THE MESSAGE
"These are the instructions for the Grain-Offering. Aaron's sons are to present it to God in front of the Altar. The priest takes a handful of the fine flour of the Grain-Offering with its oil and all its incense and burns this as a memorial on the Altar, a pleasing fragrance to God . Aaron and his sons eat the rest of it. It is unraised bread and so eaten in a holy place—in the Courtyard of the Tent of Meeting. They must not bake it with yeast. I have designated it as their share of the gifts presented to me. It is very holy, like the Absolution-Offering and the Compensation-Offering. Any male descendant among Aaron's sons may eat it. This is a fixed rule regarding God 's gifts, stretching down the generations. Anyone who touches these offerings must be holy."

New American Standard Bible (1995)

Contextual Overview

¹⁴Now this is the law of the grain offering: Aaron's sons shall present it before the LORD, in front of the altar.¹⁵The priest is to remove a handful of fine flour and olive oil, together with all the incense from the grain offering, and burn the memorial portion on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the LORD. ¹⁶Aaron and his sons are to eat the remainder. It must be eaten as unleavened, in a holy place; they are to eat it in the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting. ¹⁷It must not be baked with yeast; I have assigned it as their portion of My offerings made by fire. It is most holy, like the sin offering and the guilt offering. ¹⁸Any male among the sons of Aaron may eat it. This is a permanent portion from the offerings made by fire to the LORD for the generations to come. Anything that touches them shall become holy." ¹⁹Then the LORD said to Moses, ²⁰"This is the offering that Aaron and his sons must present to the LORD on the day he is anointed: a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening. ²¹It shall be prepared with oil on a griddle; you are to bring it well-kneaded and present it as a grain offering broken in pieces, a pleasing aroma to the LORD. ²²The priest, who is one of Aaron's sons and will be anointed to take his place, is to prepare it. As a permanent portion for the LORD, it must be burned completely. ²³Every grain offering for a priest shall be burned completely; it is not to be eaten."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And this [is] the law of the meat offering,.... Or the rules to be observed concerning that, for which, though directions are given, Leviticus 2:1, c. yet is here repeated with some additions to it:

the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the Lord being brought unto them by the children of Israel:

before the altar; or at the face of it, for what was properly offered was burnt upon it, as in the following verse Leviticus 6:15: for it should be rather rendered "in", or "on the altar" n; the face of it is the top of it, on which every sacrifice was offered, and not before it.
