The Grain Offering
1‘When anyone offers #Lev. 6:14; 9:17; Num. 15:4a grain offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour. And he shall pour oil on it, and put #Lev. 5:11frankincense on it. 2He shall bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests, one of whom shall take from it his handful of fine flour and oil with all the frankincense. And the priest shall burn #Lev. 2:9; 5:12; 6:15; 24:7; Acts 10:4it as a memorial on the altar, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord. 3#Lev. 7:9The rest of the grain offering shall be Aaron’s and his #Lev. 6:6; 10:12, 13sons’. #Ex. 29:37; Num. 18:9It is most holy of the offerings to the Lord made by fire.
4‘And if you bring as an offering a grain offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers #Ex. 29:2anointed with oil. 5But if your offering is a grain offering baked in a pan, it shall be of fine flour, unleavened, mixed with oil. 6You shall break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.
7‘If your offering is a grain offering baked in a #Lev. 7:9covered pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil. 8You shall bring the grain offering that is made of these things to the Lord. And when it is presented to the priest, he shall bring it to the altar. 9Then the priest shall take from the grain offering #Lev. 2:2, 16; 5:12; 6:15a memorial portion, and burn it on the altar. It is an #Ex. 29:18offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord. 10And #Lev. 2:3; 6:16what is left of the grain offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. It is most holy of the offerings to the Lord made by fire.
11‘No grain offering which you bring to the Lord shall be made with #Ex. 23:18; 34:25; Lev. 6:16, 17; (Matt. 16:12; Mark 8:15; Luke 12:1; 1 Cor. 5:8; Gal. 5:9)leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey in any offering to the Lord made by fire. 12#Ex. 22:29; 34:22; Lev. 23:10, 11, 17, 18As for the offering of the firstfruits, #(Mark 9:49, 50; Col. 4:6)you shall offer them to the Lord, but they shall not be burned on the altar for a sweet aroma. 13And every offering of your grain offering you shall season with salt; you shall not allow #Num. 18:19; 2 Chr. 13:5the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your grain offering. #Ezek. 43:24With all your offerings #Lev. 23:10, 14you shall offer salt.
14‘If you offer a grain offering of your firstfruits to the Lord, you shall offer for the grain offering of your firstfruits green heads of grain roasted on the fire, grain beaten from #2 Kin. 4:42full heads. 15And #Lev. 2:1you shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it. It is a grain offering. 16Then the priest shall burn #Lev. 2:2the memorial portion: part of its beaten grain and part of its oil, with all the frankincense, as an offering made by fire to the Lord.

Leviticus 2

Uncooked Grain Offerings
1 ⌞The Lord continued,⌟ “Now, if any of you bring a grain offering to the Lord, your offering must be flour. Pour olive oil on it, and put incense on it. 2Then bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests. Take from this a handful of flour with olive oil, and all the incense. The priest will burn it on the altar as a reminder. It is an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the Lord. 3The rest of the grain offering will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is very holy, set apart from the Lord’s offering by fire.
Cooked Grain Offerings
4“If you bring a grain offering which has been baked in an oven, it must be rings of unleavened bread made of flour mixed with olive oil or wafers of unleavened bread brushed with olive oil. 5If your grain offering is prepared in a frying pan, it, too, will be unleavened bread made of flour mixed with olive oil. 6Break it into pieces and pour olive oil over it. It is a grain offering. 7If your grain offering is prepared in a skillet, it will be made of flour with olive oil.
8“Bring the Lord the grain offering prepared in any of these ways. Offer it to the priest who will bring it to the altar. 9The priest will remove part of the grain offering and burn it as a reminder on the altar. It is an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the Lord. 10The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons. It is very holy, set apart from the Lord’s offering by fire.
Other Ingredients
11“Every grain offering that you bring to the Lord must be prepared without yeast. Never burn yeast or honey as an offering to the Lord. 12You may bring them to the Lord as offerings of your first products. But they must never be placed on the altar to make a soothing aroma. 13Also put salt on each of your grain offerings. The salt of God’s promise #2:13 Or “covenant.” must never be left out of your grain offerings. Put salt on all your offerings.
Offering the First Grain Harvested
14“If you bring a grain offering to the Lord from the first grain you harvest, roast the cracked grain over fire. 15Put olive oil on it, and place incense on it. It is a grain offering. 16The priest will burn the flour, olive oil, and all the incense as a reminder. It is an offering by fire to the Lord.”
