2:1 And when any will offer a {a} meat offering unto the LORD, his offering shall be [of] fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:
(a) Because the burnt offering could not be without the meat offering.
2:2 And he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests: and {b} he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the priest shall burn the {c} memorial of it upon the altar, [to be] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD:
(b) The priest.
(c) To signify that God remembers him that offers.
2:13 And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the {h} covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
(h) Which they were bound (as by covenant) to use all sacrifices, Numbers 18:192 Chronicles 13:5Ezekiel 43:24 or it means a sure and pure covenant.
