Leviticus 2:4-10

The Grain Offering: Consecrated Tribute Before the LORD

The LORD instructs Israel to bring grain offerings prepared with flour, oil, and incense, excluding yeast and honey, including salt, and offering a memorial portion by fire while the remainder supports the priests.

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

4 Now if you bring an offering of grain baked in an oven, it must consist of fine flour, either unleavened cakes mixed with oil or unleavened wafers coated with oil.

5 If your offering is a grain offering prepared on a griddle, it must be unleavened bread made of fine flour mixed with oil.

6 Crumble it and pour oil on it; it is a grain offering.

7 If your offering is a grain offering cooked in a pan, it must consist of fine flour with oil.

8 When you bring to the LORD the grain offering made in any of these ways, it is to be presented to the priest, and he shall take it to the altar.

9 The priest is to remove the memorial portion from the grain offering and burn it on the altar as a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.

10 But the remainder of the grain offering shall belong to Aaron and his sons; it is a most holy part of the food offerings to the LORD.
