Leviticus 9:17 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 9:17

And he brought the meat offering
Made of fine flour, with oil and frankincense put upon it, see ( Leviticus 2:1 ) and took a handful thereof, and burnt [it] upon the altar;
see ( Leviticus 2:2 Leviticus 2:3 ) beside the burnt sacrifice of the morning;
the daily morning sacrifice, which was not to be omitted on account of these extraordinary sacrifices, both for the priest and for the people; or "after the burnt sacrifice of the morning"; for no sacrifice was offered up before that: so Jarchi.
