Fine Flour and the Memorial Portion
2:1If anyone brings a gift as a sacrifice to the Lord, his gift shall be fine flour. He shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it; it is a sacrifice.
2:2He shall bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests, and grasp from it a full handful of the fine flour with the oil and all its frankincense. The priest shall place its memorial portion on the altar: a sacrifice, a fragrant aroma to the Lord.
2:3What remains of the sacrifice belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is most holy among the Lord’s sacrifices.
Baked and Cooked Offerings
2:4If he brings a gift, a sacrifice baked in an oven, a gift to the Lord, it shall be fine flour: unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers spread with oil.
2:5If your gift is a sacrifice prepared on a griddle, it shall be fine flour mixed with oil, unleavened.
2:6Break them into pieces and pour oil on them; it is a sacrifice to the Lord.
2:7If your gift is a sacrifice prepared on a hearth, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.
2:8He shall bring the sacrifice that he makes from these things to the Lord; he shall bring it to the priest, and, having approached the altar,
2:9the priest shall remove its memorial portion from the sacrifice, and the priest shall place it on the altar: an offering, a fragrant aroma to the Lord.
2:10What remains of the sacrifice belongs to Aaron and his sons; it is most holy among the Lord’s offerings.
Leaven, Honey, Salt, and Firstfruits
2:11No sacrifice that you bring to the Lord shall be made with leaven, for you shall not present any leaven or any honey from it as an offering to the Lord.
2:12You may bring them to the Lord as a gift of firstfruits, but they shall not be brought up on the altar for a fragrant aroma to the Lord.
2:13Every gift of your sacrifice shall be seasoned with salt. Do not let the salt of the Lord’s covenant be missing from your sacrifices; with every gift bring salt to the Lord your God.
2:14If you bring a sacrifice of first produce to the Lord, bring new roasted, crushed groats to the Lord as your sacrifice of first produce.
2:15Pour oil on it and place frankincense on it; it is a sacrifice.
2:16The priest shall offer up its memorial portion, some of the groats with the oil and all the frankincense, as an offering to the Lord.
