and Presentation
4And when thou offerest an oblation of a meal-offering baken in the oven , it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil , or unleavened wafers anointed with oil . 5And if thy oblation be a meal-offering of the baking-pan, it shall be of fine flour unleavened , mingled with oil . 6Thou shalt part it in pieces , and pour oil thereon : it is a meal-offering. 7And if thy oblation be a meal-offering of the frying-pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil . 8And thou shalt bring the meal-offering that is made of these things unto Jehovah : and it shall be presented unto the priest , and he shall bring it unto the altar . 9And the priest shall take up from the meal-offering the memorial thereof , and shall burn it upon the altar , an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah . 10And that which is left of the meal-offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons ’: it is a thing most holy of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire.
The Role of the Priests
11No meal-offering, which ye shall offer unto Jehovah , shall be made with leaven ; for ye shall burn no leaven , nor any honey , as an offering made by fire unto Jehovah . 12As an oblation of first- fruits ye shall offer them unto Jehovah : but they shall not come up for a sweet savor on the altar . 13And every oblation of thy meal-offering shalt thou season with salt ; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meal-offering: with all thine oblations thou shalt offer salt . 14And if thou offer a meal-offering of first-fruits unto Jehovah , thou shalt offer for the meal-offering of thy first-fruits grain in the ear parched with fire, bruised grain of the fresh ear. 15And thou shalt put oil upon it , and lay frankincense thereon : it is a meal-offering. 16And the priest shall burn the memorial of it , part of the bruised grain thereof , and part of the oil thereof , with all the frankincense thereof : it is an offering made by fire unto Jehovah .
