Leviticus 2:16

The Holy Bible, Berean Study Bible

Contextual Overview

¹¹No grain offering that you present to the LORD may be made with yeast, for you are not to burn any yeast or honey as an offering made by fire to the LORD. ¹²You may bring them to the LORD as an offering of firstfruits, but they are not to be offered on the altar as a pleasing aroma. ¹³And you shall season each of your grain offerings with salt; you must not leave the salt of the covenant of your God out of your grain offering-you are to add salt to each of your offerings. ¹⁴If you bring a grain offering of firstfruits to the LORD, you shall offer crushed heads of new grain roasted on the fire. ¹⁵And you are to put oil and frankincense on it; it is a grain offering. ¹⁶The priest shall then burn the memorial portion of the crushed grain and the oil, together with all its incense, as an offering made by fire to the LORD.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The priest shall burn the memorial of it,.... That which is taken out of it for a memorial, the same with the handful of fine flour and cakes of the meat offering:

part of the beaten corn thereof; or that which was ground in a mill:

and part of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; as was done in the other meat offerings:

it is an offering made by fire unto the Lord, see Leviticus 2:2.
