Leviticus 2:9 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 2:9

And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial
thereof
That is, an handful of it; as of the fine flour, ( Leviticus 2:2 ) so of the pieces of that which was baked, whether in the oven, or pan, or fryingpan:

and shall burn it upon the altar;
the memorial or handful:

[it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord;
(See Gill on Leviticus 1:9).

Leviticus 2:9 In-Context

7 If your grain offering is prepared in a skillet, it will be made of flour with olive oil.

8 "Bring the LORD the grain offering prepared in any of these ways. Offer it to the priest who will bring it to the altar.

9 The priest will remove part of the grain offering and burn it as a reminder on the altar. It is an offering by fire, a soothing aroma to the LORD.

10 The rest of the grain offering belongs to Aaron and his sons. It is very holy, set apart from the LORD's offering by fire.
