Leviticus 2

Leviticus 2:1

Leviticus 2:2

2:2 And he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests: and \ 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 \ 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.

Leviticus 2:3

2:12 As for the oblation of the firstfruits, ye shall offer \ them unto the LORD: but they shall not be burnt \ on the altar for a sweet savour.

(f) That is, fruits which were sweet as honey, ye may offer. (g) But reserved for the priests.

Leviticus 2:13

2:13 And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the \ covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
